Its main advantage is it offers a digital point-to-point plugand-play interface for any type of device or application. This simplifies the communication between devices and increases productivity with its different features like self-parametrization and maintenance. However, its complete potential is not always used. The aim of this paper is to create an Arduino based framework for the development of generic IO-Link devices and increase its implementation for rapid prototyping. By generating the IO device description file (IODD) from a graphical user interface, and further customizable options for the device application, the end-user can intuitively develop generic IO-Link devices. The peculiarity of this framework relies on its simplicity and abstraction which allows to implement any sensor functionality and virtually connect any type of device to an IO-Link master. This work consists of the general overview of the framework, the technical background of its development and a proof of concept which demonstrates the workflow for its implementation.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{UlmerBraunChengetal.2020, author = {Ulmer, Jessica and Braun, Sebastian and Cheng, Chi-Tsun and Dowey, Steve and Wollert, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Simulation und Verifikation komplexer Handarbeitsprozesse durch die Kombination von Virtual Reality und Augmented Reality im Single-Piece-Workflow}, series = {Tagungsband: AALE 2020}, booktitle = {Tagungsband: AALE 2020}, isbn = {978-3-8007-5180-8}, pages = {4 Seiten}, year = {2020}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{UlmerWollertChengetal.2020, author = {Ulmer, Jessica and Wollert, J{\"o}rg and Cheng, C. and Dowey, S.}, title = {Enterprise Gamification f{\"u}r produzierende mittelst{\"a}ndische Unternehmen}, series = {Automation 2020 : Shaping Automation for our Future}, booktitle = {Automation 2020 : Shaping Automation for our Future}, publisher = {VDI-Verlag}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, isbn = {978-3-18-092375-8}, doi = {10.51202/9783181023754-157}, pages = {157 -- 165}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Die fortschreitende Digitalisierung und Globalisierung fordert von den Unternehmen eine erh{\"o}hte Flexibilit{\"a}t und Anpassungsf{\"a}higkeit.

Software agents are one of the key technologies towards self-optimizing factories and are currently used to address the needs of cyber-physical production systems (CPPS). However their interplay in industrial settings needs to be understood better.This paper focusses on securing a cloud infrastructure for multi-agent systems for industrial sites. An industrial site contains multiple production processes that need to communicate with each other and each physical resource is abstracted with a software agent. This volatile architecture needs to be managed and protected from manipulation. The proposed infrastructure presents a security concept for TCP/IP communication between agents, machines, and external networks.

A novel concept and evaluation system combining Gamification and VR practice for flexible assembly tasks is proposed in this paper and compared to existing works. It is based on directed acyclic graphs and a leveling system.
