An Overview on Designs and Applications of Context-Aware Automation Systems
Automation systems are increasingly being used in dynamic and various operating conditions. With higher flexibility demands, they need to promptly respond to surrounding dynamic changes by adapting their operation. Context information collected during runtime can be useful to enhance the system's adaptability. Context-aware systems represent a design paradigm for modeling and applying context in various applications such as decision-making. In order to address context for automation systems, a state of the art assessment of existing approaches is necessary. Thus, the objective of this work is to provide an overview on the design and applications of context and context models for automation systems. A systematic literature review has been conducted, the results of which are represented as a knowledge graph.
