A BPMN extension for modeling Cyber-Physical-Production-Systems in the context of Industry 4.0

摘要

Industry 4.0 denotes a recent trend that aims at exploiting Cyber Physical Systems (CPS), based on IoT (Internet of Things) and cloud computing technologies, to obtain increased degrees of cooperation and communication in production systems, thus leading to what is referred to as Cyber Physical Production Systems (CPPS) or “Smart Factories”.
