Industrial Internet of Things: A Swarm Coordination Framework for Human-in-the-Loop

The Internet of things (IoT) is embedded into the industrial scene and combined with various devices, facilities and materials to form Smart Objects (SOs). The SOs could be thought of as a heterogeneous swarm in a smart factory under Industrial IOT environment. The process of production is the coordinated operation of various production resources, but dynamic events often interfere with production activities. To solve this problem, an swarm collaboration architecture is proposed. Specifically, it considers the influence of human factors with Human-in-the-Loop on workshop intelligent equipment interaction, and the multi-level dynamic scheduling method of swarm collaboration under the framework is discussed.
