This volume gathers the peer-reviewed papers presented at the ninth edition of the International Workshop on Service-oriented, Holonic and Multi-Agent Manufacturing Systems for the Industry of the Future, SOHOMA 2019 organized on 3–4 October 2019 by Universitat Politècnica de València in collaboration with University Politehnica of Bucharest (the CIMR Research Centre in Computer Integrated Manufacturing and Robotics), Polytechnic University Hauts-de-France (the LAMIH Laboratory of Industrial and Human–Automation Control, Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science) and Polytechnic Institute of Bragança (the CeDRI Research Centre in Digitalization and Intelligent Robotics).
The main objective of SOHOMA workshops is to foster innovation in smart and sustainable manufacturing and logistics systems by promoting concepts, methods and solutions addressing trends in service orientation of agent-based control technologies with distributed intelligence.
Following the workshop’s technical programme, the book is structured in seven parts that group a number of chapters reporting results of research in the lines of the digital transformation in manufacturing, supply and logistics for reality awareness of control, optimization of production planning and scheduling, process resilience, shop floor agility and sustainability: Part 1: Supply Chain 4.0 and the Physical Internet; Part 2: Engineering Ethics and Human Integration in Industry 4.0; Part 3: Digital Twin for Cyber-Physical Production Systems; Part 4: Cloud Manufacturing and Machine Learning Models in Cyber-Physical Production Systems; Part 5: Software Design Models for Industrial Automation Systems; Part 6: Control Approaches in Cyber-Physical Production Systems for Industry 4.0 and Industry 4.0; Part 7: Digital Transformation in Construction, Building Management.
