  text: This paper introduces CAAI, a novel cognitive architecture for artificial
    intelligence in cyber-physical production systems. The goal of the architecture
    is to reduce the implementation effort for the usage of artificial intelligence
    algorithms. The core of the CAAI is a cognitive module that processes the user's
    declarative goals, selects suitable models and algorithms, and creates a configuration
    for the execution of a processing pipeline on a big data platform. Constant observation
    and evaluation against performance criteria assess the performance of pipelines
    for many and different use cases. Based on these evaluations, the pipelines are
    automatically adapted if necessary. The modular design with well-defined interfaces
    enables the reusability and extensibility of pipeline components. A big data platform
    implements this modular design supported by technologies such as Docker, Kubernetes,
    and Kafka for virtualization and orchestration of the individual components and
    their communication. The implementation of the architecture is evaluated using
    a real-world use case. The prototypic implementation is accessible on GitHub and
    contains a demonstration.

  text: Cyber-physical production systems (CPPS) integrate physical and computational
    resources due to increasingly available sensors and processing power. This enables
    the usage of data, to create additional benefit, such as condition monitoring
    or optimization. These capabilities can lead to cognition, such that the system
    is able to adapt independently to changing circumstances by learning from additional
    sensors information. Developing a reference architecture for the design of CPPS
    and standardization of machines and software interfaces is crucial to enable compatibility
    of data usage between different machine models and vendors. This paper analysis
    existing reference architecture regarding their cognitive abilities, based on
    requirements that are derived from three different use cases. The results from
    the evaluation of the reference architectures, which include two instances that
    stem from the field of cognitive science, reveal a gap in the applicability of
    the architectures regarding the generalizability and the level of abstraction.
    While reference architectures from the field of automation are suitable to address
    use case specific requirements, and do not address the general requirements, especially
    w.r.t. adaptability, the examples from the field of cognitive science are well
    usable to reach a high level of adaption and cognition. It is desirable to merge
    advantages of both classes of architectures to address challenges in the field
    of CPPS in Industrie 4.0.
