As a new kind of networked manufacturing mode, Cloud Manufacturing needs to construct a large-scale virtual manufacturing resources pool firstly. For a reasonable and effective construction of the virtual manufacturing resources pool, the point of multi-granularity virtualization is proposed. Firstly, by analyzing the process of resources virtualization, the meanings of manufacturing resources, virtualization modeling and virtualization accessing are stated, and the relationships between them are illustrated; secondly, by analyzing the compositionality of resources, two resources categories are deduced; thirdly, the granularity factor, which have serious impacts on the resources-virtualization, resources-matching and resources-scheduling, are discussed; finally, a multi-granularity virtualization method of manufacturing resources is proposed.

Surviving in an increasing globalization, distribution and flexibility environment, modern manufacturing requires an extremely flexible, self-adaptive foundation capable of dynamic provisioning, coordinating and using infinite manufacturing resources available on demand over large-scale computer networks. In contrast to the conventional networked manufacturing approach, the cloud manufacturing vision (GetCM) introduced in this paper promises elasticity, flexibility and adaptability through the on-demand provisioning of manufacturing resources as a utility by reflecting the basic principles of cloud computing. The discussion is made from technological, functional, economic aspects to provide evidence of the benefits from GetCM in the context of networked manufacturing resource access, provision, sharing and coordination. A primary architecture for GetCM is introduced based on the analysis of key criteria in realizing the vision of a function for cloud manufacturing. Focuses of this paper are placed on the vision and the outline of GetCM architecture.

To solve manufacturing resources heterogeneous description and matching problems on cloud manufacturing mode,manufacturing resources modeling and matching technology based on semantic was proposed. The modeling method based on manufacturing feature for manufacturing resources by ontology semantic was presented. Manufacturing resources based on manufacturing feature were encapsulated as manufacturing capacity which can be catch with manufacturing feature of product by semantic similarity. Mapping rules were structured between feature of manufacturing capacity and manufacturing feature of products. Manufacturing capacity evaluation of enterprise was achieved. An application prototype with manufacturing resources modeling and matching based on manufacturing feature was developed.

Based on the concept of Cloud Computing, a new service-oriented, high efficiency low consumption, knowledge-based, and intelligent networked agile manufacturing model Cloud Manufacturing (CMfg) has been proposed recently. The manufacturing resources optimization allocation model (MROAM) is one of the core parts for implementing CMfg. In this paper, a new MROAM is proposed in the background of CMfg system. In this model, variable metrics such as a variety of evaluation indicators for different types of manufacturing services are taken into account. In addition, time, cost, virtual manufacturing resource interface, and so on constrains are considered as well. To solve the manufacturing resources optimization allocation problem, a new improved intelligent algorithm named Kmeans-PSO was presented by combining the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm and the K-means clustering. Experiment results demonstrate the effectiveness of the designed algorithm and show Kmeans-PSO’s high performances for addressing the manufacturing resources allocation problem compared with other intelligent algorithms.

Cloud Manufacturing is developed in the cloud computing, which is based on the idea of "Made in service" recently. Cloud manufacturing mode connect all sorts of manufacturing resources and capability together and form standard manufacturing services which customers can obtain according to their demand at any time. Logistics mode should coincide with manufacturing mode for the certain correlation between logistics and manufacturing process,so the production and development of cloud manufacturing mode had the logistics mode reformed. In this paper we present a cloud manufacturing service composition method considering execution reliability based on ant algorithm, to optimize the use of composite service execution path to save the costs.

Cloud manufacturing is a new kind of advanced service-oriented network manufacturing paradigm. There are two kinds of nodes in this network manufacturing environment: manufacturing service nodes (service providers) encapsulated by manufacturing resources and task nodes (service customers). One of the bases of building up the collaborative relationships between customers and providers in cloud manufacturing environment is their reciprocal trust. However, vicious, mendacious, and inveracious information makes it quite difficult for customers to find reliable and high-quality providers to form virtual manufacturing systems for efficiently responding to market demands in cloud manufacturing environment, viz. service consumers often have insufficient information on service providers. The trustworthy network manufacturing environment is a prerequisite to implementation of cloud manufacturing. In this paper the notion of human trust is extended to the cloud manufacturing. A computational trust model which combines the direct computational reliability and the computational reputation is presented, and the simulating result confirms it valid.

Cloud manufacturing is a new service-oriented networked manufacturing mode based on the concept of “Manufacture as a Service” and achieves the sharing of manufacturing resources and manufacturing capacity. Multi-tenancy technology can improve utilization efficiency of manufacturing resources and ensure information security among tenants, enabling users to share the cloud manufacturing resources better. To execute this new mode, isolation access and on-demand services are indispensable. However, the traditional access control model cannot satisfy the demands of multi-tenant environment on cloud manufacturing platform. To solve the demands in such an environment, a model named Multi-Tenant Access Control Model for Cloud Manufacturing (CM-MTAC) is proposed. Based on cloud manufacturing architecture, we build a hierarchical cloud manufacturing access control architecture combining multi-tenancy. Considering the demands under this condition, the elements of cloud manufacturing access control model and the relationships between them are redefined by extending the ABAC model. Then multi-tenancy authorization framework is proposed and XACML language is used to describe the policy to provide our model with on-demand service, isolation access and inter-tenant collaboration. Finally, we develop this model into the cloud manufacturing monitoring platform. Results show that our model, compared with traditional models, has a better performance of on-demand service, isolation access and inter-tenant cooperation under the environment of cloud manufacturing.

Abstract Machine tools (MTs) are the core manufacturing resources for discrete manufacturing enterprises. In the cloud manufacturing environment, MTs are massive, heterogeneous, widely dispersed and highly autonomous, which makes it difficult for cloud manufacturing mode to be deeply applied to support the networked collaboration operation among manufacturing enterprises. Realizing universal access and cloud application of various MTs is an essential prerequisite to solve the above problem. In this paper, an OSGi-based adaptation access method of MTs is proposed. First, the MTs information description model in the cloud manufacturing environment is built. Then, an OSGi-based adaptation access framework of MTs is constructed, and key enabling technologies, including machine tool information acquisition and processing, Bundle and Subsystem construction, are studied. Finally, an application case is conducted to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.
