Optimization algorithms can calculate better plant configurations. Thesting these new configurations in a real plant can be very cost intensive as production may be compromised during configuration and testing. A virtual environment which is able to simulate new parameters and verify them is a big deal as the running production is not compromised during testing and evaluation of new parameters.
The main focus of IMPROVE are learned models. Manual modeling of system models is not suitable for the complex, fast chaning industrial plants we have today. Lots of expert knowlege is needed to manually create a model. Learned models can be created using only data and little to no expert knowledge is required depending on the technology.

A Simulation and Forecasting Toolkit analyses the production processes and required resources in an integrated way and extracts forecasts for possible failures. Also forecasting is provided in supply chain and logistics, especially in fill level monitoring of bins and boosts the waste management and recycling processes. Sustainable manufacturing will be assisted by a Decision Support System. The Marketplace will enable dynamic integration with actors in the supply chain.

Digital models enahnced with real world data acquired from sensor devices will be used as the basis of physical phenomena that affect the operational condition of the equipment, such as degradation. THis will result in the improvement of the accuracy of the predictive maintenance functionalities of the SERENA platfrom and tools.
FALCON aims to provide methodologies and approaches for representation of design knowledge on the one hand and additionally for forecasting and simulation mechanism. The representation of design knowledge will be based on existing standards and the developments dedicated to the Rule Interchange Format, which has been developed within the FP7 LinkedDesign project. Furthermore, FALCON supports the optimization of Forecasting and Simulation mechanism. By using real-life data gathered from Product Embedded Information Devices, sensors or from social media (blogs, twitter, facebook etc.) throughout the whole lifecycle optimized results are expected in order to find the best solutions for new generation product-services.
The FALCON Open Virtual Platform aims to support different domains dedicated to the whole lifecycle of products. In order to achieve this goal the Virtual Open Platform will include an ontology enabling different domains to exploit the FALCON VOP. Dedicated to the field of new product design the Rule Interchange Format will be further developed in order to represent design knowledge in a neutral format. This way also general valid knowledge (such as Moment of Inertia etc.) can be re-used in different contexts of product design.
