ICONICS, a Microsoft® Gold Application Development Partner, 2014 Microsoft Public Sector CityNext Partner of the Year award winner and provider of Web-enabled, OPC-based, HMI/SCADA Visualization and Manufacturing Intelligence software for Microsoft Windows® operating systems, announces that they have successfully reached the one year mark (and first milestone) of the European ARTEMIS eScop project. During this implementation, ICONICS has deployed its GENESIS64™ HMI/SCADA software and MobileHMI™, ICONICS’ mobile application that brings the power of GENESIS64 to any smart device on Any Glass, Anytime™.
The eScop acronym stands for “Embedded systems for Service-based Control of Open manufacturing and Process automation”. It is a project aimed at overcoming current drawbacks for the shop floor control level, including MES and deterministic/real-time control, with the goal of implementing an innovative approach based on the combination of embedded systems, ontology-based knowledge management and service-oriented architecture.
With ICONICS solutions, eScop has reached their goals for the first level of project implementation and achieved project step one completion. The project has been ranked number one in the ARTEMIS Joint Undertaking (JU) call of 2012 and continues to reach target installation dates with successful integration. Co-funded by ARTEMIS JU and Member States, eScop consists of ten partners from the Czech Republic, Finland, Italy and Poland and is coordinated by FAST Lab at Tampere University of Technology in Finland.
The project was launched in March 2013 and, by January 2014, the first results were successfully provided and lead to the delivery of requirements and specifications for both technology and concepts constituting the basis for the design and implementation of the overall eScop architecture.
“ICONICS is excited to be working with the ARTEMIS organization on the eScop project,” said Russ Agrusa, ICONICS President and CEO. “We look forward to advancing manufacturing principles through the work jointly performed on this project.”
