AI Toolbox Concept for the Arrowhead Framework

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a game-changer across numerous industrial areas, revolutionizing the way businesses operate and enhancing their competitiveness. The Arrowhead Framework, renowned for its service-oriented architecture and interconnectivity principles, presents an ideal platform for the development and deployment of AI-driven solutions for industrial Cyber-physical System of Systems (CPSoS). This paper delves into the formulation of an AI Toolbox that enhances the capabilities of the Arrowhead Framework, aiming to harness the synergies between AI and a robust architectural foundation. The paper presents the main objectives and requirements for the AI Toolbox, and also describes its concept, operation, and deployment principles. For a better understanding, the paper demonstrates how the AI Toolbox works through a generic industrial safety use case. In conclusion, this paper contributes a comprehensive perspective on the formulation of the Arrowhead AI Toolbox, demonstrating how the Arrowhead Framework can offer AI-based services for industrial use cases.
