Abstract

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are creating new market opportunities and business models for all kind of European Industries. CPS-based platforms are increasing in their size and target application areas in a steady manner. However, even if progress is made every day supported by continuous technological advancements, CPS application and deployment is still challenging. Many solutions have been made available or is currently under development in several research projects/ initiatives. Typically, these solutions show no interoperability between each other and are tailored to a specific application context. Thus, there is an urgent need for a clear definition of what a CPS-populated system actually is. This will provide a common ground for designing and building interoperable CPS-populated systems. Interoperability represents one of the most challenging problems for such systems essentially due to their intrinsic characteristics: heterogeneity, distribution and networked. These must be addressed to allow the cooperation and collaboration between all the actors of the system. In this landscape, the MANTIS project is aimed to provide a reference model for interoperable and interconnected CPS-populated systems for maintenance-related ecosystems, which is the focus of this paper.
