Efficiency of the Control System Management based on the Unified Structured-ID Consists of Facility Category IDs and Service IDs

Abstract

It is said to be coming the era of "Internet of things" (IoT). In this field, various things connect to the network. In addition, the using of IoT is rapidly becoming the most popular concepts in the industry of Factory Automation and Control System Management. IoT concept makes a new opportunity on analyzing and intelligent component packages. However, the IoT concept caused the problem of the management for consistent identifiers. To solve this problem, we propose two techniques. The first technique is "Structured ID" that is able to define complicated structure of control systems using IDs on tree structure. The second technique is "Relational link" that is able to describe meaning for subset of structured IDs. Our proposal techniques reduced the development cost of control system manager to 1/3. Additionally, we are providing two products using these techniques.
