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: A method for providing an efficient communication in a hierarchical network of distributed devices includes collecting first data from a first client device sent by a sensor via a second communication interface; storing the first data in a data storage; determining metadata of the first data; receiving a requirement information of the first data; generating classification information of the first data according to the metadata and the requirement information; providing the classification information to a master device and/or to a second client device according to a rule; and updating the classification information when the first data is changed.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system for validating a component specification defining at least one component of an industrial automation system, wherein the component specification is arranged in an object-oriented data format, includes obtaining an invariant specification specifying one or more invariants that must be satisfied for the component specification to be deemed fit for use in conjunction with the industrial automation system; and validating the component specification using the invariants specified in the invariant specification.

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: A method for verifying the design of a function module in an industrial plant having control logic for a physical process; logic to accept commands from a superordinate management system; communication between logics and between the function module and the industrial plant; and input/output channels, the method comprising: obtaining a ruleset comprising at least requirements for I/O channels and their connections that are necessary conditions for the function module to perform its intended function in the industrial plant; checking whether the input/output channels of the function module and their connections meet the rules in the ruleset; and in response to determining that at least one rule in the ruleset is not met, determining that the design of the function module has an error, and preventing use of the function module in the modular industrial plant.

Abstract: A system and method for enabling an efficient data processing in a distributed network of devices includes collecting first data from at least one client device sent by at least one plant device via a first communication interface; storing the first data in a data storage; profiling the first data to obtain characteristic information of the collected first data; determining a data processing strategy upon a result of the characteristic information of the first data; processing the first data according to the data processing strategy and deciding which data of the first data need to be sent to the master device via a second communication interface.

Abstract: A method for system monitoring in a hierarchical network of distributed edge devices includes a master edge, first and second client edges connected via a first communication interface to the master edge, the method including receiving sensor data from a sensor device via a second communication interface, determining a first local model parameter representing a machine learning (ML) model of the at least first client edge based on the sensor data; storing the first local model parameter in a data storage of the at least first client edge; collecting the first local model parameter from the at least first client edge; and generating a global ML model based on the at least first local model parameter, wherein the global ML model is used for monitoring a system performance or a condition of the system.
