Hannover, 23rd of April 2018
Paris, 17th of May 2018

2. Trilateral Motivation
Strong European industrial base Europe has strong global players within manufacturing supply (components, machines, plants)
Furthermore intensive supply value chains between European countries has been established
France | Italy | Germany Strong players in international Standardization
Joint approach for Europe Forming together concepts and bringing them into Standardization to form together: Smart Manufacturing ─ Made in Europe

3. Trilateral Initiation|Torino
Core areas of cooperation The cooperation is based on the following three core subjects of shared interests:
WG 1 Standardization and reference architectures (Coordinator Germany, SCI 4.0)
WG 2 Engagement of SMEs and test beds (Coordinator Italy, Piano Industria 4.0)
WG 3 Policy supporting group (Coordinator France, Alliance Industrie du future)c
Initiated at in Torino

4. Trilateral Engagement
Core areas of cooperation The cooperation is based on the following three core subjects of shared interests:
WG 1 Standardization and reference architectures (Coordinator Germany, SCI 4.0)
WG 2 Engagement of SMEs and test beds (Coordinator Italy, Piano Industria 4.0)
WG 3 Policy supporting group (Coordinator France, Alliance Industrie du future)
Identify, analyse and collect relevant standards
Align standardisation activities
Work on the joint Administration Shell concepts
Integrate SMEs in the field of standardisation

5. Trilateral Engagement
Core areas of cooperation The cooperation is based on the following three core subjects of shared interests:
WG 1 Standardization and reference architectures (Coordinator Germany, SCI 4.0)
WG 2 Engagement of SMEs and test beds (Coordinator Italy, Piano Industria 4.0)
WG 3 Policy supporting group (Coordinator France, Alliance Industrie du future)
Digitisation more accessible for SMEs
Maping use cases from all three countries and interlink them
Diffuse and complete Industry 4.0 scenarios
Promote an international network of test infrastructures

6. Trilateral Engagement
Core areas of cooperation The cooperation is based on the following three core subjects of shared interests:
WG 1 Standardization and reference architectures (Coordinator Germany, SCI 4.0)
WG 2 Engagement of SMEs and test beds (Coordinator Italy, Piano Industria 4.0)
WG 3 Policy supporting group (Coordinator France, Alliance Industrie du future)
Industry needs a favourable environment to efficiently benefit from digitisation
Exchange best practices on policies and programs in various fields and levels
coordinate shared positions of the three countries at the European level and in international forums

12. Next1: The User Document Goal:
The ‘User Document’ goal is to support an effective exploitation and adoption of Smart Manufacturing by assuring a strict link between WG1 technical activities (described in the “AAS" document) and their industrial reference base.
The adopted approach is to collect perceived industrial requirements and challenges for the "Digital Industry" – "Industry 4.0", by interviewing manufacturing companies, system integrators, machinery builders, components and IT suppliers, with a special care for SMEs. Planned Publication: Bi-MU Milano in October (Editor: Italy)
Table of contents:
Relevant challenges:
e.g. Scalability (cost, complexity). Applicable while re-vamping existing plants. "Lock-in" to selected IT suppliers. Data and knowledge protection & sharing. etc…
Mapping benefits and challenges on the proposed technical solutions
Scenario: Industry 4.0 and Trilateral WG 1 activity
Expected industrial benefits:
e.g. Interoperability, Real Time Capability, Additional customer services, …

13. Next2: AAS detailed interface specification
Goal:
Initiate a detailed interface specification for the Administration Shell
concept requirements
UML (Universal Model Language)
Enabling implementations
transfer to a description model
„UML-Model“
Enable implementations for Testbeds (WG2)
example
The ‘UML-Model’ is the basic for starting real implementations within e.g. testbeds of WG2. By defining together a UML-Model, the agreed principials and their interactions will be precisely described.
Possible finalization: by end of (Editor: Germany)

14. Next3: forming a European platform to develop
standard submodels for AAS properties
Goal:
AAS properties belonging to a certain technical domain are aggregated in submodels. Their definition can relay on several IEC and ISO standards and other specifications (e.g.
A recognized organization and methodology for the definition of a standard set of submodels is a key factor to assure AAS interoperability.
Basic properties
Properties that are mandatory and standardised for all Administration Shells.
Mandatory properties
Properties that are mandatory and standardised for submodels of Administration Shells.
Optional properties
Properties that are standardised but non-mandatory for submodels of Administration Shells.
Free properties
Properties that are non-standardised and non-compulsory for submodels of Administration Shells, e. g. manufacturer-specific properties.
