Abstract :
Micro assembly refers to the assembly and manipulation of micron sized devices. This paper discusses an innovative cyber physical framework which straddles both the cyber environment and physical assembly environments. An advanced Virtual Assembly environment has been developed to support comparison of assembly alternatives virtually prior to physical assembly. A next generation cloud computing based approach is proposed based on the GENI infrastructure to share the assembly plans, simulation scenarios and camera monitoring tasks among the distributed resources.
