ABSTRACT

One of the paradigms of Industry 4.0 is the quick answer of companies over changes on customer’s necessities. This can only be achieved when an efficient vertical and horizontal integration occurs across manufacturing systems. However, thousands of heterogeneous information must be exchanged across the process and semantic interoperability obstacles are identified for an effective communication. This research aims to identify the main bibliographical references that deal with horizontal and vertical integration to support a semantic interoperable manufacturing system. Also, it is proposed a preliminary approach to support a semantic interoperable horizontal and vertical integration across Smart Manufacturing Systems. A total of 732 articles were found and applying exclusion criteria the number went down to 31. A classification based on the subjects that each article contained was applied resulting in seven main works for the research themes. According to the analysis of the main works, the preliminary architecture was proposed using the semantic web approach and the formal rules. Although this research does not evaluate the performance of the solution proposed, it was evident that this field has new perspectives on future research opportunities to cope with the semantic information interoperability in multiple integration levels of manufacturing systems.

摘要

工业4.0的范例之一是公司对客户需求变化的快速解答。只有在整个制造系统之间进行有效的垂直和水平整合时，才能实现这一点。但是，必须在整个过程中交换成千上万的异构信息，并且要确定语义上的互操作性障碍，以进行有效的通信。这项研究旨在确定处理水平和垂直集成以支持语义可互操作的制造系统的主要参考书目。此外，提出了一种初步的方法来支持跨智能制造系统的语义可互操作的水平和垂直集成。总共找到732条文章，并且按照排除标准，该数字下降到31。根据每篇文章所包含的主题进行分类，得出了七个主要的研究主题作品。在对主要工作进行分析的基础上，提出了基于语义网的方法和形式化规则的初步构架。尽管此研究未评估所提出解决方案的性能，但很明显，该领域对未来的研究机会具有新的观点，以应对制造系统的多个集成级别中的语义信息互操作性。
