Historically, across automated manufacturing floors, many individually computerized and de-centralized workloads, such as image processing, computer vision, networking, AI-inference and others, drove machine operations with different levels of control that enabled manufacturers to scale.

With the Internet of Things (IoT) and digitalization transforming industrial operations, more and more of these controls such as PLC, HMI, PAC, etc are now being centralized onto a common compute platform. Companies seek new ways to consolidate technologies and workloads, processing into as few physical components as possible. Such industry requirements form the basis of industry 4.0 modernization and give way to the principles of software-defined manufacturing on workload consolidation.

Workload consolidation unites multiple computerized operations onto fewer platforms, replacing separate purpose-built hardware machines with a smaller foundation of general-purpose compute technologies. Reducing hardware infrastructure and utilizing more of existing resources helps to optimize operations.

Virtual PLC is one of the most efficient and trending solution to consolidate control applications for Industrial Automation equipment and using containerization or virtualization multiple virtual PLCs, HMIs and AI workloads can run on the same single hardware. In this session you will learn about:

• Workload consolidation concept and modern Intel^® Time Coordinated Computing capabilities
• CODESYS Virtual Control
• OpenVINO^™Toolkit and how to run OpenVINO^™ based applications in containers.
• Live demo consolidating a CODESYS Virtual PLC and an AI-application on the same hardware.
