“…Using distributed architectures, specifically Multi-Agent System (MAS), is an interesting choice for modelling such problems [40]. MAS has been used for systems' modelling and simulation in many application domains (manufacturing, transport and logistics, supply chains, healthcare); it has also been used for control and modelling of offshore energy systems such as petroleum platform [49,9] modelling maintenance activities [53].Conventional methods of modelling and simulation are unable to ensure the required level of safety and performance of such systems [31].…”

Maintenance of offshore wind turbines is a complex and costly undertaking which acts as a barrier to the development of this source of energy. Factors such as the size of the turbines, the size of the wind farms, their distance from the coast, meteorological conditions, etc. make it difficult for the stakeholders to select the optimal maintenance strategy. With the objective of reducing costs and duration of such operations it is important that new maintenance techniques are investigated. In this paper we propose a hybrid model of maintenance that is based on multi-agent systems, which allows for the modelling of systems with dynamic interactions between multiple parts. A multi-criteria decision algorithm has been developed to allow analysis and selection of different maintenance strategies. A cost model that includes maintenance action cost, energy loss and installation of monitoring system cost has been presented. For the purposes of this research we have developed a simulator using NetLogo software and have provided experimental results. The results show that employing the proposed hybrid maintenance strategy could increase wind farm productivity and reduce maintenance cost.

“…Through the usage of formal (domain) models (e.g. ontologies for the industrial domain), automated reasoning systems might provide for automation support in areas, where nowadays human operators have to perform tasks manually [10]. Semantic descriptions and annotations not only allow for integration issues, but can also satisfy information needs covering different perspectives and different levels of abstraction.…”

Industrial manufacturing environments are typically supported by a backbone network of technical control-and business information systems. To carry out daily work routines like maintaining technical processes or managing business information like sales and orders, different user groups as, e.g., IT management or engineers, need different forms of integrated and aggregated views on the information stored in and flowing through these systems. In this paper, we are building on recent advances in the fields of Information Integration, Semantic Web and Linked Data and report on an approach called RDFreduce to meet aforementioned needs. RDFreduce allows for the creation of custom aggregated views on heterogeneous RDF datasets. The aggregates are equipped with provenance information, in order to be tracked back easily to the datasets they origin from. An industrial use case of RDFreduce stemming from steel production especially aiming at integrating and aggregating information flows is presented.
