Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration – an urgent need Martin Zelm CIMOSA Association e.V , Germany martin.zelm@cimosa.de

IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA Agenda Introduction Enterprise Integration and Standardisation Lack of Harmonisation and Impact IEC/ISO 62264 and ISO 15531 Comparison and Analysis Proposals for Improvement Conclusion Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration. IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA

Business Globalisation Increased needs for Exchange of Products Services Related information Differences in Business Rules and Legal Rules Cultural Environments National International Industry driven Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration. IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA

Enterprise Integration (EI) understand influence simplify observe monitor & control ...to enable communication, co-operation and co-ordination ...the right information, at the right place, in the right time for the interoperability of Humans Machines Computers and Organisation Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration. IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA

Enterprise Integration and Standards Example: Integrated Enterprise Control System involving Manufacturing and Business Functions Needs Flat, flexible Network Organisations Collaboration and coordination Benefits Improved communication between all parties Advanced supply chain Enhanced enterprise agility, cost savings etc.., Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration. IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA

Standardisation Environment Challenges Competing Standards Wide overlaps Ambiguous terminology Contradicting content Fragmented Organisations International National Industry initiatives Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration. IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA

IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA The needs World-wide collaboration between enterprise organisations requires standards for ICT based communication and information exchange employed in business process across organisation boundaries But, Standards are developed by multiple organisations, leading to inconsistencies in standard contents and representation causing a lack of common understanding Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration. IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA

Example: Inconsistent terminology Source: K. Kosanke Model a representation usually on a smaller scale of a device, structure, etc. Collins Dictionary a representation of something else expressed in mathematics, symbols, or words. ISO - IS 14258 a representation or description of an entity or a system, describing only the aspects considered to be relevant for its purpose ISO DIS 15531 an abstract representation of reality in any form (including mathematical, physical, symbolic, graphical, or descriptive form) to present a certain aspect of that reality for answering the questions studied ISO - IS 15704 an abstract description of reality in any form (including mathematical, physical, symbolic, graphical, or descriptive) that presents a certain aspect of that reality ISO/CEN 19439 ISO/CEN 19440 Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration.

IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA ISO 15531 Concepts Resource Model defines Resources (raw material, consumables..) without inputs and outputs The Resource Information Model defines Humans, devices, software, data sets Capacity and Capability To describe functional aspects of manufacturing resources Product Data Model defined with STEP 10303 and EXPRESS Language Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration.

IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA ISO 15531 RIM Structure Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration. IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA

IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA Content Summary IEC/ISO 62264, a multi part standard, defines activity models of manufacturing operations management that enable the enterprise system to control system integration ISO 15531, MANDATE, a multi part standard provides the representation of data related to the management of the production process and the exchange and sharing of management data within and between enterprises Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration. IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA

IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA Comparison (1) Commonalities, both standards Are concerned with the management of manufacturing data Model resources and manage the usage of resources Define generic interfaces for information exchange Reference the relevant ISO standards Differences between both standards In content, but no apparent contradictions in concept In the set of common constructs and methodology Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration.

Proposed Structure for EI Standards Source: K. Kosanke Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration. IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA

IFAC World Congress’05, PRAHA Conclusion To harmonise EI Standards it is recommended to Use the same definitions, terminology and notations Create mapping of key concepts and constructs Provide an open library of reference models and construct types Develop a more comprehensive system framework and/or standards structure Involve all stake holders (developers, integrators and users Note: Collaboration and consensus building between organisations is a prerequisite Harmonisation of Standards for Enterprise Integration.
