The AURORA project aims at facilitating high production efficiency in future smart factories by providing a novel dynamic control system platform that enables an automated production system to maintain its performance in the presence of increasingly high information volumes and processing demands caused by the increasing complexity of the system. The proposed solution is based on dynamic runtime optimization of the system model using advanced complexity reduction methods and a hierarchical multi-agent control system which utilizes the digital twin technology to facilitate efficient autonomous modelling and coordination of the system. The developed technology will be validated by comprehensive simulations and by experiments in a real factory environment.
