This book presents the unique result of discussion among interdisciplinary specialists facing recent industrial and economic challenges. It contains papers authored by both scientists and practitioners focused on an interdisciplinary approach to developing measuring techniques, robotic and mechatronic systems, industrial automation, numerical modelling and simulation, and application of artificial intelligence techniques required by the transformation leading to Industry 4.0. We strongly believe that the solutions and guidelines presented in this book will be useful to both researchers and engineers facing problems associated with developing cyber-physical systems for global development.

This volume presents the results of recent research, which supports the postulated transformation. It contains papers written by both scientists and engineers dealing with diverse aspects of: measuring techniques, robotics, mechatronics systems, control, industrial automation, numerical modelling and simulation as well as application of artificial intelligence techniques required by the transformation of the industry towards the Industry 4.0. We strongly believe that the solutions and guidelines presented in this volume will be useful for both researchers and engineers solving problems that have emerged during the recent crisis.

This book consists of papers presented at Automation 2018, an international conference held in Warsaw from March 21 to 23, 2018. It discusses the radical technological changes occurring due to the INDUSTRY 4.0, with a focus on offering a better understanding of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Each chapter presents a detailed analysis of interdisciplinary knowledge, numerical modeling and simulation as well as the application of cyber-physical systems, where information technology and physical devices create synergic systems leading to unprecedented efficiency. The theoretical results, practical solutions and guidelines presented are valuable for both researchers working in the area of engineering sciences and practitioners looking for solutions to industrial problems.

This book presents the scientific outcomes of the International Conference AUTOMATION 2020, held on March 18–20, 2020 in Warsaw, Poland. The next 30 years will see radical innovations in production processes, transportation management and social life. The changes brought about by the transformation to zero-emission industry require advances in many fields, but especially in industrial automation, robotics and measurement techniques associated with the cyber-physical systems employing artificial intelligence that will be key to reducing costs and enabling European society to maintain its quality of live. In this context, the book features the latest research toward further developing these fields of engineering, and also offers solutions and guidelines that are useful for both researchers and engineers addressing problems associated with the world of ongoing radical changes.
