The world is currently experiencing the fourth industrial revolution driven by the newest wave of digitisation in the manufacturing sector. The term Industry 4.0 (I4.0) represents at the same time: a paradigm shift in industrial production, a generic designation for sets of strategic initiatives to boost national industries, a technical term to relate to new emerging business assets, processes and services, and a brand to mark a very particular historical and social period. I4.0 is also referred to as Industrie 4.0 the New Industrial France, the Industrial Internet, the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the digital economy. These terms are used interchangeably in this text. The aim of this article is to discuss major developments in this space in relation to the integration of new developments of IoT and cyber physical systems in the digital economy, to better understand cyber risks and economic value and risk impact. The objective of the paper is to map the current evolution and its associated cyber risks for the digital economy sector and to discuss the future developments in the Industrial Internet of Things and Industry 4.0.

Step Model

There is an increased attention on propositions on models, infrastructures and frameworks of IoT in both business reports and technical papers. These reports and publications frequently represent a juxtaposition of other related systems and technologies (e.g. Industrial Internet of Things, Cyber Physical Systems, Industry 4.0 etc). At present, the literature is missing a design process for integrating these constantly evolving systems and technologies in a clear and understandable step by step model. This paper contributes with a new reference architecture model for the integration of these systems and technologies. The reference architecture model is based on grouping of future and present techniques and presenting the design process through a new hierarchical framework and a new cascading model. With the application of the grounded theory, the hierarchical framework and the cascading model detail a new process for creating a taxonomy of categories and grouping of concepts into integration design. The new design process is tested and versified with an empirical review of Industry 4.0 frameworks and results with a new 5 levels reference architecture step by step model for the integration of these related systems and technologies (Industrial Internet of Things, Cyber Physical Systems, and Industry 4.0). We review 118 academic and industry papers published between 2010 and 2019. Then, we report the results of a qualitative empirical study that correlates academic literature with 14 world leading Industry 4.0 frameworks and initiatives. We therefore propose an architectural model that offers a better understanding of the systems integration between the Industrial Internet of Things and Industry 4.0.

Industrial Internet of Things emerged as one of the major technologies enabling Industry 4.0 for industries. Multiple start-ups started working in the Industrial Internet of Things field to support this new industrial revolution. Distronix, one such Industrial Internet of Things start-up of India, started operations in 2014, when companies were not even aware of Industrial Internet of Things. Distronix started executing fixed-fee projects for implementation of Industrial Internet of Things. They also started manufacturing sensors to support large customers end-to-end in their Industry 4.0 journey. With the advent of public cloud, companies started demanding pay-per-use model for the solution Distronix provided. This posed a major challenge to Distronix as they had developed technology skills focusing fixed-fee customized project delivery for their clients. The situation demanded that they change their business model from individual project delivery to creation of product sand-box with pre-registered sensors and pre-defined visualization layer to support use cases for Industrial Internet of Things implementation in multiple industry sectors. It forced Rohit Sarkar, the 26 years old entrepreneur and owner of Distronix, to upgrade capabilities of his employees and transform the business model to support pay-per-use economy popularized by public cloud providers. The case discusses the challenges Rohit faced to revamp their business model in such an emerging technology field, like, to develop new skills of the technical people to support such novel initiative, reorienting sales people towards pay as use model, developing new concept of plug and play modular product, devising innovative pricing, better alliance strategy and finding out a super early adopter.

Abstract This article conducts a literature review of current and future challenges in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in cyber physical systems. The literature review is focused on identifying a conceptual framework for increasing resilience with AI through automation supporting both, a technical and human level. The methodology applied resembled a literature review and taxonomic analysis of complex internet of things (IoT) interconnected and coupled cyber physical systems. There is an increased attention on propositions on models, infrastructures and frameworks of IoT in both academic and technical papers. These reports and publications frequently represent a juxtaposition of other related systems and technologies (e.g. Industrial Internet of Things, Cyber Physical Systems, Industry 4.0 etc). We review academic and industry papers published between 2010 and 2020. The results determine a new hierarchical cascading conceptual framework for analysing the evolution of AI decision-making in cyber physical systems. We argue that such evolution is inevitable and autonomous because of the increased integration of connected devices (IoT) in cyber physical systems. To support this argument, taxonomic methodology is adapted and applied for transparency and justifications of concepts selection decisions through building summary maps that are applied for designing the hierarchical cascading conceptual framework.

The Internet Of Things

Cyber-physical systems are a means of effectively managing industrial applications of the Internet of things. Physical layer cyber-physical system implements the control devices of the industrial Internet of things and intelligent algorithms digital system level provide management and information security applications. Effective management and information security determine the success of the industrial Internet of things, so the research topic is relevant. The purpose of this article is to develop an optimal architecture of a cyber-physical system based on the principles of data processing at the place of their occurrence and the application of a control action at the place of the problem occurrence. The authors were faced with the task of exploring all the possibilities associated with the application of the proposed principles and developing an optimal application architecture for the industrial Internet of things. In the study proposed the concept of intelligent application of industrial Internet of things, which enables processing of continuously generated data in their source and provides application control action to the location of the problem. The proposed solution: a) increases the information security of the industrial application of the Internet of things (data is not transmitted over the network) and b) prevents an attack on the software of the Industrial application of the Internet of things. The solution can be used by developers of industrial IoT systems to effectively launch and implement projects

Intended Use

The fourth industrial revolution is being mainly driven by the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to support the development lifecycle of systems and products. Despite the well-known advantages for the industry, an increasingly pervasive industrial ecosystem could make such devices an attractive target for potential attackers. Recently, the Manufacturer Usage Description (MUD) standard enables manufacturers to specify the intended use of their devices, thereby restricting the attack surface of a certain system. In this direction, we propose a mechanism to manage securely the obtaining and enforcement of MUD policies through the use of a Software-Defined Network (SDN) architecture. We analyze the applicability and advantages of the use of MUD in industrial environments based on our proposed solution, and provide an exhaustive performance evaluation of the required processes.
