INTEGRATIVE DATA PROCESSING FOR CONNECTED CYBER-PHYSICAL OFF-SITE AND ON-SITE CONSTRUCTION

A major challenge to the aspired co-design approach is centralised data management. Although this challenge has been tackled from different perspectives in the past, utilising data models and formats from both building and mechanical engineering, it has not yet been resolved. The models represent the flow along the process chain. However, a backflow of information is outside the scope of most approaches.

This research project aims to address this shortcoming by creating a central data management platform with a standardised syntax and semantics that is shared across the entire process chain and supports interoperability between all stages, demonstrated by a co-design approach for an adaptive production system.

To identify the relevant data sources and formats, data acquisition is part of the requirements definition. Based on the results of this acquisition, we define the software architecture of the overall data management framework, along with its internal data model. We also incorporate semantics into the framework and devise appropriate interfaces for the relevant data formats. The data mapped into the central data management platform serves as the basis for algorithms that analyse the deviation of a monitored state from the anticipated state. This allows the implementation of a feedback loop to develop an adaptive production system.
