contents The manufacturing sector is moving from rigid, hardware-dependent systems toward flexible, software-driven environments. This transformation is shaped by the convergence of several Software-Defined technologies: Software-Defined Automation virtualizes industrial control, replacing proprietary PLCs with containerized, programmable solutions that enable scalability and interoperability. Software-Defined Compute and Communications provide a means to distribute intelligence seamlessly across devices, networks, and cloud platforms, reducing latency and enabling dynamic reconfiguration. Software-Defined Manufacturing Systems, usually implemented as Digital Twins, are real-time virtual models of machines and processes, allowing predictive analysis, optimization, and closer integration between human operators and intelligent systems. This work presents XWAVE, a project that unites these three Software-Defined paradigms to present a modular, fully software-defined manufacturing system.
