CIM focuses on the organizational structures of different components within the smart grid while IEC 61850 focuses on the structure of information exchanges between field devices and systems. CIM can possibly be used for power system domain ontology and indeed for physical modeling too. On the other hand, the IEC 61850-7-420 defines object classes for assets such as Distributed Energy Resource (DER) which may include solar generation, storage, diesel generators etc., DER unit controllers, and other DER-associated power electronic devices (e.g., inverter). These object classes describe asset-specific attributes such as type of assets, set points, state of charge, limits, and ramp rate etc. While acknowledging the cumbersomeness involved in IEC 61850 engineering, there is a need to develop an easily engineer-able and interoperable system that would achieve the efficient operation of microgrid control system. In this paper, we have modelled a subset of microgrid system using different semantic models and tried to formulate the ontology to achieve an intended interoperable information model. The proposed model generation and deployment would achieve easy integration and autonomous operation of devices from different vendors with different information models.","PeriodicalId":6566,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 23rd International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation (ETFA)","volume":"55 1","pages":"1391-1398"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85322861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, high-interconnectivity among all objects introduce new security concerns and challenges. Security is not a product, but a process. Security tests and audits have to constantly be accomplished. Once a security flaw is detected, a software patch fixing the security weakness could be then produced. This continuous security evaluation, which is iterative, might be expensive. In this paper, a novel vulnerability discovery approach is presented: Hadros. The particularity of the proposed design is that security tests are distributively executed among all the deployed IoT/IIoT nodes and performed at the idle time of the system, while runtime. Hadros is suitable and advantageous for the IoT and IIoT era, due to the fact that testing coverage is broadly increased as more devices are incorporated. Meanwhile, resources employed by the security researchers are also significantly reduced.","PeriodicalId":6566,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 23rd International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation (ETFA)","volume":"14 1","pages":"948-955"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88093991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing algorithms in artificial intelligence planning are applied to solve process planning and scheduling problems. The challenge is to model the manufacturing system and products in a way that automated planners can generate efficiently process plans and schedules. Hence, based on a general classification of operations, different modeling options with regard to a successful automated process planning and scheduling are discussed. As a result, a domain modeling approach for discrete manufacturing is presented.","PeriodicalId":6566,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 23rd International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation (ETFA)","volume":"6 1","pages":"464-471"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88702938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Early-stage product quality estimation is identified as one of the solutions that can significantly reduce manufacturing cost and wastage. However, quality estimation is a classification problem that is inherently challenging for traditional data-driven algorithms due to its imbalanced nature. In this paper, a framework is proposed, that combines the feature extraction capabilities of convolutional neural networks and the domain knowledge characteristics of fuzzy systems. The proposed method addresses data imbalance using an ensemble of class-biased individuals, that learn features using a class-weighted loss function. Experiments were conducted using a benchmark dataset and production data acquired from the semiconductor industry. Improvements were noted for G-Mean and ROC-AVC values when compared to existing algorithms.","PeriodicalId":6566,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 23rd International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation (ETFA)","volume":"7 1","pages":"615-622"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88713259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A Moving Average control chart (also known as a Moving Mean chart) is applied in order to detect the variation of mean duration. The advantages of the proposed analysis are to detect variations in time series when parameters vary slowly and to isolate the faults thanks to the signature table.","PeriodicalId":6566,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 23rd International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation (ETFA)","volume":"44 1","pages":"493-498"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72815383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As self driving cars are expected to take over the roads, this paper discusses the intermediate phase in which manned and unmanned cars coexist. A heterogeneous network architecture that simultaneously serves manned and unmanned cars' different requirements in a suburban area is proposed and simulated using Riverbed Modeler. The feasibility of this architecture is examined in three different scenarios: Normal operation, congestion in both directions and Road Side Units (RSU) failure. In normal operation mode, traffic data is sent through Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure/Infrastructure-to-Vehicle (V2I/I2V or to RSU) using IEEE 802.11p and infotainment information is communicated as V2I/I2V using Long Term Evolution (LTE). A special case is highlighted and tested, in which congestion is in both directions. In such situation, data needs to be relayed to the nearest RSU using multi-hop communication. A fault-tolerant model is also proposed and analyzed in case of failure of RSU. The performance metrics are end-to-end delay, LTE response time, handover delay and packet loss ratio. The architecture proves its suitability by satisfying traffic control real time application requirements.","PeriodicalId":6566,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 23rd International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation (ETFA)","volume":"12 1","pages":"918-925"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90781496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The models have the advantage of being directly exploitable by means of synthesis tools. To obtain the minimum makespan and optimal schedules as the result, a time-optimal reachability game is performed through Tiga tool.

Due to continuous production, release dates and due dates are considered to minimize job tardiness. Using known large-scale benchmark instances, sixteen neighborhood structures are validated to find a practical compromise between solution quality and computational effort. The result is a novel combination of neighborhoods for simultaneous sequencing, routing and batching that finds good schedules for problem instances of industrial size and complexity in an acceptable time.","PeriodicalId":6566,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 23rd International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation (ETFA)","volume":"66 1","pages":"472-479"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77063873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
