Engineering of process automation and control systems, including development of specialized software
The most common classical definition says that a cyber physical system stands for interacting networks of physical and computing elements that were developed together. The computing element of a cyber physical system gathers and analyzes information and enables control over physical processes. It typically includes feedback loops so that physical processes could influence computations and vice versa
A rising number of devices with onboard processors and data storage capacity – sensor networks that are used in all extensive technical platform; medical equipment; smart homes, etc.
Integration of separate components to form bigger systems, such as Internet of Things (IoT), World Wide Sensor Net, Smart Building Environment, defence systems of the future
Limited cognitive abilities of the humans, which are lagging behind machines in their evolution. There comes the time when humans are no longer capable to handle the amount of information that is necessary for making decisions, and they are forced to involve cyber physical systems to take care of certain actions. In this case, a human being is out of the loop

HYBRID STRUCTURE
Such systems have a hybrid structure. Thus, they encompass information components responsible for process control and physical components performing the process. At the same time, there can be quite a difference between cyber physical systems designed for different industries
COMMUNICATION ENVIRONMENT
These systems have their communication environment that enables a continuous exchange of information internally and with the external environment. Such information exchange is not always controllable by the user
CONTROL CENTRE
The systems have their control centre that typically encompasses a few feedback loops and is designed to maintain the process parameters within the given ranges/limits under external impacts
DEPENDENCE ON EXTERNAL EFFECTS
Cyber physical systems are influenced by external information effects that are directed at the control subsystem or the human-machine interface or the constituting devices or the communication and network protocols
CONTROL
Such systems can be controlled both by changing their parameters and by changing their structure and redistributing the functionality between the system components

The company’s leadership are taking extensive effort to make the company conform with the global Industry 4.0 standards and trends. They realise that an organization’s success depends on precise and well-coordinated performance of each employee. If one department tries to accomplish their tasks with no interacting with the other departments, it actually does the organization more harm than good read more
In this case, team members are striving to accomplish the task set before them without thinking about the common problem or goal. This results in a few poorly finished parts of one whole. To tackle this problem, in 2018 a department of industrial cyber physical systems and solutions was established in the company. Evgeny Khrenov, who joined KONSOM GROUP back in 2008 as an engineer, was appointed the department leader. Throughout his employment, Evgeny proved to be a true expert in the field capable to adapt to swiftly changing world standards, manage the changes and – what is most important – build relationships and work teams. These skills were indispensable as the new department merged with two others: Department for Process Control Systems and Department for System Integration..
The Department for Process Control Systems was established back in 2003, and at that time it was a completely new undertaking for the company. Yury Volshchukov was offered to lead the new department. After 3 years Evgeny Vasiliev took charge and introduced quite a few changes. At the moment Evgeny acts as a chief technical officer of KONSOM GROUP. Back then the department employed just a few staff. Some of the very first and therefore most cherished projects accomplished by the department were implemented at MMK’s Oxygen Converter Facility: a steel degassing system and a vertical bulk material and ferroalloy feed control system. Later the department participated in the revamping project for NLMK and worked for MMK’s Continuous Galvanizing Line, Mill 5000, Rolling Facility No. 11 and other sites. It was from the Department for Process Control Systems that the new merged department took over their first projects.
The new department helped improve communication between the company staff and save some project implementation time. Today, dozens of the staff from different departments are working on a project acting as a single entity. The Department members continue to develop their skills by taking training classes, participating in workshops and going through certifications. The Department covers Level 0 to Level 3, which helps the company on the whole to stay in line with the Industry 4.0 strategy.
