Preface
Modern technologies in production systems open new approaches and concepts of industrial pro-
duction. The digital Industry 4.0 upgrade provides new elements to control and manage produc-
tion in all industry sectors. This upgrade allows to improve product quality, and in general the
whole supply chain. The new digital technologies include hardware and software tools integrated
in infrastructure oriented on the gain of digital knowledge. The fast dynamicity of the markets, the
increase of the global competition between companies, and the unpredictable social and health
events, imposes the need to think of a new concept of a production system based on full automa-
tisms and self-adaptive processes, predicting production failures and product defects. In this con-
text, the Industry 4.0 facilities can be furthermore upscaled to an intelligent control and actuation
system of the production, characterizing the new Industry 5.0 scenario. The new facilities which
contribute to Industry 5.0 passage are mainly based on artificial intelligence (AI) implementations
in production and information systems, accomplishing predictive maintenance, failure prediction,
defect classification, efficient robotic control and actuation, design optimization, testing improve-
ments, and in general technological advances due to the possibility to quickly process data in each
production stage. This book analyzes innovative production approaches, and the integration
aspects of the AI in different industrial digital technologies, by enhancing specific functionalities.
In innovative production systems, AI is fully integrated in information systems and covers cyber-
security, quality processes, business intelligence and intelligent production management. The
innovative production is also related to new services associated with the introduction in the market
of new technologies such as for the telemedicine sector, and in general for industrial diagnostics,
where AI is also adopted for the improvement of inspection services. The main advantage of AI is
the self-learning of the algorithms able to learn automatically from the same production data of
companies. In an industrial upgrade, the implementation of sensor control and actuation based on
intelligent feedback systems is especially important. In this scenario, AI algorithms can accom-
plish robotic movement, by automatically optimizing the machine parameter setting, by means of
image and data processing. The correct use of AI is mainly based on the formulation of the algo-
rithm, and on the dataset adopted to learn the related model. For each application there is an
associated AI learning dataset which can be improved by big data systems. In particular, image
processing and image segmentation approaches can be improved by AI, enhancing hidden infor-
mation as defects, or adding new information about the performed production process. Another
tool supporting the assembly in supply chains and the coordination of activities is augmented real-
ity, which can be fully integrated in the information company infrastructure. An important step for
a new concept of production is the upgrade of the information technology (IT) infrastructure auto-
matically gaining the knowledge. Different IT architectures are proposed for different application

fields to enhance technologies more suitable for a self-adaptive production providing decision sup-
port systems. A particular interesting topic for the innovative IT is the Internet of Things. The
design and the development of an advanced IT infrastructure is the primary action to add for the
upgrade in Industry 5.0. The AI concept is extended to the logic condition implementation, acting
on signal processing, and on the use of simply electronic circuits representing these logics. The
discussed methodologies allow to comprehend how it is possible to move on a competitive produc-
tion based on the concept of “flexible” production and on new products based on advanced tech-
nologies on a micro- and nanoscale. In this scenario, companies working in manufacturing can
switch dynamically the production on the new products, thus converting the production in innova-
tive components, machines, materials, sensors, or devices. Following this orientation, this book
proposes important approaches to automatize efficiently the new production, by analyzing highly
advanced production tools based on nanotechnology. In this direction useful methodologies are
analyzed to implement the production of high technology devices, such as reverse engineering and
rapid prototyping by showing different examples useful to comprehend the methodologies to apply
for an innovative production based on scientific and industrial research development. Particular
attention is paid to the procedures to follow to produce a new device, to increase the company
capacity to accelerate the industrialization process starting a new innovative prototype fabrication,
and to basic approaches for the design modeling and testing. The optimization of the pre-
industrialization process to perform is accompanied by a quick check of the basic properties of the
new product to fabricate, and by the simultaneous support of the AI application improving analy-
sis. In order to start and to develop a new research activity, also concerning advanced technologies,
precise schemes must be followed. The discussed topics facilitate the understanding of the direc-
tions of the research for the production upscaling, just to apply the research activity. The last part
of the book provides different elements useful for writing an industrial research project, and for
the project management. This book deals with multidisciplinary topics including electronics,
mechatronics, mechanics, and informatics. All the analyzed topics are useful to know; the key ele-
ments are indispensable and useful to move the production from Industry 4.0 to Industry 5.0.
The chapter is focused on the technological and scientific state of the art about information
technology (IT) advances. Starting with Industry 4.0 enabling technologies, the scientific
improvements transforming the production lines and machines in intelligent systems following
the logic of Industry 5.0 are discussed. The new facilities and the new technologies are oriented
on the design of flexible and dynamical production processes, taking into account the market
demand which is increasingly unpredictable. Starting with the enabling technologies of Industry
4.0, the specifications of the hardware and software technologies for advances in Industry
5.0 manufacturing industries are introduced. Communication protocols able to improve sensing
and actuation in production processes are also discussed. Moreover, the analysis describes the
Internet of Things (IoT) protocols, IoT upgrade processes and technological improvements,
where of particular interest in monitoring industrial processing is infrared thermography (IRT)
for improving thermal measurements in the production environment. The chapter is also focused
on the description of different levels of the company information system, where sensors moni-
toring production constitute the field layer. The discussion is then oriented to provide an over-
view about sensors communicating with the local network by protocols, and achieving intelligent
and efficient sensing and actuation. All the analyzed topics are addressed for integration into an
upgraded information infrastructure implementing advanced tools. The analysis is then moved
to the production processes in industries by highlighting main interconnections and architec-
tures interfacing different tools. The study also enhances the scientific approaches consolidated
in Industry 4.0, by providing limits of the actual technologies and perspectives for future produc-
tion upscaling. Furthermore, the chapter discusses mainly intelligent information infrastructure
suitable for manufacturing industries. The chapter goal is to introduce technological elements
such as artificial intelligence (AI), augmented reality (AR) and big data systems, providing
knowledge gain (KG). Other important aspects are the horizontal and vertical integrations of the
technologies, considering bus‐based networks and automatisms in data processing which is sig-
nificant for the production advances. The chapter provides elements useful to comprehend how
technologies can be implemented in flexible information architectures for innovative industri-
alization processes.

2 1 State of the Art and Technology Innovation
Industry 4.0 introduced digital technologies improving industry productivity and different facili-
ties supporting processes. The main enabling technologies introduced by Industry 4.0 are [1–3]:
●● Three‐dimensional (3D) printers connected to production software.
●● AR oriented on production processes.
●● Simulation tools able to optimize production processes by simulating production of different
interconnected machines of different production lines.
●● Horizontal integration of supply chain elements, such as human resources, supplies, products,
transports, logistics, etc., and vertical integration of different production functions including
product design, production processes, production quality, and end to end combination of hori-
zontal and vertical functions.
●● Cloud computing, cloud data storage, and data management in open data and big data systems.
●● Cybersecurity improving security during network operations and in open systems, managing
network interconnections.
These main facilities enable smart manufacturing (SM) and computer integrated manufacturing
(CIM) industry processes in the fourth industrial revolution. In this scenario of enabling technolo-
gies, the information network architecture of companies plays a fundamental rule in production
upgrade and in production engineering. The information digitalization is the first step for Industry
4.0 implementation, where the production machines transfer data in the local area network (LAN)
and in general in the cloud environment. A particular function in Industry 4.0 improvement is the
production monitoring, automated by IoT sensors [4], reading in real time the operation condi-
tions of the whole production lines and allowing intelligent manufacturing. The control performed
by sensors is more efficient for in‐line monitoring procedures, where all sensors are synchronized
in order to provide the best production setting of the whole supply chain. All the phases of the sup-
ply chain are important to trace. The main parts to trace in the production processes are: (i) ware-
house, (ii) production lines, and (iii) logistics. In all these parts, robotics in general improves the
processes, by increasing production volumes and by assisting human work. This kind of “joint
collaboration” decreases the production errors and consequently the waste materials and related
costs. Other technologies such as AR [5, 6] are used for human resources training during produc-
tion processing, by increasing the worker skills and supporting workers to follow interactively and
continuously the production. Augmented reality aided manufacturing (ARAM) is another impor-
tant topic supporting production quality [5] by means of the programming of machines, robots and
production tools, by managing logistics, and by checking assembled products in the whole supply
chain. AR is adopted also in manufacturing as a dynamic authoring tool monitoring simultane-
ously the production activities of several workstations [6], for telerobotics controlling robots from
a distance, for waste reduction in production activities, for assembly support, for remote mainte-
nance, and for computer‐aided design (CAD) applications [7]. In the Industry 4.0 scenario, AI can
furthermore improve the industry production efficiency. AI algorithms are mainly indicated for
machine predictive maintenance [8, 9] and for assisted production, where machine working oper-
ations are properly and automatically set in order to avoid failures [10], by decreasing or stopping
machine in cases of alerting conditions. IoT sensors are very important for control and actuation
thus enabling totally automated processes. A broad use of IoT sensing is related to image vision [11,
12] including IRT [13], and temperature and humidity sensors. Moreover, accelerometers provide
supplementary information about anomalous vibrations indicating a possible system failure, and
1.1 State of the Art of Flexible Technologies in Industr 3
other sensors can be applied depending on the manufacturing process to be controlled. IoT signals
are processed by AI algorithms to predict the machine status in self learning modality: by analyz-
ing historical data, the AI algorithms create the training models to test for prediction. The AI
improvements represent mainly the passage from Industry 4.0 to Industry 5.0 facilities adapting
automatically the production with high level efficiency, and optimizing the production processes
which are previously simulated. The flexibility of the production is due to the correct choice of the
sensor network architecture, of protocols and the possibility to optimize the different layers of the
whole communication system of the company. A correct design of the information system allows
the disposal of a modular network open to vertical and horizontal integrations introducing innova-
tive tools and algorithms addressing the automatic production control. The layers where it is pos-
sible to operate for a flexible production are the input/output (I/O) layer, the user interface layer,
the gateway layer, the IoT middleware, the processing layer, and the application layer.
adopted for sensors, besides the bus layout is suitable for production line connections and for the
information system. By considering for example a photovoltaic camp with a high number of pan-
els, it is preferable to realize a ring type fiber optic network linking all electrical string panels. The
network also assumes a hybrid configuration, especially when a new network is added and linked
to an old one. Table 1.2 lists the main advantages and disadvantages of the different network
layouts.
The network typology must be compatible with the network information system of the industry.
In this way, the hybrid solutions potentially ensure the best network performances and flexibility.
Figure 1.2a shows an example of a hybrid extended star network, constructed by merging an
extended star with a mesh network, by showing an example of network reconfiguration in cases of
connection failures, where the automatic principle of node commutation is managed by an intel-
ligent algorithm detecting and predicting system failures (example of direct interaction between
processing layer and production machine layers). The cases of Figure 1.2b–e are related to a pos-
sible configuration of the data transmission of a part of the network of Figure 1.2a. This example
highlights the importance of adding nodes to avoid the transmission problem. The solution to add
nodes to the local network must be “weighted” with the decrease of performance due to the
increased complexity of the new hybrid network. The prediction of possible failures of nodes,
allows to change anticipatedly a linking configuration, thus avoiding data interruptions, and pre-
serving production control. In the prediction calculation, sensors play an important role because
they detect operation conditions of production lines, status machines and product tracking. In
Table 1.3 and Table 1.4 are listed the main specifications of traceability sensors able to detect the
product in each production stage, and the main characteristics of transmission protocols,

respectively. Solutions for the actuation are the plug and play (P&P) solutions and programmable
logic controller (PLC) hardware interfaces. For P&P systems the hardware and software compo-
nents are downloaded and installed at or before run‐time. The supervisory control and data acqui-
sition (SCADA) [30] systems are able to read production data and transmit the setpoints to the
PLCs. SCADA systems typically are implemented to control system architectures by graphical user
interfaces (GUIs), and behaving as a supervisor of peripheral devices such as PLC, and propor-
tional integral derivative (PID) controllers interfacing process plant and production machinery.
Typically, SCADA adopts visualization tools and synoptic graphics for real‐time data display.

6 1 State of the Art and Technology Innovation
The information levels of a dynamic information system, allowing the upgrade from Industry 4.0
to Industry 5.0 production, is interconnected as in Figure 1.3, where the following six main layers
are distinguished:
●● Sensor and actuator layer.
●● Agent, firmware and user interface layer.
●● Gateway layer.
●● IoT middleware.
●● Processing layer.
●● Application layer.
Flexible technologies must act in these layers, and are fundamental to automatize all the produc-
tion processes for:
●● In‐line/off‐line production monitoring.
●● The elimination of possible failure conditions.
●● The decrease of production defects.
●● The optimization of human resources and of their work.
●● Business intelligence (BI) and strategic marketing.
●● The optimization of the warehouse management.
●● A dynamic production following the real‐time customer requests.
The main flexible technologies are integrated in robotic systems. Robots process information
acquired by sensors placed inside and outside the production machines, and generating differ-
ent outputs suitable for decision making, for the processing coordination, and for the system
control.
The flexibility of the information system is mainly in the interconnectivity of all the layers shown
in Figure 1.3, representing a standard architecture upgraded by AI and big data system working in
the processing layer. Big data systems are characterized by the following features:
●● Volume (dataset volumes larger than terabytes [1012 byte] and petabytes [1015 byte]).
●● Velocity (velocity refers to the data generation speed).
●● Variety (variety of sources with structured, semi structured and unstructured data).
●● Veracity (quality of the data that is being analyzed, the non‐valuable data are classified as nose
or wrong data).
Big data uses the not only SQL (NoSQL) technology. The NoSQL databases (DBs) do not use the
relational model, are performed efficiently on clusters, and can be open source.
A primary important aspect concerning the production optimization is the production tracea-
bility, performed by sensors. Digital traceability is fundamental in Industry 4.0 scenarios.
Automatic detection by gates installed on the production line at each production stage is able to
control quality processes and production in general. Table 1.3 lists the main sensors used for prod-
uct traceability.
Radio frequency identification (RFID) systems are constituted by a reader and by a TAG or tran-
sponder, enabling the electronic identification of the traced product. The active version is equipped
with a lithium (Li) battery or is powered by an external source. The passive RFID is not equipped
with a battery and is cheaper offering an infinite lifetime. Besides, the active TAGs are more useful
when writing operations. Sensors displaced to control production transmit data using specific pro-
tocols. Table 1.4 lists some specifications of transmission protocols.

I know the things which have been, those which are, and
those which are to be; but me nobody knows. VII, 26.
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will
give you rest. Matt., 11, 28.
But that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority on
earth to forgive sins,—Mark, 2, 10.
If any man would come after me, let him deny himself, and take
up his cross, and follow me. Mark, 8, 34.
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will
give you rest. Matt., 11, 28.
In him seek shelter with all thy might: by his grace thou shalt
attain supreme peace, the eternal dwelling-place. XVIII, 62.
If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how
much more shall they call them of his household? Matt., 10, 25.
It would lead us far afield to set forth in detail all the striking things
that Jesus has to say about His own person and mission, but it may
be well to quote a few passages exhibiting lines of character and
thought not exemplified above:—
(a) His meekness and lowliness.
“The foxes have holes, and the birds of heaven have nests; but
the Son of Man hath not where to lay His head.” Luke, 9, 58.
“And He began to teach them, that the Son of Man must suffer
many things, and be rejected by the elders, and the chief priests,
and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.”
Mark, 8, 31.
“Every one who shall confess Me before men, him shall the Son
of Man also confess before the angels of God: but he that
denieth Me in the presence of men shall be denied in the
presence of the angels of God.” Luke, 12, 8-9.
“He that loveth father or mother more than Me is not worthy of
Me; and he that loveth son or daughter more than Me is not
worthy of Me.” Matt., 10, 37-38.
“Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy
by Thy name, and by Thy name cast out devils, and by Thy
name do many mighty works? And then will I profess unto them,
I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity.” Matt., 7,
22-23.
