Industry 4.0 revolution concerns the digital transformation of manufacturingand promises to answer the ever-increasing demand of product customisation andmanufacturing flexibility while incurring low costs. To perform the requiredfactory reconfiguration, a computationally demanding optimisation process hasto be executed to find favourable solutions in a relatively short time. Whileprevious research focused on planning and scheduling of smart factories basedon cloud-based optimisation, little attention has been paid to effectiveapproaches to describe the targeted factory, the required products and theproduction processes. However, these matters are fundamental for theoptimisation engine to be correctly and efficiently performed. This paperpresents an XML-based factory modelling language to effectively describe theabove data for a given factory and commodity order and to provide a convenientinterface for altering the input information. Finally, two real-worldmanufacturing plants are provided to illustrate the feasibility of the proposeddescription language.
