Objetivo The objective of the CNMA project was to select, implement and demonstrate profiles of existing and emerging communications standards in real production environments, thus extending MAP developments. Widespread acceptance of the communications methodologywas encouraged by providing implementation guides and common testing procedures. The project addressed all layers of the ISO/OSI model, particularly layers 6 and 7. The development and compilation of the implementation guide and conformance testing tools proceeded at the same time.The objective of the communications network for manufacturing applications (CNMA) project was to select, implement and demonstrate profiles of existing and emerging communications standards in real production environments, thus extending manufacturing automation protocol (MAP) developments. Widespread acceptance of the communications methodology was encouraged by providing implementation guides and common testing procedures. The project addressed all layers of the International Standards Organization (ISO) open system interconnection (OSI) model, particularly layers 6 and 7. The development and compilation of the implementation guide and conformance testing tools proceeded at the same time.A phase I implementation guide was publised in October 1986 and was widely circulated. The phase 2 implementation guide was published at the beginning of 1988.The achievements of the first phase of the project were demonstrated at the Hannover Fair in April 1987. A typical manufacturing cell was controlled by computing hardware from 5 vendors, interworking by using CNMA communications software. The success of this demonstration drew attention to the feasibility of multivendor systems and affected the development of the relevant international standards.A Phase I Implementation Guide was published in October 1986 and was widely circulated.

Exploitation The CNMA Phase 2 software was demonstrated by participation in the Enterprise Networking Event'88 International in Baltimore in June 1988. This underlined the compatibility of the CNMA and MAP profiles of communications standards, and provided an opportu nity for Europe to influence the development of MAP standards. Siemens demonstrated a MAP 3.0/SINEC gateway at the 1989 Hannover Fair. A product release based on this device took place in the third quarter of 1989. The CNMA profiles are used in real production applications by BMW, British Aerospace and Aeritalia. In parallel with the specification and development of communications software, conformance testing tools were released to testing institutes.
