Aim:
The aim of the course is to offer the students an overview of the future trends in factory technologies. After the course the students should be able to:
- Understand the main technical and conceptual challenges related with the 4th Industrial revolution.
<>
- Understand the role of reference architectures as blueprints for creating cyber-physical production systems.
- Use the Unified Modeling Language to describe a reference architecture.
- Use the adequate software tools to implement cyber-physical production systems at a prototype scale.

Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Production Engineering
It is recommended that the students have some general notions of industrial automation
Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

|
Organisation:
The course will consist of lectures and laboratory exercises. The lectures covering the different topics provide the supporting conceptual background that will be applied in the laboratory exercises. The laboratory exercises consolidate the knowledge acquired on the lectures by providing an â?ohands on" experience whereby the students implement a prototype that demonstrates and adaptive system and flexible system using the latest available technologies in industrial communication and automation systems most of which may still be in a prototype stage.

Course contents:
The lectures will cover the following topics course it will focus on the following topics:
- The fourth industrial revolution
- Emerging IT-based system paradigms and architectures for hyper-flexible systems.
- Design and modelling of hyper-flexible modular production systems.
- Autonomous and Self-organizing systems
- Plug and Produce Systems
- Agent-based Systems
- Service Oriented Architectures
- Cyber-physical Production Systems
- Cloud Computing in a manufacturing Context (â?oCloud Manufacturing")
- Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Production
The laboratories will include tutorials on the use of specific industrial IT technologies that will support the subsequent laboratorial assignments.
