After decades of development, industry has evolved from automation to networking, informatization, and intelligence. Under the new system architecture of industrial cloud platform + industrial edge computing, industrial software needs to change. Under the high integration of control, computing, and communication, the new generation of industrial control software must have brand-new features such as high reusability, portability, interoperability, and reconfigurability. In the context of open automation, a system-level modeling language is needed to achieve efficient and reliable industrial edge application design and development.
The next-generation industrial Internet edge computing executable system-level modeling language based on IEC61499 is designed to discrete manufacturing, process control, motion control and other fields, integrating real-time control, data processing, communication configuration, machine vision, visualization, and many other requirements. Autonomous optimization management, flexibility and collaboration and other fields play an important role.
