CyberManufacturing System is an advanced vision for future manufacturing where physical components are fully integrated and seamlessly networked with computational processes, forming an on-demand, intelligent, and communicative manufacturing resource and capability repository with optimal and sustainable manufacturing solutions. The CyberManufacturing System utilizes recent developments in Internet of things, cloud computing, fog computing, service-oriented technologies, among others. Manufacturing resources and capabilities can be encapsulated, registered, and connected to each other directly or through the Internet, thus enabling intelligent behaviors of manufacturing components and systems such as self-awareness, self-prediction, self-optimization, and self-configuration. This research presents an introduction to the CyberManufacturing System, establishing the architecture and functions of the CyberManufacturing System, designing the pivotal control strategy, and investigating the performance analysis of the CyberManufacturing System using modeling and simulation techniques. In total, five component-level examples and one system-level case study have been developed and used for illustration and validation of the CyberManufacturing System operations. The results show that the CyberManufacturing System is superior to other types of manufacturing systems in terms of functionality and cooperative performance.

Sustainable manufacturing requires simultaneous consideration of economic, environmental, and social implications associated with the production and delivery of goods. Fundamentally, sustainable manufacturing relies on descriptive metrics, advanced decision-making, and public policy for implementation, evaluation, and feedback. In this paper, recent research into concepts, methods, and tools for sustainable manufacturing is explored. At the manufacturing process level, engineering research has addressed issues related to planning, development, analysis, and improvement of processes. At a manufacturing systems level, engineering research has addressed challenges relating to facility operation, production planning and scheduling, and supply chain design. Though economically vital, manufacturing processes and systems have retained the negative image of being inefficient, polluting, and dangerous. Industrial and academic researchers are re-imagining manufacturing as a source of innovation to meet society's future needs by undertaking strategic activities focused on sustainable processes and systems. Despite recent developments in decision making and process- and systems-level research, many challenges and opportunities remain. Several of these challenges relevant to manufacturing process and system research, development, implementation, and education are highlighted.

Due to rapid consumption of world’s fossil fuel resources and impracticality of large-scale application and production of renewable energy, the significance of energy efficiency improvement of current available energy modes has been widely realized by both industry and academia. A great deal of research has been implemented to identify, model, estimate, and optimize energy efficiency of single-machine manufacturing system [1–5], but very little work has been done towards achieving the optimal energy efficiency for a typical manufacturing system with multiple machines. In this paper, we analyze the opportunity of energy saving on the system level and propose a new approach to improve energy efficiency for sustainable production systems considering the fact that more and more modern machines have multiple power states. Numerical case based on simulation model of an automotive assembly line is used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Verification and validation (V&V) of systems, and system of systems, in an industrial context has never been as important as today. The recent developments in automated cyber-physical systems, digital twin environments, and Industry 4.0 applications require effective and comprehensive V&V mechanisms. Verification and Validation of Automated Systems' Safety and Security (VALU3S), a Horizon 2020 Electronic Components and Systems for European Leadership Joint Undertaking (ECSEL-JU) project started in May 2020, aims to create and evaluate a multi-domain V&V framework that facilitates evaluation of automated systems from component level to system level, with the aim of reducing the time and effort needed to evaluate these systems. VALU3S focuses on V&V for the requirements of safety, cybersecurity, and privacy (SCP). This paper mainly focuses on the elaboration of one of the 13 use cases of VALU3S to identify the SCP issues in an automated robot inspection cell that is being actively used for the quality control assessment of automotive body-in-white. The joint study here embarks on a collaborative approach that puts the V&V methods and workflows for the robotic arms safety trajectory planning and execution, fault injection techniques, cyber-physical security vulnerability assessment, anomaly detection, and SCP countermeasures required for remote control and inspection. The paper also presents cross-links with ECSEL-JU goals and the current advancements in the market and scientific and technological state-of-play.

There has been an increasing trend for manufacturers to shift toward sustainable manufacturing strategies in response to an ever-growing pressure from fluctuating energy price and environmental crisis. Reducing energy consumption is considered as an important step to achieve the sustainability of a production system. This paper proposes an event-based control methodology to improve the production energy efficiency through strategically switching appropriate stations to energy saving mode. Based on an event-based analysis of production dynamics, an analytical approach is developed to quantitatively predict the system level production loss resulted from an energy saving control event (ESCE). A genetic-based control algorithm is proposed to balance the trade-off between the gain from energy saving and the expense of throughput loss. The energy improvement analysis results in a fundamental understanding of production energy dynamics and a significant decrease of energy cost for a manufacturing facility. Numerical case studies are performed to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. It is found that the control method can effectively reduce energy cost, while only slightly impacting production.

Frequency synthesizer is a key building block of fully-integrated wireless communications systems. Design of a frequency synthesizer (FS) requires the understanding of not only the circuit-level but also of the transceiver system-level considerations. The FS design challenge involves strong trade-offs, and often conflicting requirements. In this tutorial, the general implementation issues and recent developments of frequency synthesizer design are discussed. Simplified design approach should provide readers with sufficient intuition for fast design and troubleshooting capability. Open problems in this FS field are briefly discussed.

AbstractDue to the stringent awareness toward the preservation and resuscitation of natural resources and the potential economic benefits, designing sustainable manufacturing enterprises has become a critical issue in recent years. This presents different challenges in coordinating the activities inside the manufacturing systems with the entire closed-loop supply chain. In this paper, a mixed-integer mathematical model for designing a hybrid-manufacturing-remanufacturing system in a closed-loop supply chain is presented. Noteworthy, the operational planning of a cellular hybrid manufacturing-remanufacturing system is coordinated with the tactical planning of a closed-loop supply chain. To improve the flexibility and reliability in the cellular hybrid manufacturing-remanufacturing system, alternative process routings and contingency process routings are considered. The mathematical model in this paper, to the best of our knowledge, is the first integrated model in the design of hybrid cellular manufacturing systems which considers main and contingency process routings as well as reliability of the manufacturing system.
