Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Industry 4.0 is the current trend for automation and data exchange in manufacturing technologies and includes cyber-physical systems, the Internet of Things, cloud computing, and cognitive computing. It is commonly referred to as the fourth industrial revolution, and industrial systems, including smart factories, transportation systems, robotic systems, and power systems, are becoming more complex as they are generally composed of a number of interconnected systems and/or have highly nonlinear dynamics. Furthermore, various disturbances such as external disturbance, modeling uncertainties, and parameter uncertainties may cause the degradation of the system and control performance. Thus, it is challenging to develop effective techniques in control and modeling for intelligent industrial systems. This Special Issue aims to collect original research and review articles that report on results focused on robust control and dynamics modeling methodologies for intelligent industrial systems. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Novel modeling and validation techniques for intelligent industrial systems
  • Advanced modeling techniques for evolution and degradation of dynamic systems
  • Prognosis and health management for complex dynamic systems
  • Estimation for industrial systems
  • Advanced control for industrial systems
  • Real-time implementation for modeling and control approaches
  • Application and integration of various techniques such as linear and nonlinear system approaches, hybrid system and switching system approaches, networked system approaches, game theory, and knowledge-based methods

Production systems are changing in many aspects on the way to a Factory of the Future, including the level of automation and communication between components. Besides all benefits, this evolution raises the amount, effect and type of anomalies and unforeseen behavior to a new level of complexity. Thus, new detection and mitigation concepts are required. Based on a use-case dealing with a distributed transportation system for production environments, this paper describes the different sources of possible anomalies with the same effect, anomaly detection methods and related mitigation techniques. Depending on the identified anomaly, the FoF should react accordingly, such as fleet or AGV reconfiguration, strong authentication and access control or a deletion of adversarial noises. In this paper, different types of mitigation actions are described that support the fleet in overcoming the effect of the anomaly or preventing them in the future. A concept to select the most appreciate mitigation method is presented, where the detection of the correct source of the anomaly is key. This paper shows how various techniques can work together to gain a holistic view on anomalies in the Factory of the Future for selecting the most appropriate mitigation technique. Full article
