Abstract:One challenge for the designers of the current industrial control systems consists of assuring the system reconfiguration at runtime, envisaged at system design time. This article focuses specifically on the fault tolerance to controller failures (as it is the most complex challenge) aiming at redistributing the responsibilities at runtime in order to finish the current production plan. Its applicability is illustrated by means of a case study that consists of a reconfigurable control application based on the … Show more
