Abstract
Innovative development methodologies, standards and tools for the structured design of complex automation systems are very important to configure interoperable, portable and scalable automation systems for next generation manufacturing systems. In the present work a development methodology is applied with particular reference to the automation system functional specification, which is based on emerging international standards and exploits object-oriented concepts. An application example is also addressed throughout the paper to highlight the benefits of the proposed framework. In particular, the development of automation functionalities for an highly innovative shoe manufacturing plant and regarding test is discussed.
