Abstract

Abstract The Technical Division “Engineering and Operation of automated plants” of the VDI-/VDE-GMA (German Association of Measurement and Automation) elaborates new approaches for an efficient engineering and operation of equipment and automated plants. Within this Division, technical committee 6.12 “Integrated engineering of automated systems” has analyzed and refined the concept of an integrated plant model over all phases of a plant’s life, since this has the potential to generate high synergy potentials by means of model reuse and early integration. Previous work of the technical committee 6.12 has addressed the changes in the value network from a business perspective. The present contribution describes how an integrated plant model should be built, maintained and used. The approach is explained in a generic way from a usage view, by the description of the system under consideration, the acting technical stakeholders and the activities that can, or must, be carried out. The approach is then elucidated by means of an example.
