报告摘要：Pushed by the advancement of fog or edge computing and new generation wireless networks such as 5G and WiFi6, a new paradigm of automation system, the Cloud-Fog Automation is emerging. In the Cloud-Fog Automation, the higher-level automation applications such as ERP and MES will be deployed in public or private cloud infrastructure while the lower-level applications such as SCADA and PLC deployed in the fog infrastructure over deterministic wireless networks. Unprecedented machine intelligence and autonomy will be enabled by the powerful computing capacity and native support to artificial intelligence. Disruptive reduction of CAPEX as well as engineering barriers will be enabled by largely eliminating the purpose-specific hardware such as hardware PLC and expensive cabling. To realize this vision, major technical challenges in communication and computing need to be solved especially for latency, reliability, security, and functional safety. Given the limited time of this talk, I will address this topic mainly from the perspectives of functional safety.
