Extension of the approach to the communications within the whole supply chain of the Microfactory

Coordinated by
I-FEVS

Once the secure communication with a vehicle has been demonstrated for remote FW update, it is straightforward to extend it to a general Service-Over-the-Air architecture and even further.
One of the key points in I-FEVS view is to propose the Microfactory concept to attract funding interest and provide the possibility to offer turn-key low investment facilities for
a flexible production of urban mobility solutions based on electric vehicles with the collaboration of Comau and Magnetto Automotive.
The Microfactory itself, together with its supply chain and the fleets of manufactured vehicles represents a Cyber-Physical Production System (CPPS) that can be seen as a network of linked nodes to which secure communication perfectly fits.
Thus, I-FEVS perspective is to extend the previous result on secure communication to cloud CPPSs, especially to the Microfactory one.

Security Testing Tool

GdpR-based cOmbinatOrial Testing (GROOT) is a general combinatorial strategy for testing systems managing GDPR’s concepts (e.g., Data Subject, Personal Data or Controller).

Domain Specific Language

The domain specific language enables specification of digital twin behaviour in a manner that can enable a predicted evaluation of its trustworthy behaviour in a simulated environment

Fail-operation clock synchronization methodology

Synchronization loss can occur due to many reasons, either because of a device or link failure or due to a targeted attack on the reference node, which supplies the corrected time to the network’s nodes.

Time sensitive network simulation

Simulate the real time communication for the distributed based on the Time sensitive network simulation. Additionally, simulate the fail-operation clock synchronization methodology. This simulation will validate the communication stack.
