Contextual Knowledge Content Driving for Model of Cyber Physical System

Abstract

Essential change of industrial products was their development towards cyber physical system (CPS) during the past decade. Model of these complex multidisciplinary product structures required completing the conventional physical level with system levels. At the same time, higher-level engineering for CPS demanded completing the usual engineering processes by research activities. By now, generic self-adaptive engineering model system can serve all activities during innovation and life cycles of industrial products to fulfill the above new requirements. The Laboratory of Intelligent Engineering Systems at Obuda University recognized importance of engineering model system for CPS. One of the main research issues at this laboratory is replacing the increasingly complex interactive model entity definition by knowledge drive using reusable knowledge accumulated in intellectual property of a project, a company or an institution. For this purpose, new structure of driving knowledge content was proposed as integrated part of engineering model system. This paper introduces rearranged and redefined content structure to serve system-based engineering model of CPS and driving contexts with cyber units of CPS. Results is placed in the concept of lifecycle cyber physical system of systems (LCPSoS). Multilayer structures are proposed for driving contexts which come from outside of engineering model system.
