Knowledge-Based Technologies for Future Factory Engineering and Control

  • Chapter
Service Orientation in Holonic and Multi Agent Manufacturing and Robotics

Part of the book series: Studies in Computational Intelligence ((SCI,volume 472))

Abstract

Knowledge-based Automation has been a major trend in factory engineering and control research over the last years. In this paper, the main challenges addressed by knowledge-based production systems are identified and the state of the art in supporting factory engineering and control with knowledge-based technologies is investigated. The paper concludes with a discussion of white spots in the research landscape. While there is comprehensive research on applying knowledge-based technology to individual problems such as disruption detection or reactive production planning, the interaction and dependencies between those solutions is less well investigated – although a combined solution is inevitable for addressing real world challenges.
