The Internet of Things (IoT) has become a hot topic in both technical and non-technical conversation. The analyst has forecasted that over 26 billion things (devices and people) will be connected to a giant network (IoT) by the year 2030. The IoT can be defined as, “A huge network of interconnected things; things may be small devices, big machines and also includes people”. With the interconnected network, communication can occur between things-things, things-people, and people-people.  How does it work? IoT devices collect, assemble, and share the data by utilizing the environment in which they are working and implant. Collection and transmission of data in IoT devices is done by using various sensors. Nowadays, almost all physical devices have some sensor/s embedded into it.

Technological Limitations Key CPS Technologies: Agents, SOA, Cloud Currently, there is a technology push into complexity, with everything getting smart, e.g., phones, houses, cars, aircrafts, factories, cities etc. As an example, the functionalities and consequently complexity associated can be seen by a system comparison. Example: The early past century plane and a modern Airbus (A380) Aircraft. Although both have the common goal of flying, one could be realized by monitoring a couple of sensors and the modern aircraft has thousands of sensors which is impossible to assess for humans. However, with the automation and creation of high-level key performance indicators from the sensor data, this can still stay manageable at high level, although not all interworking are directly seen nor understood by its operators.  As depicted in Figure 1, there are several areas that share common ground, e.g., software agents, Internet of Things, CPS, cooperating objects etc. These have co evolved over the last decades, and although some of these are used interchangeably (in places), there are differences among them. In our view, what differentiates them is the varying mix of the degree of physical and feature elements that creates the right recipe for a specific area. For instance, Cooperating Objects focus mostly on the cooperation aspects while considering the rest of the available features only as enabling factors to achieve cooperation. Other approaches, e.g., Internet of Things, focus mostly on the interaction and integration part while cooperation is optional. Similarly, CPS may pose a different mix of the key features and depend on their utilization domain.  WSN: Wireless Sensor Network PLC: Programmable Logic Controller RFID: Radio Frequency Identification RTU: Remote terminal units Figure 1. The mix of physical systems and features as a basis for CPS CPS are centered on the use of several technologies, namely MAS, SOA and cloud systems. 1. Agents An agent can be defined as “an autonomous component, that represents physical or logical objects in the system, capable to act in order to achieve its goals, and being able to interact with other agents, when it doesn’t possess knowledge and skills to reach alone its objectives”. Since rare applications consider agents in an isolated manner, these systems form multi agent systems, concept inherited from distributed artificial intelligence field, which can be defined as “a society of agents that represent the objects of a system, capable of interacting to achieve their individual goals when they have not enough knowledge and/or skills to achieve individually their objectives”. Figure 2.

Combining agents with IEC 61131 3 IEC 61131 (communication function blocks) and IEC 61499 (communication service interface function blocks).  2. Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is an architectural pattern in software design where services are provided to the components of a network through a communication protocol over a network. SOA aims to allow different services to communicate with each other and to enable the creation of complex applications by combining simple, reusable, and loosely coupled services. Examples:  1.

Process Steps: Preheat (The PCB is gradually heated to activate flux in the solder paste) Soak Zone (Temperature is held constant to ensure uniform heat distribution) Reflow Zone (Temperature peaks to melt the solder, forming joints) Cooling Zone (The PCB is gradually cooled to solidify the solder joints) Post-Reflow Inspection X-Ray Inspection (For BGA (Ball Grid Array) components where solder joints are hidden) AOI Systems (Visual inspection of accessible joints for defects) 4. Electronic Assembly The electronic assembly process after the reflow soldering stage in PCB manufacturing is a crucial step that ensures the integrity and functionality of the assembled circuit board. This phase involves several key operations, including inspection, testing, and additional assembly, which may be necessary to finalize the PCB for its intended application. Quality demands and Cost reduction In modern electronics production, balancing quality demands with cost reduction is critical for maintaining competitiveness. CPS play a pivotal role in achieving this balance by integrating physical processes with digital technologies, enabling real-time monitoring, optimization, and automation. 1. Real-Time Monitoring and Control Quality Demands Cost Reduction Precision and Accuracy Minimized Waste Immediate Feedback Energy Efficiency Precision and Accuracy CPS enables continuous monitoring of production parameters (e.g., temperature, humidity, alignment) to ensure that each process step meets exact specifications. This reduces the likelihood of defects and ensures consistent product quality. Immediate Feedback Sensors and IoT devices provide real-time feedback, allowing immediate adjustments if deviations from quality standards are detected, preventing defects before they propagate through the production line. Minimized Waste Real-time monitoring reduces material waste by detecting and correcting issues early in the process. For example, in PCB manufacturing, precise control over soldering temperatures can prevent defective joints, saving material and rework costs. Energy Efficiency Continuous monitoring also helps optimize energy use, turning off machines or reducing power consumption when full operation isn’t necessary.  2. Predictive Maintenance Quality Demands Cost Reduction Reduced Downtime Lower Maintenance Costs Optimal Equipment Performance Reduced Scrap Rates Reduced Downtime Predictive maintenance, enabled by CPS, uses data analytics to predict when equipment is likely to fail. By servicing machines before they break down, production interruptions are minimized, maintaining consistent quality. Optimal Equipment Performance Ensuring that machines are always in optimal working condition improves the quality of output, as well-maintained equipment operates within its designed parameters. Lower Maintenance Costs Predictive maintenance reduces the frequency of costly emergency repairs and extends the lifespan of equipment, lowering overall maintenance expenses. Reduced Scrap Rates By maintaining machines in top condition, CPS reduces the likelihood of producing defective products that would otherwise need to be scrapped.  3. Automation and Robotics Quality Demands Cost Reduction Consistency and Precision Labor Cost Savings Enhanced Inspection Higher Throughput Consistency and Precision Automation reduces human error by standardizing processes. Robotic systems, guided by CPS, can perform highly precise tasks such as component placement in electronics assembly, ensuring uniform quality across large production runs. Enhanced Inspection Automated inspection systems, integrated with CPS, can quickly identify defects that may be too subtle for human inspectors, such as microscopic cracks in semiconductor wafers. Labor Cost Savings Automation reduces the need for manual labor, lowering labor costs while increasing productivity. For instance, automated pick-and-place machines in electronics manufacturing can operate continuously, boosting output without increasing labor expenses. Higher Throughput By increasing the speed of production without sacrificing quality, automation helps achieve economies of scale, further reducing per-unit production costs.  4. Digital Twins and Simulation Quality Demands Cost Reduction Process Optimization Reduced Trial-and-Error Defect Prediction Design for Manufacturability Process Optimization Digital twins—virtual models of physical processes—allow manufacturers to simulate and optimize production workflows before implementing them on the factory floor. This ensures that processes are fine-tuned for quality before actual production begins. Defect Prediction By simulating the production environment, digital twins can predict potential defects based on current settings and suggest adjustments, enhancing product quality. Reduced Trial-and-Error By using simulations, manufacturers can reduce the need for costly trial-and-error testing in the physical world. This saves material and time, reducing overall production costs. Design for Manufacturability Digital twins can also optimize product designs to make them easier and cheaper to produce while maintaining high quality, reducing both production and material costs.  5. Supply Chain Optimization Quality Demands Cost Reduction Material Quality Tracking Inventory Management Traceability Just-in-Time (JIT) Production Material Quality Tracking CPS allows for end-to-end tracking of materials, ensuring that only high-quality components are used in production. This is particularly important in industries like medical electronics, where component quality directly affects product performance. Traceability CPS enables traceability throughout the supply chain, allowing manufacturers to quickly identify and address quality issues related to specific batches of raw materials or components. Inventory Management By optimizing supply chain logistics, CPS reduces the need for large inventories, lowering storage costs and minimizing waste from unused materials. Just-in-Time (JIT) Production CPS enables JIT production by coordinating supply chain activities in real-time. This reduces the capital tied up in inventory and minimizes the risk of obsolescence, cutting overall costs.  6. Data-Driven Process Improvement Quality Demands Cost Reduction Continuous Improvement Process Efficiency Customer Feedback Integration Reduced Cycle Time Continuous Improvement CPS facilitates the collection and analysis of vast amounts of production data. This data can be used to continuously improve processes, identifying areas where quality can be enhanced. Customer Feedback Integration Data from customer feedback can be integrated into the production process to make adjustments that improve product quality based on real-world usage. Process Efficiency By analyzing production data, CPS can identify inefficiencies or bottlenecks, allowing manufacturers to streamline operations and reduce costs. Reduced Cycle Time Data-driven improvements can also reduce cycle times, increasing the overall throughput and reducing per-unit production costs.  7. Customization at Scale Quality Demands Cost Reduction Tailored Products Efficient Customization Flexible Quality Control Waste Reduction Tailored Products CPS allows for mass customization, where products can be tailored to specific customer needs without compromising quality. This is crucial in industries where personalized electronics are in demand. Flexible Quality Control CPS adapts quality control processes to handle varied products, ensuring that customized items meet the same quality standards as mass-produced ones. Efficient Customization By using flexible production lines and modular systems, CPS reduces the cost of producing customized products, making it more affordable to offer personalized options at scale.
