Abstract: A computer-implemented method for orchestrating execution of workloads on nodes includes determining a set of requirements for resources needed for execution of the workload; determining for each compute node an availability of the resources required; establishing multiple candidate configurations having an assignment of each compute workload to at least one pair of a compute node and a working class, wherein different working classes differ at least in the degree of retention of the compute workload in memory and/or in at least one cache of the compute node after execution; computing for each candidate configuration at least one figure of merit with respect to at least one given optimization goal; and determining a candidate configuration with the best figure of merit as the optimal configuration.

Abstract: There is provided an explainer system for explaining an alarm raised by a machine learned model of an industrial automation system. The explainer system is configured to: receive model output from the machine learned model trained to predict anomalous behaviour in the industrial automation system and to raise the alarm; process the model output using at least one prediction explanation technique to identify at least one influential feature which contributed to the model output; use the identified at least one influential feature to extract contextual information from at least one machine-readable information source pertaining to the industrial automation system; and prepare the extracted contextual information for display to an operator of the industrial automation system, to enable the operator to select an appropriate action to take in response to the alarm for ensuring proper functioning of the industrial automation system.

Abstract: An industrial field device replacement system includes: an input unit; and a processing unit. The input unit receives an identification of a specific device to be replaced, the specific device being in a network of a plurality of devices, and the input unit providing the identification of the specific device to the processing unit. Prior to replacement of the specific device, the processing unit determines one or more further devices of the plurality of devices that would be affected by replacement of the specific device, the determination including utilization of the identification of the specific device. Prior to replacement of the specific device, the processing unit changes a mode of operation of the one or more further devices from a normal mode into a safe mode such that the one or more further devices will not be affected when the specific device is not available.
