Cloud Networked Models of Knowledge-Based Intelligent Control Towards Manufacturing as a Service

摘要

This paper describes a 10-year scientific journey in the area of Cloud-based manufacturing in the SOHOMA research community. The tour started in Paris on June 20, 2011 at Ecole Nationale Superieure d'Arts et Metiers, Paris and returns here on 1st October 2020 after annual stops in Bucharest, Valenciennes, Nancy, Cambridge, Lisbon, Nantes, Bergamo and Valencia. Several stages in the evolution of Cloud manufacturing research are recalled in their historical order: vertical enterprise integration and networking; resource and product virtualization and cloud infrastructure design; batch optimization with cloud services; real time big shop floor data streaming, machine learning in the cloud for predictive production control, resource health monitoring and predictive maintenance. Major contributions of SOHOMA authors are evoked: extending the cloud computing model to on demand shop floor resource sharing, infrastructure sharing in cloud networked enterprises, MES workload virtualization, deploying cloud services in real time with virtual machine and containers, high availability solutions and software defined networking, machine learning for predictive manufacturing.
