“…Some studies specific to the process control engineering domain also covered the early design of control systems, for example, the approaches proposed by Hästbacka et al 10 and Pang et al 35 In their works, requirements are modelled according to the P&ID IEC 62424 standard; 36 then, corresponding component networks which realize the requirements are automatically generated via model transformations. Considering the specificity of this domain, these approaches cannot be applied to the distributed manufacturing system development.…”

To satisfy rising flexibility and reconfigurability, the combination of system design and control software design has been adopted as a common paradigm for engineering manufacturing systems. However, there is still a lack of efficient approaches to automating the projection from the system design to the control software dimension. In this study, a model-driven approach is proposed to generate the control logic design based on the IEC 61499 Function Block from the system design in SysML. First, the system design model is formally defined to be unambiguously interpreted. Second, the SysML-FB profile is defined based on which control logic can be modelled in compliance with the IEC 61499 Function Block in the unified SysML modelling environment. Third, transformation rules between these two models are proposed, according to which a distributed event-driven control logic design can be automatically generated. This approach is implemented as a computer-aided design tool extended from the mainstream SysML modelling platform MagicDraw and illustrated using a computer numerical control bending machine as the case study.

“…IV. USE CASE: ORCHESTRATION FROM PROCESS & INSTRUMENTATION DIAGRAM Pang et al [26] have shown how a system described by an IEC 62424 Process and Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID) can be formally transformed to IEC 61499 applications. Using part of the P&ID in their example to create a Plant Description, it can then be used to illustrate how orchestration rules might be generated for a System-of-System, based on service interactions.…”

Abstract-Tackling current challenges in production automation requires the involvement of new concepts like Internet of Things, System-of-Systems and local automation clouds. The objective of this paper is to address the actual process of defining a cloud based automation system. More specifically the design, engineering, operation and maintenance of an automation system must be captured and managed between all stakeholders involved. This is critical to create the expected benefits from the local automation cloud approach.This paper addresses the capability of capturing plant designs and coordinating information exchange based on the captured architecture. For this purpose an architectural componentPlant Description -is proposed to be used in the Arrowhead Framework, based on already existing plant automation standards. An overview of methodologies on how it can interact with the Arrowhead Framework's Orchestration process describes the usefulness in managing large-scale automation systems. A qualitative evaluation for one of the proposed approaches is also described in a water control use case that can be found both in process and building automation.

“…For the area of software engineering in industrial automation Vyatkin [7] presents an overview of the current solutions and concepts, where the role of standards such as IEC 61499 [8] and IEC 61850 [9] are highlighted, and the use of modeldriven software engineering in automation is presented as one of the compelling paths for further development in the area. One example of model-driven software engineering that uses structured standards would be the method presented by Pang et al [10] for how the Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID's) following the standard IEC 62424 [11] can be translated into IEC 61499 Function Blocks (FB's) commonly used in programming automation systems for the process industry.…”

Abstract-The emergence and deployment of connected devices in many domains of application (e.g. industrial production, buildings and facilities, urban environment, etc.) have resulted in the need to achieve integration of multiple and more complex systems. This new environment is stressing the intrinsic limits imposed by monolithic standards, data models and integration methods that focus on specific domains of application, types of systems, or specific aspects of a system. This paper describes the Plant Description Service developed as part of the Arrowhead Interoperability framework (EU ECSEL funded project). The manuscript contains a description of the abstract system descriptive model based on which the Plant Description service was implemented, and describes how the service can be used to achieve integration of several industry standards and data models. One use case and one case study is provided that illustrates how the service was practically implemented to support engineering scenarios in the domain of industrial production. The paper concludes with a critical review of the approach and suggestion for future work and developments.
