Abstract

During the Industry 4.0 era, Internet-of-Things (IoT) played the leading role in the first industrial revolution, comparable to steam energy. IoT offers the possibility to merge the connection between machine-to-machine (M2M) and Realtime manufacturing data collection. The implementation of IoT in the industry therefore improves dynamic optimization, control and decision-making powered by data. Domain suffered, however, due to interoperability problems. In the absence of communication standards, large numbers of IoT devices link to the Internet. The heterogeneity in IoT ranges from high to low (device connectivity, network connectivity, communication protocols) (services, applications, and platforms). In order to understand the interoperability problems and current solutions to help IoT’s smart manufacturing, the project examines the current state of the industrial IoT (IIoT) ecosystem. On the basis of a literary analysis, interoperability problems at IIoT were divided into four levels: technical, syntactic, semanticized and organization. With regard to each interoperability standard, existing interoperability solutions have been grouped and evaluated. In the sense of promoting industrial interoperability, nine reference architectures have been compared. The study identified the patterns and challenges of interoperability research.
