Objective(s) of the Activity: In this activity it is intended to develop a cyber physical system, by establishing a control network of sensors over a selected Manufacturing Assembly Integration or Testing process. Performance monitoring/control/scheduling functions, based on Internet of Things and/or Machine Learning and/or Artificial Intelligence are envisioned. This activity intends to combine the innovative methodologies of in-line, in-situ process monitoring and embedded sensors for Advanced Manufacturing Processes, with cyber systems that record and analyze data obtained from sensing networks In the end of the activity, the benefits, in particular focusing on Telecommunication Satellites, shall be assessed. The TRL shall be raised to 3 as defined in [AD1].
