R&D Team Manager/Cluster Manager

Your role and responsibilities
ABB Ability System 800xA is our flagship product for industrial automation and it includes AC 800M, a controller family for process control. Control applications for the AC 800M controllers are developed in our own integrated development environment, Control Builder. The control applications control the production processes by communicating with the plant equipment through various field communication buses. For communication between the control applications, an industrial communication protocol called Inter-Application Communication (IAC) is used. IAC is our own communication protocol, which has been developed specifically to meet the requirements for communication between industrial control applications, and it is built on top of Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) over UDP. Wireshark is a popular free and open-source network packet analyzer tool. It captures packets and presents them with as much detail as possible. It can be used for network troubleshooting, software development, communication protocol development and education. Wireshark supports a great number of communication protocols out of the box and it's also possible to create plugins to add support for your own protocols. The primary goal of this Master Thesis is to enable IAC communication packet analysis, to simplify package analysis for development and customer support. In this Master Thesis, a Wireshark plugin for IAC will be created and the main task is to dissect the protocol packets and present the package details in Wireshark. Details: • Period: January – June 2025 • Master Thesis: 30 credits • Work for one or two students • Location: Mainly on site at ABB Malmö Your responsibilities: • Create a Wireshark plugin for IAC • Dissect the IAC protocol packets • Present the packet details in Wireshark • Evaluate the protocol dissector
