Project description

Modern Industry 4.0 applications can be implemented with the Local-First Cooperation design principle. Proven methods of artificial intelligence (AI) can be used to solve problems. Distributed software agents communicate directly, coordinate themselves with others, and cooperate to solve local problems. Symbolic and sub-symbolic AI complement each other in problem solving. In this way, complex planning and optimization tasks can be implemented using resilient systems. These systems of the Industrial Internet of Things increasingly show self-x properties of organic computing.
