Different People Different Needs Oh no! I have to learn Java and OSGi! How can I build my Po. C very easily using Eclipse Kura? Eclipse Kura seems powerful for my Po. C
Solution. . . Dataflow Programming Approach … Application Logic is expressed as a directed graph Nodes • • • have inputs and/or outputs produce outputs consume inputs abstract underlying logics highly reusable and portable
Our Solution Eases developers task • • • without sacrificing much flexibility raises the abstraction level application logic is simplified to node connections extensible Eclipse Marketplace Integration

Terminologies - Wire Graph Kura Wires Dataflow Graph known as Wire Graph
Terminologies - Wire Component Each node in the Wire Graph is a Wire Component
Terminologies - Wire Component can be a producer of data and/or a consumer of data 0. . n Wire Component 0. . n Inputs to a Wire Component 0. . n Outputs from a Wire Components don’t need to have context specific knowledge about each other
Terminologies - Asset Kura Asset Model Kura Wires Asset Driver Assets are special types of Wire Components that interact with transducers For example, Modbus PLC, S 7 PLC or OPC-UA PLC etc. Device Driver
Terminologies - Wire Logical connections between the Wire Components are known as Wires
Terminologies - Wire Envelope Abstract data format decoupling Wire Components to have context specific knowledge

Demo
An IIo. T Use Case A newly installed part of a plant based on Modicon PLC running Modbus RTU, connected to an Industrial Service Gateway and pushing data to Cloud instance Control operator intends to monitor the Modbus Device connected sensors’ data and change the statuses of the connected actuators using a dashboard
