Products in the age of industry 4.0
4
• More versions of the same product • Lot size 1
• Cyber-Physical systems
• Semantic product memory • Semantic technolgies as key
technology for the approach
• Semantic layers to connect product properties with business and manufacturing processes
Sermantics2015
Documentation in the age of industry 4.0
5
• Individual products need individual documentations
• Eventually documentation moves from hierarchical structures to topic oriented models.
• Metadata can not only be used for the publication process
• Topic oriented documentation models lilke DITA are supported by XML-Editors like Oxygen
Sermantics2015
Processes in the age of industry 4.0
6
• „Actionable“ semantic models • Integration is only half way
• Integration level „knows“ what has to happen if changes occur
• Service descriptions for orchestration of individual product demands
• Vocabulary has to be controlled in all systems

Starting position
10
• Increased version diversity
• Many systems involved during development of new products
• Requirement engineering
• Source-Code repositories
• PDM-systems
• FrameMaker, LaTex, Word…
• File systems
• No support for • Reuse
• Change-Management
• Traceability
Sermantics2015
Project goals
• Reuse of information • In all systems • Usable for engineer and end user documentation
• Traceability and visualization of dependencies • Consequences of change
• Cockpit for project status and progress • Simulation of changes in late phase of the project • State of the project
• Many different users and roles for the system • Detailed access rights model is necessary
Sermantics2015
Basic decisions
• Every documentation has to move to structured XML • DITA
• Integration of the data is not enough • Changes, versions and workflows have to be implemented
• Existing systems will not be changed or replaced
• A semantic layer providing access rights and workflow support ist needed
• Formalize the process of development and documentation • Harmonize the vocabulary

Lessons learned
19
• Industry 4.0 scenarios have already arrived in the daily business of companies
• Semantic models are the (only) way to integrate the structure of different systems
• Systems involved in the product design, development and documentation process are able to provide their data at least in XML (ReqIf, DITA)
• Technical integration is „easy“
• What does „approved“ mean?, What is a version?
• Genereric model allows easy reuse
