Description
Summary:The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is one of the key technologies of Industry 4.0 thatwill be an integral part of future smart and sustainable production. The current constitutedmodels for estimating Quality of Experience (QoE) are mainly targeting the multimediasystems. Present models for evaluating QoE, specifically leveraged by the expensivesubjective tests, are not applicable for IIoT applications. This work triggers the discussionon defining the QoE domain for IIoT services and applications. Industry-specific KPIs areproposed to assure QoE by linking business and technology domains. Tele-remote miningmachines are considered as a case study for developing the QoE model by taking intoaccount key challenges in QoE domain. As a result, QoE layered model is proposed, whichas an outcome predicts the QoE of IIoT services and applications in a form of pre-definedIndustrial KPIs. Moreover, software tool and analytical model is proposed to be used as anevaluation method for certain traffic types in the developed model.
