The COALA solution will support the workers when performing process and product quality inspections with quality predictions and prescriptions for mitigation measures. The Augmented Manufacturing Analytics feature is A set of DIA functions interfacing the prescriptive quality analytics service connected to shop floor data sources. It will enable non-data-scientist workers to utilize and customize data analytics during product quality tests.
COALA will contribute in the ongoing discussion about AI ethics and potential standards, monitor the standardization potential for worker education under consideration of AI competencies, and will use and contribute to IT standards. We will take into account available IT-related standards and use them when applicable. This includes normative standards as set by ISO and its national bodies, which are of high importance to industrial companies. We will assess standards proposed by major influential de-facto standardization bodies like W3C, OASIS, and OMG. Standardization topics concern:
- The technical system architecture level. Standardize communication protocols, data exchange formats, data exchange interfaces.
- The content level. Ontologies for the semantic data integration and the WHY engine.
- The process level. This includes innovation management system, terminology, terms and definitions, and tools and methods.
COALA's three use cases (textile, white goods, liquid production) will evaluate the COALA solution in their manufacturing processes with significant economic value.
