To provide the best training in software engineering, several approaches and strategies are carried out. Some of them are more theoretical, learned through books and manuals, while others have a practical focus and often done in collaboration with companies. In this paper, we share an approach based on a balanced mix to foster the assimilation of knowledge, the approximation with what is done in software companies and student motivation. A survey was also carried out involving students who had successfully completed the subject in past academic years; some had already graduated, and others are still students. We analyse the results of the survey and share some of the experiences and lessons learned.
Industry 4.0 is the movement towards a fourth industrial
revolution that will consist in the digitization and integration
of all value chain. In Europe, this movement is led by the German
RAMI 4.0 (Reference Architecture for Industry 4.0) proposal,
which is attracting a lot of attention from industry, academia
and other practitioners. Under the RAMI 4.0 scope there is an
Administration Shell proposal to abstract physical and logical
assets in a standardized way. Once abstracted, assets become
Industry 4.0 Components and can be fully integrated in the
Cyber Physical Production System or value chain. This work
focuses on the utilization of software components within the
Administration Shell. There is a necessity to represent software
components and their relation to industrial asset. Therefore, control
and monitoring applications involving software components
and other assets can be represented in compliance with the I4.0
Component Model. To address this necessity the Smart Object
Self Description information model is proposed and applied to a
real case study scenario.
