Design of a Cyber Physical Framework for the assembly of micro devices

Micro Devices Assembly (MDA) is an emerging domain with a significant economic potential. Existing methods for assembly of micro devices are tedious and costly. For this reason, it is important to develop a collaborative framework for the field of MDA. In this thesis, a Cyber Physical Framework (CPF) is proposed to support a collaborative approach using software and physical resources for rapid assembly of micro devices in a distributed environment. CPF adopts the cloud computing principles to improve the Quality of Experience (QoE) of users accessing the simulation videos and physical assembly videos. The cloud computing principle enables the distributed engineers/users to access the cyber physical resources from various locations.
