An architecture based on IoT and CPS to organize and locate services

The fourth Industrial Revolution, also called Industry 4.0 (I4.0), has been increasing the expectation around productive systems. It is a new concept that has been changing the view and the value chain of enterprises. The I4.0 comprise the smart factory, bringing the emerging concepts of Internet of Things (IoT) and cyber-physical system (CPS) into manufacturing processes in a way to enable the design and creation of smart products, procedures and processes. Although, this scenario needs more investigation by the research and development fields, especially for architectures to guide the I4.0 implementation, mainly because it is in an initial stage and requires a comprehensive understanding to become a consolidated environment. The overall aim of this research is the presentation of an architecture based on IoT and CPS focused on I4.0. The proposal is centered on a hierarchical organization of services to contribute to the communication between machines and products so that products can be automatically guided in the manufacturing processes.
