Abstract: A system includes at least one hardware processor and a memory storing a plurality of service configurations and a plurality of configuration programs, including a first configuration program, and a first service configuration identifying at least one conditional element and the first configuration program. The system also includes a customization engine configured to receive a REST call from a requesting device, the REST call identifying an IIoT machine, the IIoT machine executing a service exposing a REST-ful API.

Abstract: A lightning protection system for protecting composite structures and a method of protecting composite structures from lightning strikes. A dielectric ply is fixed above and completely covers metal surface features, e.g., skin fasteners through a composite skin to a wing fuel tank. A conductive ply is fixed above and completely covers the dielectric ply and extends to an external connection to a platform ground. The conductive ply directs current from lightning strikes away from metal surface features, e.g., to the platform ground to preventing sparking in the fuel tank. Both plies may be adhesively backed and sequentially pressed into place.
