Abstract

Component-based (CB) technology applied to the control system of production machinery is one of the new research developments in the automotive manufacturing sector. Although it is important to evaluate the technical aspects of this new paradigm, an appreciation of the impact from the business and human aspects is equally important to the stakeholders in the industry. Current evaluation approaches do not offer a method to capture and analyse the impact of CB technology that is simple to use and produces results that are readily understood by all the interested parties. The definition of an approach for evaluating the business and human aspects of implementing a CB system in the automotive sector is discussed. An evaluation strategy has been formulated comprising (1) knowledge elicitation, (2) investigation of future implementation scenarios, (3) data representation and analysis using enterprise modelling approaches, and (4) simulation and model analysis using proprietary software toolkits.
