General architecture for data analysis in industry 4.0 using SysML and model based system engineering

Abstract

The industrial manufacturing sector has substantially evolved over the past decade, with the collect and analyze of sensors and apparatus data. The manufacturing processes "digitalization" has resulted in huge data management concerns, as manufacturing companies need to aggregate value for productivity improvement. The Industry 4.0 concept involves many technologies in order to challenge this issue. The paper presents an architecture framework to allow data analysis in different factories in the Industry 4.0 context. A MBSE approach is proposed and the use of SysML is assessed in that context.
