Decision Support Systems in the Context of Cyber-Physical Systems

Cyber-physical systems promise a complete networking of all actors and resources involved in production thus an improved availability information. In this context decision support enable appropriate processing presentation the captured data. particular, scheduling could benefit from this, since it is responsible for short-term planning control released orders. Since cyber-physical together are not yet widely used scheduling, aim research study to analyse adoption these technologies. order do so, we conducted qualitative interview with experts on scheduling. Thereby, identified eleven influencing factors 22 related challenges, which affect systems. We further discuss assess based study. The results help explain improve those can serve as starting point their development.
