Abstract: Techniques for configuring data protection settings for data of an industrial system or an electric power system are provided. The industrial system or the electric power system includes at least one gateway via which the data are transmitted to a computing resource for processing and/or storing. One or several privacy-preserving techniques to be applied to the data are automatically determined. The one or several privacy-preserving techniques being determined based on data privacy requirements for the data and processing operations to be performed on the data by the computing resource. The determined one or several privacy-preserving techniques are automatically applied.

Abstract: A method for detecting system problems in a distributed control system including a plurality of computational devices is suggested. The method includes:—deploying one or more software agents on one or more devices of the system;—monitoring, via the one or more software agents, a system configuration and/or a system functionality;—detecting a problem in the monitored system configuration and/or a system functionality;—adding one or more new software agents and deploying the one or more new software agents on one or more devices of the system associated with the problem;—collecting data associated with the problem, via the added software agents.

Abstract: A method for allocating fog applications in a fog network with a plurality of fog nodes is suggested. The method includes: providing an application model; providing a fog network image that reflects the properties of the fog network; performing a resource usage test of the application model on the fog network image, and receiving resource requirements for the fog network; creating a concrete application model based on the application model, wherein the concrete application model contains the received resource requirements; and performing allocation of the concrete application model on one or more of the fog nodes of the fog network.

Abstract: Techniques for configuring data protection settings for data of an industrial system or an electric power system (20) are provided. The industrial system or the electric power system (20) comprises at least one gateway (24) via which the data are transmitted to a computing resource (25) for processing and/or storing. One or several privacy-preserving techniques to be applied to the data are automatically determined. The one or several privacy-preserving techniques being determined based on data privacy requirements for the data and processing operations to be performed on the data by the computing resource (25). The determined one or several privacy-preserving techniques are automatically applied.
