The proposed article presents the research of decision-making processes for control system of transport robot, acting inside warehouse. The analysis shows the growing importance of warehouse systems for flexible integrated system. Such warehouse operations, like loading/uploading pallets and sending goods to distribution center can be fully automated by applying robots and some examples are known. Simultaneously, the wide introduction of transport robots with extended possibilities is still limited. Application of intelligent robot can significantly improve properties of warehouse systems, making them closer to Industry 4.0 standards. The functioning of a transport robot can be described as a Travelling Salesmen Problem with numerous solutions that must be effectively limited. Genetic algorithms are proposed as a basis for path generation. The algorithms and software are implemented to model warehouse transfer robots using an Arduino-robot. The results of testing show the effectiveness of the developed algorithms, software and hardware system.

Abstract The article is a review of completed research on developed and implemented innovative and technologically advanced technical systems. According to the Industry 4.0 concept they can have a significant impact on the efficiency of production processes and product development. In this perspective, the key aspect seems to be maintenance management of technical systems, realized both in the operate phase as well as during service and repair works. There were discussed research results of authors and developed application solutions supporting decision-making processes, in terms of three main periods of realization of exploitation processes: short, medium and long-term.

Abstract Businesses establish supply chains in order to continue their activities. Choosing the suppliers to take part in these supply chains poses many challenges in rapidly changing conditions. Environmental concerns in the public, competitive market structures, and developing technological opportunities affect the decision-making processes. Different criteria are taken into consideration instead of traditional criteria such as cost and service. In this study, green, agile, and Industry 4.0 dimensions and the criteria under these dimensions are defined. According to these, the problem of selecting the supplier that responds to the expectations of the markets and enables them to increase their competitiveness was discussed. Fuzzy SWARA and fuzzy BMW methods were applied in an integrated way to solve the supplier selection problem under these three dimensions. A real case study was also presented. In the study, the results obtained by creating different scenarios were compared and sensitivity analysis was made. The results obtained show that the hybrid method developed in this study is effective in supplier selection problems. As a result of the study, the most important evaluation dimension is "agile" and the most important criterion is "delivery speed".

This article discusses the process of automating the assessment of the effectiveness of software and hardware information protection by creating an automated system. The main functions of the proposed system are: conducting an audit of information security, forming a model of information security threats, forming recommendations for creating a software and hardware system for protecting information, and creating organizational-technical documentation. The developed automated system for evaluating the effectiveness of software and hardware protection of information allows in an automated way to build a model of information security threats, to form organizational and technical documentation governing the protection of confidential information, and also to make recommendations for improving the software and hardware system for protecting information. The use of this system will significantly reduce the time and material costs of auditing information security and developing additional measures to protect information.

In recent years, indoor position has been an important role in many applications, such as production management, store management and shelves in supermarket or library. Much time and energy are exhausted because one object cannot be quickly and accurately located. Traditional indoor position systems have some problems, such as complicated software and hardware system, inaccurate position and high time complexity. In this paper, the authors propose an RFID-based collaborative information system, Tagrom, for indoor localization using COTS RFID readers and tags. Unlike former methods, Tagrom works with reference tags and phase of Passive UHF-RFID tags, which improves traditional distribution of reference tags and utilize RF phase replace of traditional RSSI or multipath profile to determine the position of target RFID tags.

Level Analysis

The results of the level analysis of intellectuality and efficiency of up-to-date automated process control systems (APCS) based on software and hardware systems (SHS) are presented. It was demonstrated that, despite the widespread implementation of modern software and hardware systems during the construction of new APCS and upgrading the existing ones for thermal power plants (TPP), improvement of the process control quality, optimization of their modes and parameters take place generally at the equipment and power unit level and to a far lesser extent – at the power plant level and as a result – insufficient level of automation and low technical and economic efficiency. Another conclusion from the performed analysis – when implementing control algorithms in the APCS based on the up-to-date SHS, their wide data and software capabilities are not fully used. The main ways of further APCS improvement for the purpose of further increasing of their efficiency and the level of intelligence of SHS based APCS of power plants are presented. The possibility of their implementation is considered with application of the basic principles laid in the concept Industry 4.0. The possible economic effect from the implementation of the proposed solutions for increasing the intelligence and efficiency of the SHS based APCS was assessed. A brief description of the configuration of the proposed SHS based control system is given.

Final System

Software and hardware elements in software-driven complex systems are often designed independent from one another, and merged later. The problem with this design approach is that the requirements that involve hardware and software dependencies are not taken into consideration effectively, potentially causing the system to fail or be in an undesirable state. This research argues that, by considering software and hardware requirements together from the earliest design stages, a more reliable system will be designed by knowing the possible failure situations that may occur. In order to increase the reliability of the final system, this paper introduces a methodology to follow the software-hardware system as it completes a command and identifies the failure situations that may occur and the requirements needed to ensure successful completion of the command. The overall goal is to provide designers with an integrated design methodology to capture safety, reliability, and mission success related requirements in software-driven complex hardware systems. The benefits of the methodology are illustrated and the steps demonstrated using NASA’s K10 Rover as an example. The methodology is applied to the command of Move Rover, with the software and hardware interactions that may cause failures clearly identified in the model. Specifically, the hardware and software states that would allow for correct operation of the command are identified and clearly displayed on the model. The visual model and requirements that are developed can be used by the designers of the software to ensure mission success.
