*Track proposed by:*  Hervé Panetto, Arturo Molina, Ricardo
Jardim-Goncalves, Stadzisz Paulo C., Qing-Shan Jia
*Abstract:*  The sensing enterprise is a digital business innovationconcept
making Internet of Things, Service Oriented Architectures and Advanced
Human Computer Interactions converge for more agile, flexible and proactive
management of unexpected events in the global value networks of today. In
essence, it concerns the adoption of Future Internet technologies for the
virtual enterprise and its value network. Translating the same concept to
production systems in manufacturing enterprises, and moreover to Smart
Systems in general (smart manufacturing, smart cities, smart logistics …),
the capability by next generation systems sensing, modelling and
interpreting the signals from the real world is a pre-requisite for a more
flexible and agile reconfiguration of those smart systems. Intuitively, a
sensing system requires resources and machineries to be constantly
monitored, configured and easily interacted by blue collar workers. All
these functions, and much more indeed, are now implemented by so-called
Cyber Physical Systems (CPS). With advent of the new paradigms of
Industrial Internet-of-Things and Cyber-Physical Systems, the number and
the diversity of systems that need to work together in the future
enterprises have significantly increased. This trend highlights the need to
shift the interoperability aradigm from the classic consideration of
interoperating pair of systems, towards the interoperability as a
capability to sense and perceive the exchanged messages, as well as to
purposefully and socially act upon their perceptions. Such a shift could
have important consequences on the future architecture design of these
systems. The emergence of cloud based technologies will have a significant
impact on the design and implementation of cyber physical systems; using
such novel technologies, collaborative engineering practises will increase
globally which will enable a new generation of small scale industrial
organizations to function in an information centric manner. The potential
of such technologies in fostering a leaner and more agile approach towards
engineering is also very high. Engineers and engineering organizations no
longer have to be restricted to the availability of advanced processing
capabilities.
