AutomationML Files

The AutomationML (AML) language is a solution for data exchange focusing on the domain of automation engineering. AutomationML uses an XML schema-based data format designed for the vendor independent exchange of plant engineering information. An AutomationML file is basically divided in four main parts: 

  1. Role Class Library, where the roles/types are defined; 
  2. Interface Class Library, where interfaces to link elements are defined; 
  3. System Unit Class Library where user-defined classes are set;
  4. Instance Hierarchy, where instances of System Unit Classes are created. 

See our deliverables D3.3 - Assessment of the Current Semantic Model Technologies and D3.7 - Common Semantic Model for more details on how AutomationML is used in the openMOS project.

Open Plug-and-Produce Manufacturing Service Bus

Overview:

Plug-and-produce is an information intensive process that requires from both the devices being plugged and the system a structured information exchange about the operational context and associated constraints. This service bus implementation will enable the seamless registration of the manufacturing components and support a cloud based modular deployment for the cyber representation of the same.

Features:

  • Device discovery and registration
  • OPC-UA and DDS (experimental) support
  • openMOS Semantic Model (AML) browsing
  • Skill-based execution handling
  • Cloud interaction via webservices

OPC-UA Server Information Model out of AML device description file:

The AMLParser class creates an OPC-UA server namespace based on AML file (current version is v13) this companion spec . For every skill defined in aml file we create a method node in the server to trigger the corresponding low level functions in underlying devices (see addSkill()). Currently, the mapping between opcua/aml server and corresponding low level functions are done via string metching in addSkill(), where based on the skill name the corresponding *SkillMethod is instantiated. org.fortiss.uaserver.device.lowlevel package contains classes for clients, that are created by adapter to communicate with the device's servers, subscription classes for each device and skills classes that map skill methods added to the opcua/aml server in AMLParser.addSkill(). ClientRunner should create a client for connecting to each of the underlying servers.

To start the server execute org.fortiss.uaserver.device.DeviceUaServer
