Abstract:
Networks are a core element of many industrial and automation systems at present. Often these networks transport time- and safety-critical messages that control physical processes. Thus, timely and guaranteed delivery is an essential property of networks for such critical systems. Over the past decade, a variety of network solutions have evolved to satisfy said properties. However, these solutions are largely incompatible with each other and many system architects are forced to deploy different solutions in parallel due to their different capabilities. IEEE 802.1 Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) is a standardization group that enhances IEEE networking standards, most prominently Ethernet-based networks, with said properties and has the unique potential to evolve as a cross-industry mainstream networking technology. In this survey paper, we give an overview of TSN in industrial communication and automation systems and discuss specific TSN standards and projects in detail as well as their applicability to various industries.

He is currently a Corporate Scientist with TTTech Computertechnik AG, Vienna, and the Leader of the TTTech Labs, Vienna. His research is focused on dependable cyber-physical systems (CPS) and he significantly contributed to the domains of automotive, space, aerospace, as well as new energy and industrial automation. He designs algorithms and protocols with real-time, dependability, and security requirements. In particular, he follows a model-driven design approach in which he applies formal methods, such as model-checking, SMT-solving, and theorem proving to obtain formal correctness proofs of the solutions developed. While the initial targets of his research have been rather traditional dependable CPS, such as automobiles and airplanes, more recently he also addresses research problems in the area of Internet of Things (IoT), like the Industrial IoT and Industrie 4.0, as well as autonomous vehicles. He has been a Voting Member in the IEEE 802.1 Working Group from 2013 to 2016.
