TRANSACT Impact Webinar

Eclipse Foundation & EUCloudEdgeIoT.eu

Reference architecture and methodology for transforming  safety-critical cyber-physical systems from localised into distributed solutions.

The TRANSACT project has developed a universally applicable distributed architecture concept and framework that brings together cyber-physcial systems (CPS) end devices with edge computing servers and cloud computing facilities, hosting multiple mixed-criticality applications. Additionally, the project proposes a transition methodology for transforming standalone safety-critical CPS into distributed safety-critical CPS solutions. The architecture concept and the transition methodology ensure safety and security taking into account network reliability, latency and user access.

This presentation focuses on the TRANSACT reference architecture and its distributed multi-tier approach, which is based on a computing continuum that spans from the CPS device tier, through the edge tier, to the cloud tier. Outsourcing functionality to the edge and cloud tiers can lead to improved performance, reduced execution time, or enhanced precision in computations as long as the quality of service requirements are met and safety is not compromised. The description will be complemented with a medical use case showing how the TRANSACT approach and reference architecture can be applied in a hospital. Having a cloud-connection available during live treatment of patients would enable a surgeon to e.g. request the cloud to perform the latest 3D image processing analysis, to provide the best insight for the medical procedure at hand.

Talk 1: TRANSACT reference architecture: a universally applicable distributed 

The transition from an isolated end device to a distributed system is particularly challenging forsafety critical systems due to the high demands on the trustworthiness of such a distributed system. In the first part of this talk we focus on the TRANSACT Transition Methodology outlining the transformation of the monolithic cyber physical systems to the distributed solution spanning over business, architectural, and organizational areas, taking into account the critical cross-cutting aspects such as safety, performance, security, privacy, regulatory, and certification. The proper requirements handling is important step in the assessing the success of the transition, therefore, in the second part of the talk, we describe generically a stepwise process of defining requirements when transforming an initial CPS into a system with parts distributed over the edge-cloud continuum.

Talk 2:  Methodology for transforming a local safety-critical cyber-physical
