Abstract
The crucial role of resilience and interoperability in today’s highly dynamic cyber-physical systems (CPSs), where (timely) human intervention is limited, calls for a holistic vision that facilitates the autonomous orchestration of cyber-physical processes on the field-level. However, traditional automation and control systems are designed as static silos, which are generally configured once for a specific purpose. Hence, these systems lack the flexibility to efficiently adjust to dynamically changing system requirements, which includes the integration of heterogeneous devices and services on-request, or elastic features such as on-demand provisioning of computing and storage resources. In this work, we propose a reference architecture for implementing a cyber-physical infrastructure as-a-service (CPIaaS) framework. This framework is based on the concept of service-oriented virtualization and provides a level of flexibility and interoperability to CPS, that cannot be matched using traditional approaches for building highly integrated, cross-platform, inter-domain communication environments.

It should be noted, that the production-centric and operations-centric digital twin can be integrated into a single digital twin, or they can be kept separate, as shown in Fig. 2, which on the one hand increases the system modularity and on the other hand, reduces the complexity of each digital twin implementation and its maintenance.
