Abstract

Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPSs) are large-scale industrial systems in which hardware and software are deeply intertwined. CPPS software has to be highly variable to support frequently changing customer and hardware requirements. Managing the overall variability of such large-scale industrial software is challenging. Knowledge from diverse engineering disciplines, e.g., mechatronics, process, electrical, and control software engineering, is required to support product configuration. These disciplines use diverse artifacts and tools. It is infeasible to have one common variability model or one common configuration user interface representing variability knowledge from diverse disciplines in CPPSs. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the idea of a dynamic product configuration user interface, which decouples the product configuration process from the user interface based on an existing multidisciplinary variability management approach for CPPSs. We describe the next steps toward implementing and evaluating our idea.
