Real-time communication and control are essential parts of the Cyber Physical System (CPS) to optimize effective performance and reliability. To gain a sustainable competitive advantage with Automation 5.0, as needed in Work-of-the-Future, this article addresses the concept of real-time communication and control in the case of an agricultural work setting, along with a newly designed Cyber Collaborative Protocol, called CCP-RTC2. The developed protocol aims to minimize information delay and maximize JIN (Just In Need) information sharing, to enable collaborative decisions among system agents. Two experiments are conducted to compare the designed protocol’s performance in agricultural CPS against the current non-CPS practice. The results demonstrate that the CCP-RTC2 is superior compared with current practice in terms of information sharing in a normal operation scenario. When the system obtains an unplanned request, the CCP-RTC2 can integrate such a request to the original work plan while minimizing the system’s objective function (lower is better). Hence, the system has relatively smaller information delays, as well as better timely information shared with system agents that need it.

用于人-机-传感器工作中实时通信和控制的网络协作协议

实时通信和控制是网络物理系统 (CPS) 优化有效性能和可靠性的重要组成部分。为了根据未来工作的需要，通过自动化 5.0 获得可持续的竞争优势，本文讨论了农业工作环境中实时通信和控制的概念，以及新设计的网络协作协议，称为 CCP-RTC2。开发的协议旨在最小化信息延迟并最大化 JIN（Just In Need）信息共享，以实现系统代理之间的协作决策。进行了两个实验，将设计的协议在农业 CPS 中的性能与当前的非 CPS 实践进行比较。结果表明 CCP-RTC2 在正常操作场景下的信息共享方面优于当前实践。当系统得到一个计划外的请求时，CCP-RTC2可以将这样的请求整合到原来的工作计划中，同时最小化系统的目标函数（越低越好）。因此，系统具有相对较小的信息延迟，以及与需要它的系统代理共享的更及时的信息。
