  The emergence of the Industrial Internet results in an increasing number of
complicated temporal interdependencies between automation systems and the
processes to be controlled. There is a need for verification methods that scale
better than formal verification methods and which are more exact than testing.
Simulation-based runtime verification is proposed as such a method, and an
application of Metric temporal logic is presented as a contribution. The
practical scalability of the proposed approach is validated against a
production process designed by an industrial partner, resulting in the
discovery of requirement violations.
