Abstract

A central challenge of Industry 4.0 and IT-OT convergence is the variety of protocols, devices, and application areas legacy systems: How can users guarantee the interoperability of everything? OPC UA, short for Open Platform Communications United Architecture, have been more and more used and deployed to resolve such challenges. Anyone who wants to advertise with the label of “Industry 4.0-capable” must be OPC-UA- capable too (integrated or via a gateway). OPC UA is the interoperability standard for the secure and reliable exchange of data in the industrial automation space and in other industries.
The ” Compliance Test Tool” seeks to address the critical need for ensuring OPC UA compliance for OPC UA based products. The project project aims to design and implement an OPC UA framework that addresses all UA requirements per OPC UA specification standard.
The intern will be asked to:

• Perform a literature review to understand: OPC UA Standard
• Make a fully functional and compliant OPC UA framework
• Provide clear and concise reports indicating the compliance status of the tested OPC UA application.

The intern will learn all about OPC UA, Internet of Things, Cyber security and Programming in .NET environment.

Deliverables:

At the end of the internship, the intern shall deliver a finalized product with source codes, and documentation including:

Key Words:

IT-OT integration, Cyber Security, Industrial protocols, OPC UA, CTT, .Net core/C#
