In the European demonstration Project InterFLEX, five different demonstration sites are realized with a focus on flexibility services from energy generation and demand. The use of flexibility for grid and generation-supply balance management is a key factor in renewable-based electricity systems. However, the way such flexibility services are activated from an Information and Communication Technology (ICT) perspective requires harmonization across Europe. As a step on this way, this paper proposes a methodology based on the Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM) to study cross-demonstrator ICT interoperability and show its application in the InterFLEX context. This is a multi-player environment with Distribution System Operators (DSOs), aggregators, Electric Vehicle (EV) charging operators and other actors, providing a representative overview of contemporary flexibility use and implementation options. In particular, a SGAM clustering approach is set up in order to group devices and actors within common entities. The results of this analysis show that the use-cases and interfaces are comparable between the demos, however the chosen solutions and protocols are manifold and very demonstrator-specific. Future candidates for future selection of interfaces and protocols from an InterFLEX point of view are discussed.

Home Energy Management System creates the scopes to small household electrical appliances users to participate in the demand response programs. Among several load controllable electrical household appliances water heater is more suitable. Integration of water heater is considered to manage the demand response events that can contribute to smart grid technology. This paper represents a thermodynamic load model for a water heater, which is considered as to be controlled through direct load control for demand response program. The daily electricity consumption and temperature profile of the heater is also considered, the direct load control method is activated to the heater as soon as the energy consumption reaches to 1 kW, with the effects the device is turned off for next one hour. In results, it gained a significant reduction in the electricity consumption for the users without making any discomfort as temperature does not reduce to disruption level. Real time electricity pricing is also compared which implied financial benefit to the consumers. The result exhibit that the method applied to this heater can contribute and participate in the demand response events.

A flexible programming and orchestration system for human-robot collaborative tasks is proposed. Five different interaction modes are suggested to test two Task-Managers (TMs) acting as orchestrators between a human co-worker and a robot. Both TMs rely on the task-based programming concept providing modular and scalable capabilities, allowing robot code reuse, fast robot programming and high robot programming flexibility. The TMs provide visual and audio feedback to the user about the robot task sequence being executed, guiding the user during the iterative process. The interaction modes tested were: (1) human arm gestures, (2) human hand gestures, (3) physical contact between human and robot, and (4–5) two hybrid interaction modes combining each one of the two first interaction modes with the last one. Experimental tests indicated that users prefer fast interactions with small number of interaction items to higher flexibility. Both TMs provide intuitive and modular interface for collaborative robots with a human in the loop.

The European industry is currently experiencing a strong transformation under the digital innovations and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. A vast variety of possible solutions for manufacturing companies results in a high heterogeneity of the IT landscape and makes it impossible to meet the increasing requirements that are currently set for modern production systems regarding flexibility, reconfigurability and collaborative behavior. Such specific requirements reveal the lack of architecture standards in the industrial field, especially with regard to connectivity and interoperability in the IoT. Based on the experience gained in a European project, this paper consolidates standardization gaps and needs for the industrial IoT and demands an urgent introduction of new norms and standards driven by the future vision of the IoT transformation.

The digitalization advent is characterized by the increasing availability of huge amounts of data that allows to generate new knowledge to support decision-making, problem solving and process optimization. The successful implementation of this digital transformation strongly depends on the skills and competences that professionals can have in the different dimensions of the multidisciplinary vision associated to the data scientist profile. This paper describes a study, conducted under the scope of the Da.Re Erasmus + project, that surveys the existing trainings paths dedicated to the academic education of data scientists and the required hard and soft skills of the job offers for these professionals. The survey covers three countries of the project consortium, namely Portugal, Italy and UK.

Modern industrial environment control programs are distributed among several devices. The IEC 61499 standard defines function blocks with which distributed control applications may be developed, and how these are interpreted and executed. Its functionality and the inherent support for dynamic reconfiguration provide the required infrastructure for Industry 4.0 and industrial IoT applications. However, by their distributed nature new challenges are posed, especially about how modes of failure are handled. To avoid system malfunctions and breakdowns due to partial failures, the authors propose a new framework were the concept of replication can be applied maintaining internal state synchronised. This paper presents an example of how the replication framework on the FORTE IEC 6499 execution platform can be developed and voting strategies, along with the results obtained in the implementation with the standard communication SIFBs available on the Eclipse 4diac™.

The progressive development of human-robotcollaboration (HRC) during the last decade, and latest in the context of the fourth industrial revolution (Industrie 4.0), opens up a wide range of possibilities for integrating people with disabilities and elderly people in complex production processes. In order to support these user groups by compensating individual limitations, it is necessary to develop new multimodal interaction strategies as well as task allocation and orchestration concepts with special attention to ergonomics, personalization, and adaptability. Our research targets on transforming general work instructions of a HRC work process to individual and useroriented instructions and presenting them using accessible multimodal user interfaces, such that users with disabilities can participate in the process and, in cooperation with the robot, perform value-adding production processes. This publication describes a system approach to meet these requirements, illustrates a possible architecture and validates its suitability for use by presenting an implementation of a proof-of-concept prototype.

Disturbance observer based compensation is a popular technique in motion control to compensate for the difference between an actual plant and its nominal model. Conventional implementation with pseudo derivative performs poorly when the measurement noise is large and the bandwidth has to be decreased. Low pass derivative FIR filters provide a frequency response closer to the ideal response than comparable pseudo derivative filters. This paper proposes a disturbance observer with low pass derivative FIR filter for DC motor with position measurement. The proposal is validated with numerical simulations.
