Extension of reconfigurability provisions in IEC 61499
2013 IEEE 18th Conference on Emerging Technologies & Factory Automation (ETFA), 2013This paper presents an investigation into the implementation of reconfigurable industrial applications using the IEC 61499 standard. An architecture and design methodology is proposed to allow for the addition of reconfigurable elements to existing IEC 61499 applications. The commercially available NxtForte IEC 61499 platform was chosen for experiments.

Benchmarking of IEC 61499 runtime environments
2007 IEEE Conference on Emerging Technologies & Factory Automation (EFTA 2007), 2007This paper presents a methodology for the characterization of an IEC 61499 runtime environment by use of a benchmarking procedure. Due to the usage of IEC 61499 for low-level control as well as the paradigm of application centered engineering1, it is necessary to describe the capability to execute IEC 61499 function block networks.

Event Storms in IEC 61499 Applications
2018 Conference on Design of Circuits and Integrated Systems (DCIS), 2018The event-based IEC 61499 standard was established to complement the cycle-based IEC 61131 standard for PLC applications. It focuses on the design of an application employing a function block based approach, whereas the implementation targeting either standalone or networked embedded systems is kept transparent.

Framework for management of replicated IEC 61499 applications
2008 IEEE International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation, 2008The IEC 61499 standard defines function blocks with which distributed control applications may be developed, and how these are interpreted and executed. With the distributed nature of the control application, many issues also need to be taken into account.

IEC 61499 and the Promise of Holonic Systems
2019This paper provides a review of the IEC 61499 standard for industrial automation from the perspective of holonic manufacturing systems. This standard played a central role since the beginnings of the Holonic Manufacturing Systems (HMS) movement, and by many, was considered the enabling approach to realize holonic systems.

Is IEC 61499 in harmony with IEC 61131-3?
IEEE Industrial Electronics Magazine, 2009This year marks the 16th anniversary of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 1131-3 (now IEC 61131-3), currently one of the most important standards in industrial automation. Four years before its release, it has been decided that it will define a further standard for programming industrial control systems, the IEC 61499 standard.

The Past, Present, and Future of IEC 61499
2007In 1991, Technical Committee 65 (TC65) of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) approved a New Work Item (NWI) for the development of an international standard for the use of software objects known as Function Blocks (FBs) in distributed Industrial-Process Measurement and Control Systems (dIPMCS).

A Schedulability Analysis of an IEC-61499 Control Application
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2005This paper deals with the temporal correctness of control applications designed using the component-based standard IEC 61499. In this standard, a function block is defined as an event trigger component containing its own data. To validate the temporal behavior of an application, we have to take into account its scheduling on the execution support.

Implementing IEC 61499 communication with the CIP protocol
2007 IEEE Conference on Emerging Technologies & Factory Automation (EFTA 2007), 2007IEC 61499 is introduced as a new standard for industrial process measurement and control system. Communication function blocks are however, only loosely defined as they are implementation dependant. This paper presents the definition of communication function blocks for the CIP protocol which is a well established standard in industry and describes a ...
