Asset administration shell for industrial application - Part 4: Use cases and modelling examples
Abstract
The Asset Administration Shell is a standardized digital representation of an asset. The Asset Administration Shell gives uniform access to information of an asset and services of or related to an asset. The purpose of the Asset Administration Shell is to enable two or more software applications to exchange information and to mutually use the information that has been exchanged in a trusted and secure manner. This document assumes an application perspective of the Asset Administration Shell to develop a common understanding on how to use an Asset Administration Shell. The document describes the following topics: Use cases of the Asset Administration Shell in the form of generic descriptions of how the Asset Administration Shell is used by various actors and entities. Due to the more detailed description of the AAS compared to IEC 63278-1 based on these use cases, additional requirements for the AAS are derived and Modeling examples for Asset Administration Shells in the form of specific examples of possible modeling and procedures.
