Authentic and confidential, but at the same time traceable and transparent, data exchange among multiple stakeholders is a key challenge in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications. Specifically, smart service connectivity requires the secure and transparent acquisition of equipment status information, which we call snapshots, from globally distributed equipment instances at customer sites by the equipment vendor. Related work has proposed to use a Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) Broker and hardware-secured Transport Layer Security (TLS) with client authentication. However, this approach lacks strong cryptographic end-to-end protection of snapshots. Here we show a hardware-rooted snapshot protection system that utilizes a Broker-based messaging infrastructure, hybrid encryption and a single-pass Elliptic Curve Menezes-Qu-Vanstone (ECMQV) scheme. We evaluate our concept by means of a prototype implementation and discuss security and performance implications. Our approach provides strong end-to-end data protection, while at the same time enabling customers to trace what data has been transferred off their equipment. We believe that our concept can serve as a template for a multitude of Industrial Internet of Things applications, which by their very nature call for strong security.

VANETs apply new generation wireless technology to vehicles to provide additional safety features for the driver. There are, however, a lot of connectivity issues related to VANETs so a system which combines both online and offline capabilities would thus be more robust. This paper explores an autonomous vehicular actuator control system which would form part of a larger VANET system but provide offline following functionality. When a communication link is not required, the system can follow different cars with little to no modification to the lead vehicle. It was found that it is possible to have an offline vehicle following system designed with inexpensive sensors.

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) require tools that enable development of design methodology that supports analysis and modeling of Interaction Dynamics of Concurrent Processes (IDCP) represented by the measurement data provided by smart acquisition systems. In this paper, are presented some results of the project aiming at the development of algorithms and software tools that could detect short-lived temporal interaction of concurrent processes. The analysis is performed in time-frequency domain using wavelet tools. Some possibilities of such analysis are presented using an example of coherence investigation of concurrent biomedical processes.

The role of human in the Industrie 4.0 vision is still considered as irreplaceable. Therefore, user interfaces of cyber-physical systems involved in the production automation need to be well designed and taking into consideration the industrial application requirements. With the advances in augmented and virtual reality data visualization and novel interaction techniques like mid-air gestures, these approaches seem to be suitable for integration into the industry environment. This paper describes the implementation of an augmented reality application for smart glasses with mid-air gestures and smart phone with touch interaction to compare and evaluate the usage of such interfaces in a production cell comprising an industrial robot.

Most research on the mathematical modelling of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have focussed mainly on the optimization aspects, such as those relating to sensor placements, data routing, reliability, etc. Surprisingly the issue relating to performance analysis of data processing and transmission at the nodes, have not received as much attention. A considerable amount of delay to data actually happens at the nodes as a result of queue build up. Hence, understanding the role of queueing in WSN modelling is very important. In this paper we study the literature of queueing as applied to WSNs and provide insight to the current state of the art and directions for the future. The utilization of queueing theory in WSNs is broadly classified into four categories, namely, congestion control methods, power allocation schemes, network performance evaluation techniques and scheduling schemes.

I investigate the chromatic aberration of full-color optical scanning holography (OSH) and propose a digital filtering technique that compensates the chromatic aberration. The focal lengths and the extents of Red, Green and Blue (RGB) time-dependent Fresnel zone plates (TD-FZPs) which encode the RGB complex holograms depend on wavelengths of RGB beams. This generates chromatic aberration in full-color OSH. A digital filtering technique that matches the focal lengths and the extents of the recorded RGB holograms is proposed to eliminate the chromatic aberration in full-color OSH.

Global competition exhibits a strong pressure on organizations to optimize production processes and increase production flexibility. For example, to improve maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) processes of industrial equipment, an Internet-based data exchange system and backend workflow processing is required. Thereby an equipment vendor gathers field intelligence from equipment on customer premises worldwide. With the acquired data, smart services can be offered. Here, equipment maintenance tasks can be anticipated and thus on-premise equipment maintenance can be scheduled proactively. However, related work has focused mainly on two aspects. On the one hand, how to enable Internet-connectivity for legacy equipment has been investigated. One the other hand, the secure data acquisition systems have been presented. To address both aspects, Broker-based systems have been proposed. But related work does not address possible Broker architectures or the backend processing of data. Thus, in this work we investigate Broker- and backend-related aspects. First, we discuss topic structuring and access restriction. Second, we elaborate on different Broker placement architectures. Finally, we discuss and evaluate the design and implementation of an overall system and detail two concrete backend workflows.

In this paper, a cloud-based collaborative manufacturing network platform is proposed. The platform enables supply network partners situated in different geographic locations to have access to the OEM's planning data allowing to carry out purchase, production and deliver planning activities simultaneously and collaboratively, on any operating system. The proposed solution integrates the OEMs' legacy systems and IoT devices, offering optimization functionality and collaboration tools. The benefit of the presented approach is that there is no need for the OEMs to invest in complex IT infrastructures. This results in substantial saving in cost, production management time and, also, significant improvement in OEMs' agility to changes in a supply network environment.

Online short texts of hot topics submitted to social media by users can provide valuable personal opinions, which are useful for service providers and individuals. However, it is difficult for readers to grasp the main opinions of massive short texts. In this paper, to cope with the summarization challenge of short texts, we proposed a novel approach, which makes full use of BM25 to weight each short text and syntactic parsing to generate important information of each opinion cluster. The approach also utilizes the feature pruning to reduce the dimensions of the vectors. We conduct our experiments on real datasets and evaluate the results by standard metrics and manual evaluation. The experimental results show that our proposed approach improves the accuracy when compared to the state-of-the-art method.

In this paper, we lay the foundation for a specialized Intelligent Control System (ICS) for district heating plants and investigate the problem of integrating particular knowledge into the developed system. In particular, we consider the fuzzy logic based control module. Based on control system knowledge, a particular control loop is developed and successfully implemented on a live industrial heating plant. The resulting automatic control system improves the performance of the existing control loop, allows to prolong the lifespan of industrial equipment by allowing to maintain it in a nominal operating condition, and alleviates the necessity for frequent manual control override by heating plant operators. The obtained knowledge forms a valuable asset to the ICS as a part of the corresponding module.
