By P. Mahesh, A. Tiwari, C. Jin, P. R. Kumar, A. L. N. Reddy, S. T. S. Bukkapatanam, N. Gupta, and R. Karri

This article presents and discusses the cybersecurity risks in the emerging digital manufacturing (DM) context, assesses the impact on manufacturing, and identifies viable approaches to secure DM.

By C. Zhou, B. Hu, Y. Shi, Y.-C. Tian, X. Li, and Y. Zhao

This article deals with the cybersecurity issues posed by the Industry 4.0 era, with specific regard to industrial control systems (ICSs), and presents a unified architectural approach to proactively address these issues.

By B. Vogel-Heuser, E. Trunzer, D. Hujo, and M. Sollfrank

This article addresses the redeployment of intelligent algorithms and learning for evolving smart cyber–physical production systems (CPPSs) with a comprehensive domain-specific language (DSL), DSL4hDNCS.

By G. N. Schroeder, C. Steinmetz, R. N. Rodrigues, R. V. B. Henriques, A. Rettberg, and C. E. Pereira

This article focuses on the digital twin (DT), one of the key concepts of Industry 4.0, and proposes a methodology for DT design using modeldriven engineering (MDE) that strives toward being both flexible and generic.

By R. Harrison, D. A. Vera, and B. Ahmad

This article envisions a connective framework to support the engineering of cyber–physical production systems (CPPSs) in smart manufacturing through the use of a set of digital twins consistent with the real system throughout its lifecycle.

By K.-B. Gemlau, L. Köhler, and R. Ernst

This article revisits the programming paradigm that is currently used for lock-free multicore programming and explains its extension to the system level, exploring its application to two important developments in industrial design.
