Overview

The efficiency of enterprise operation is seriouslyconstrained by the inability to provide the rightinformation, in the right place, at the righttime. It isstill difficult to access information used or produced bydifferent applications, due to the hardware and softwareincompatibilities of manufacturing and informationprocessing equipment. It is the aim of the ESPRIT projectAMICE (European Computer Integrated ManufacturingArchitecture) to make the enterprise knowledge baseavailable enterprise-wide. This book reports work carried out in the framework of theESPRIT project AMICE on CIMOSA (Open System Architecture forComputer Integrated Manufacturing). CIMOSA provides a newapproach for enterprise modelling. It is based on areference architecture for common and consistent enterprisedescription, a system lifecycle definition focusing onmodel maintenance and update rather than model creation, andan integrating infrastructure for model engineering andexecution that enables enterprise operation control andmonitoring in heterogeneous environments. This second edition significantly extends thespecificationof CIMOSA in several ways. Constructs for modellingresources and organizational aspects and an extendedframeworkfor the integrating infrastructure are presented. A user guide is given for requirements modelling. Case-studyexamples are used to demonstrate templates for CIMOSAmodelling constructs. Finally several AMICE technicalreports address specific subjects.
