Wiring of Control Cabinets using a Distributed Control within a RobotBased Production Cell The assembly of control cabinets is highly affected by manual processes. Available solutions to automate the processes are complex, designed for one dedicated task, and expensive. Hence, they are uneconomically for most enterprises, because the typical company in the domain of control cabinet assembly is a small or medium sized enterprise with a high variance and low lot size production. Lowcost and flexible solutions that are suitable for these companies are not available. In order to design an appropriate solution, we have implemented a distributed control pattern. Within this paper, we present the resulting architecture as well as our implementation, and we discuss the advantages of our approach.

Timerelated Constraints in Administration Shell Design within Cyberphysical Production Systems The concept of Cyberphysical Production System has recently emerged. It emphasizes the expected and very close connection between industrial software systems and production assets on the next generation of intelligent industrial systems. The cyberphysical conceptualization hints at assets making their functions available through the so called administration shells. These are software structural design tenets that from, a functional perspective, will not only incorporate software interfacing aspects but also autonomous behaviour. There is an important body of practice in what is now perceived as cyberphysical integration. However, such work has taken a somehow informal approach to formalizing system engineering aspects and in particular to the impact of timerelated constraints affecting, the design locally and, the CPPS as a whole. This paper provides a model that relates physical, logical and computational aspects of cyberphysical design from structural and behavioural perspectives. Its goal is to provide a starting point for designing cyberphysical components while supporting informed decision making in respect to software design, integration and deployment practices that enable these components to operate in cyberphysical synchronization.
