Arrowhead Framework (AHF) is being developed to enable large-scale IoT based automation by providing an interoperability layer for local clouds. This framework aims to create an abstract model for distributed, heterogeneous, and non-linear systems. Managing the variability in such environments plays a key role in handling complex automation tasks such as in smart production systems. However, there is no standard solution available for handling the variability and configuration specifications in such environments. In this paper, we analyze the existing solutions for configuration management in industrial automation frameworks and provide leverage points for a standardization framework for handling configurations of automated production systems based on the concept of industrial internet of things.

概念化复杂自动化系统的配置服务

Arrowhead Framework (AHF) 正在开发中，通过为本地云提供互操作性层来实现基于物联网的大规模自动化。该框架旨在为分布式、异构和非线性系统创建一个抽象模型。管理此类环境中的可变性在处理复杂的自动化任务（例如智能生产系统）中起着关键作用。但是，没有可用的标准解决方案来处理此类环境中的可变性和配置规范。在本文中，我们分析了工业自动化框架中配置管理的现有解决方案，并为基于工业物联网概念处理自动化生产系统配置的标准化框架提供了杠杆点。
