Abstract
Within the European research projects OSACA (Open System Architecture for Controls with Automation Systems) and OCEAN (Open Controller Enabled by an Advanced real-time Network) an open control architecture has been developed as of 1992. One of the objectives of these research projects was to modularize numerical controls and to adjust their functional range to the individual needs of the user. In the DFG-sponsored research project “Minimalsteuerung” (minimal control) the special requirements of large-scale production concerning the functional range of numerical controls were identified. This resulted in a new definition of modularization requirements in excess of the open control architectures of the OSACA and OCEAN projects.
