32. Incremental Modernization of Legacy Hydraulic Metrology Infrastructure Using Open-Source Edge Architectures.

Gustavo Esteves Coelho (Laboratório Nacional de Engenharia Civil (LNEC))

28/09/2026, 16:30

Oral presentation

Legacy industrial infrastructures supporting critical metrology operations increasingly face maintenance and cybersecurity challenges due to obsolete proprietary technologies and centralized monolithic architectures. This work presents an incremental modernization strategy for the Unit of Hydraulic Metrology (UHM) at the Portuguese National Laboratory for Civil Engineering (LNEC), recognized...

27. Simulation-Based Measurement of Information Value in Circular Economy Networks

László Zahorán (HUN-REN SZTAKI)

T11 - Digital transformation.

Circular economy networks require not only physical recovery capabilities, but also timely information about inventories, repair status, remanufacturing progress, and expected availability. Reusable products or components may already exist somewhere in the network, or may become available after repair or remanufacturing, but these resources cannot support fulfilment decisions if they remain...

31. Towards Metrologically Grounded Sensor-Network Digital Twins for Structural Health Monitoring

João Paulo Narciso dos Reis (National Laboratory for Civil Engineering)

28/09/2026, 17:10

Oral presentation

Long-term structural health monitoring (SHM) depends on sensor readings whose metrological validity may change over time. The installed sensors pose a metrological challenge when periodic laboratory calibration is impractical or impossible. This paper proposes a lakehouse-supported conceptual architecture for a metrologically grounded sensor-network digital twin whose twinned object is the...

2. The New Inmetro Seal as a Digitally Verifiable Conformity Mark: Digital Verification, Fraud Detection and Quality Infrastructure

Leonardo Batista Paiva (National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology (Inmetro))

28/09/2026, 17:30

T11 - Digital transformation.

Oral presentation

This paper examines the new Inmetro seal as a digitally verifiable conformity mark and as a visible market-facing expression of quality infrastructure outcomes in Brazil. Building on the problem of information asymmetry and on recent discussions about label credibility, digital traceability, and verifiable conformity information, it argues that the seal acquires a new functional role when...
