To confirm the reliability and accuracy of simulation models, physical and virtual processes
are compared. Simulation models, which represent physical processes in the real world in a …

Various communication protocols are necessary for industrial automation in order for
devices and systems to exchange data and control signals [20, 21, 24]. These procedures …

In the development of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs), a model-based approach can be an
efficient way to master system complexity through an iterative development. In this chapter …

Advances in industrial control lead to increasing incorporation of intercommunication
technologies and embedded devices into the production environment. In addition to that, the …

This paper presents a methodology for the development of distributed process simulation
using OPC (OLE for Process Control). The distributed components operate as OPC servers …

This paper demonstrates the flexible methodology of modelling cyber-physical systems
(CPSs) using the INTO-CPS technology through co-simulation based on Functional Mock-up …

Advances in industrial control lead to increasing incorporation of intercommunication
