Experiences and Perspectives from Applying MBSE in Manufacturing
Abstract:
Manufacturing systems, as traditional and early Cyber-Physical Systems, are evolving towards new technologies, processes and business models. Examples of new features include adaptive and reconfigurable assembly, use of additive manufacturing, and digitalization all the way from smart components to cloud computing. In this talk we focus on the use of MBSE approaches related to, (1) life cycle data integration and, (2) cyber based hardware in the loop real-time applications in cloud manufacturing. Case studies and experiences will be presented.

Biography:
Lihui Wang is a Professor and Chair of Sustainable Manufacturing at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden. His research interests are focused on cyber-physical systems, cloud manufacturing, web-based real-time monitoring and remote control, and human-robot collaborations. The ultimate goal of his research is to achieve better sustainability in factories of the future. In addition to research, Professor Wang is actively engaged in professional activities. He is the Editor-in-Chief of International Journal of Manufacturing Research, Editor of Robotics and Computer-Integrated Manufacturing, Editor (Europe) of Journal of Intelligent Manufacturing, and Associate Editor of Journal of Manufacturing Systems. He is a Fellow of SME (Society of Manufacturing Engineers), a Fellow of ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers), an Associate Member of CIRP (International Academy for Production Engineering), a Board Director of North American Manufacturing Research Institution, and a registered Professional Engineer (PE) in Canada. He has published seven books and authored in excess of 300 scientific articles in archival journals and refereed conference proceedings. His accomplishment has won him 16 international and institutional awards.
Martin Törngren is Professor in Embedded Control Systems at KTH, Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden. Martin Törngren has been a Professor at the Mechatronics division of the KTH, Department of Machine Design, since 2002. He has particular interest in Cyber-Physical Systems, model based engineering, architectural design, systems integration, functional safety, and co-design of control applications and embedded systems. He has authored/co-authored more than 100 peer reviewed publications, and also been in charge of developing and leading graduate and continued education courses including development of educational programs in mechatronics and embedded systems. He spent time as a post-doc at the EU-JRC and did a sabbatical (2011/12) at Berkeley, University of California. In 1996 he co-founded the company Fengco Real-time Control AB, specializing in advanced tools for developers of embedded control systems and related consultancy. In 1994 he received the SAAB-Scania award for qualified contributions in distributed control systems and in 2004 the ITEA achievement award for contributions in the EAST-EEA project. He served as the technical coordinator of the iFEST ARTEMIS project with 21 partners (2010-2013). Networking and multidisciplinary research have been characteristic throughout his career. From 1999-2004 he served as the Chairman of the Swedish real-time systems association, and he has represented KTH as a core partner in the EU networks of excellence in Embedded systems design, Artist2 and ArtistDesign, and in the Artemis industrial association. He is moreover the principal initiator and Director of the Innovative Centre for Embedded Systems (www.ices.kth.se), launched in 2008, now with 25 industrial member organizations.
