Abstract
Our vision "Wireless technologies serve man, and control
machines and production". This vision, together with
developing wireless technologies and experience gathered
in earlier projects, gives us a strong basis from which
to work on the development of service architectures for
the wireless flexible factory floor (WFFF). WFFF means
increasing communication between production and
transportation devices that are able to complete their
tasks independently. Communication does not always need
to be, since it can be also hardwired if the device is
not mobile of wires are already existing. Adopting
communication possibilities between production and
transportation devices will provide more flexible
production and enable a remote user to control production
tasks of to monitor devices.
