Control-as-a-Service: Resilient feedback control systems for Industry 4.0 based on Commercial-Off-The-Shelf components and cloud platforms

The proposed project addresses the challenge of realizing highly time-sensitive and mission-critical feedback control systems for Industry 4.0 in the clouds. However, to take advantage of the cloud, rather than adapting the clouds to the control systems, we approach the problem by adapting the control systems to the cloud. The project proposes to address system performance, architecture, and management challenges associated with realizing a so-called Control-as-a-Service. The project is highly cross-disciplinary and the first of its kind in ELLIIT and it will be a starting point for a larger project.
