Objective
The objectives of this project were to:
-design an open systems architecture for CIM
-define a set of concepts and rules to facilitate the building of future CIM systems
-support migration of existing implementations.
The objectives of this project were to design an open systems architecture (OSA) for computer integrated manufacture (CIM), to define a set of concepts and rules to facilitate the building of future CIM systems and to support migration of existing implementations.
CIM-OSA is composed of a consistent set of complementary reference models capable of modelling enterprise requirements in terms of functions, information, resources and organisation and of modelling the implemented CIM systems derived from the requirements model. A key part of the implementation model is the integrated infrastructure (IIS), dealing with the definition of the integrating services, such as communications, information, machine and human front ends and the business process. This IIS provides a common platform to integrate the heterogeneous manufacturing and information technology environments. The IIS builds on and uses the upper layers of the International Standards Organization (ISO) open systems interconnection model. The work is complementary to the manufacturing automation protocols (MAP) initiative and to communications network for manufacturing applications (CNMA). CIM-OSA is complementary to the ISO open distributed processing (ODP) initiative. A document defining the CIM-OSA reference architecture specifications has been published.

CIM-OSA is complementary to the ISO Open Distributed Processing (ODP) initiative (ESPRIT Project 2267, ISA). A document defining the CIM-OSA reference architecture specifications has been published.
Exploitation
The project has actively promoted the architecture in the consortium, the industry and relevant standardisation organisations. The CIM-OSA modelling framework has been accepted as ENV 40 003 (European pre-standard) by the CEN/CENELEC member countries. It is also an active work item in ISO TC184. Promotion will be significantly supported by the available of the IIS and modelling tool prototypes. These prototypes will be used to validate the CIM-OSA release 1 and to demonstrate the capabilities of CIM-OSA. The architecture will be employed by both users and vendors in the consortium in evaluating and planning their future developments.
