A gateway framework for System of Systems
During the European project Local4Global a control and optimization algorithm aimed to systems of systems was designed. Along with the algorithm, a gateway like software was developed in order to host it. This highly adaptable and extensible framework enables access and control to different device and entities that compose the system it is deployed on. Use of standards and predefined interfaces ensure the interoperability with external entities, physical devices and even other gateway instances. This paper explains how this generic software can be used to build custom made controllers, designed to be easy to configure, adaptable and scalable.
