Standardized Information Exchange Within Production System Engineering

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Abstract

Information exchange is one of the critical issues within the multi-disciplinary engineering chain of production system engineering. In the subsequent chapter the problem of identifying and standardizing an appropriate data exchange format for this field of application will be considered. It will be argued, why AutomationML can be an appropriate choice to fulfil current requirements.
