Abstract
In current efforts to digitize manufacturing, a wide range of integration solutions are being considered to enable manufacturing processes to adapt to change. At the same time companies are currently struggling with rapidly changing requirements and production factors, among other things. This is a problem for the human being as an actor within the factory, as the amount of new technologies and protocols increases the training effort. Proprietary interfaces of the control providers, a wide range of different communication protocols, complicate the understanding of the production processes, the evaluation and testability of new use cases and increase the danger of creating silos of knowledge as well as building collaboration barriers. As a solution to these problems, we propose an open software platform and define a way to model use case driven domain-specific asset representation (DSA) that focuses on the human being and his needs for representing the factory in a way that it meets his requirements for the current production needs without the need to know technical details of every protocol used by the machines.
