Towards a Modular Architecture for Industrial HMIs
Muddasir Shakil, Alois Zoitl · 2020
This paper presents a work in progress on a modular architecture design of industrial HMIs. The proposed approach is based on a micro frontend architecture style for developing web applications. It allows developers and integration engineers to build an HMI from distributed and modular shop-floor components called micro frontend. Each micro frontend is end-to-end integrated from its data acquisition to the user interfaces. This approach introduces an agile and modular development style of an industrial HMI for a modular and adaptive production system.
