Abstract

Industry 4.0 provides intelligent factories, intelligent processes, and cyber-physical systems. Systems of the future will have to be able to handle adversities autonomously. Nowadays, engineering practices are increasingly distributed and decentralized, thus causing challenges to the level of interoperability between the various systems developed. Regardless of the structure of the databases, it is necessary to have a mechanism that guarantees the interoperability between these systems. In this paper, we present two types of integrations through ontologies: vertical integration that is a way to achieve semantic interoperability between industrial plant, MES, and ERP and horizontal integration to achieve interoperability throughout the product lifecycle. Finally, this interoperability contribution was crucial to develop an asset efficiency system.
