Overview
The development of cloud computing, big data, Internet of Things, high-performance computing, and other emerging technologies is dramatically influencing industrial applications. Specifically, the current scenario is usually an ecosystem made up of intelligent embedded systems and intelligent products. It combines lots of intelligent and autonomous devices, which can perform predictive analysis and human-machine collaboration, to improve the level of personalization, efficiency and reliability. With the expansion of the industrial system, the complexity of the system has also increased considerably. Centralized data centers cannot analyze such massive amounts of data in a timely fashion. Thus, the concept of edge computing is presented to solve the issue.
With edge computing and analytics, the data is processed near the source, in sensors, controllers, machines, and gateways. In addition to the basic requirements for network latency, industrial applications also place requirements on self-monitoring, self-diagnosis, self-reconfiguration, and self-adaptation. This requires the edge not only to perform simple data processing, but also integrate intelligence. Therefore, the future trend is to integrate new intelligence algorithms into the edge, but research on this is still limited. The purpose of this special section is to present the advances in the field of edge-based industrial applications, to promote the development of the theory and practice in this area.
Topics
This special section has a wide scope that includes the development of edge intelligence, current applications, analysis of key technologies, and methods to solve problems for future development of edge intelligence.
Topics include:
- Multi-agent systems in industry
- Control with distributed edge intelligence
- Data interaction between edge and cloud platform
- Security and privacy in edge intelligence
- Human and machine intelligence fusion based on edge computing
- Intelligent decision-making systems for edge computing
- Edge intelligence for Industrial Internet of Things
- Data mining and knowledge discovery based on big data analysis from the aspect of edge intelligence
- Blockchain technology for edge intelligence
- Digital twins and digital shadows from the aspect of edge intelligence
- Mixed production planning and scheduling based on edge intelligence
