Paper Title
For Improvement of Manufacturing Software Units Reuse
Abstract
With the growing trend in the development of distributed digitalized manufacturing systems, the interoperability
of Manufacturing Software Units (MSU) is becoming more critical for manufacturing system productivity, reliability, and
security. In order to assure better development and evolution of working manufacturing units, specification of required
interoperability mechanisms should be made since the earliest phases of manufacturing system development. The specified
interoperability mechanisms are then to be designed, implemented, and tested before the phase of operating production of
integrated manufacturing system. In a given manufacturing domain, for the automation system integration, ISO 16100 series
of standards propose a profiling model to classify, store, and reuse MSU in various cases of manufacturing system
development and evolution. This paper starts from ISO 16100 MSU profiling, to associate two extended descriptions aiming
at better use of ISO 16100 series.
