Abstract

Interoperability is an essential characteristic of systems when they have to communicate, cooperate, or collaborate within an organization or across organizations, be they single organizations or networked organizations. Automated systems are subject to interoperability when they have to work together, i.e., to interoperate. They are also subject to a number of standards for their design, implementation, integration, maintenance, and operations. This chapter combines two parts. First, it defines systems interoperability in the context of automation and enterprise integration; reviews relevant interoperability frameworks; discusses technical, semantic, and organizational dimensions of interoperability; and presents essential underlying technologies. Second, major international standards for automation projects in small, medium, or large organizations are listed before concluding.
