This paper addresses the engineering of the ethical behaviors of autonomous industrial cyber-physical human systems in the context of Industry 4.0. An ethical controller is proposed to be embedded into these autonomous systems, to enable their successful integration in the society and its norms. This proposed controller that integrates machine ethics is realized through three main strategies that utilize two ethical paradigms, namely deontology, and consequentialism. These strategies are triggered according to the type of event sensed and the state of the autonomous industrial cyber-physical human systems, their combination being potentially unknown or posing ethical dilemmas. Two case studies are investigated, that deal with a fire emergency, and two different contexts i.e. one with an autonomous train, and one with an autonomous industrial plant, are discussed to illustrate the controller utilization. The case studies demonstrate the potential benefits and exemplify the need to integrate ethical behaviors in autonomous industrial cyber-physical human systems already at the design phase. The proposed approach, use cases, and discussions make evident the need to address ethical aspects in new efforts to engineer industrial systems in the context of Industry 4.0.

自主工业网络物理人系统中的工程伦理行为

本文讨论了在工业4.0上下文中自主工业网络物理人系统的道德行为的工程设计。建议将道德控制器嵌入到这些自治系统中,以使其能够成功融入社会及其规范中。提出的集成了机器道德的控制器是通过三种主要策略实现的,这些策略利用了两种道德范式,即道义论和后果论。这些策略是根据感知到的事件的类型和自主的工业网络物理人类系统的状态触发的,它们的组合可能是未知的,也可能构成道德困境。调查了两个案例研究,分别处理火灾紧急情况,以及两个不同的情况,即一个具有自动火车的环境,一个具有自动工厂的环境,讨论以说明控制器的利用率。案例研究表明了潜在的好处,并说明了在设计阶段就已经将道德行为整合到自主的工业网络物理人系统中的需求。提议的方法,用例和讨论表明,在工业4.0的背景下对工业系统进行工程设计的新努力中,有必要解决道德方面的问题。
