EIM’S MESSAGE: Knowledge and Energy Needs for Cybersecurity and AI

Stevan STANKOVSKI

A stable power supply for data centres is essential for the functioning of a modern digital society. Data centres are the backbone of information technology, storing, processing and distributing vast amounts of data that are essential to the operation of industrial systems, financial systems, public institutions and many other sectors. Any power outage can have serious consequences, including data loss, service disruption and significant financial loss. Technologies such as cybersecurity and artificial intelligence not only place additional demands on energy, but also require new knowledge to ensure their proper functioning.

Intelligent Cyber-Physical Systems for Manufacturing

Goran D. PUTNIK, Luis FERREIRA, Vijaya Kumar MANUPATI, Pedro PINHEIRO, Leonilde VARELA, Catia ALVES

The paper referred shortly to applications of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) in manufacturing. The paper is structured in three parts: the first part provides a general review of AI/ML in manufacturing, the second part presents the Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) as one of the main constructs of manufacturing systems within Industry 4.0 characterized by the use of AI/ML, together with an example of AI/ML based CPS efficiency. The third part presents some possible future developments related to manufacturing, especially in the context of prevised, by many authors, future AGI and ASI (Artificial General Intelligence, and Artificial Super Intelligence).

Industry 5.0 and Cybersecurity: A Study of Emerging Challenges

Gordana OSTOJIĆ, Stevan STANKOVSKI

Industry 5.0 focuses on creating a more human-centric approach by emphasizing the collaboration between humans and machines, rather than replacing human labor entirely. On the other hand, there is a cybersecurity concern that has grown into a fundamental aspect of strategic decision-making, especially for industries transitioning to Industry 5.0. In the paper key features of Industry 5.0. are represented, cybersecurity threats and key strategies to mitigate the emerging cybersecurity risks. Also, government policies, standards, and regulations are presented since they play a vital role in standardizing cybersecurity practices.

Grinding processing modes significantly affect the productivity and costs of this type of machining, as well as the accuracy of dimensions, shape, and the mutual relationship of the workpiece surfaces. They also influence the surface roughness of the processed areas. Similarly, processing modes impact the cutting temperatures, which cause specific deformations in the surface layer of the workpiece, such as material peeling. The dynamic behavior of technological systems for grinding, significantly influenced by processing modes, affects the overall accuracy and quality of this type of machining. Within the context of digitalization in production preparation and management, recommended processing modes can be used to develop appropriate databases and knowledge bases for the automated selection of grinding modes, which are utilized in programming and controlling the grinding process on modern technological systems. This paper presents an expert system for the automated selection of grinding processing modes.
