“…In [12] a maintenance and process ontology in operation & maintenance information management is applied, but there is no binding to existing CAE standards or tools and no discussion on how to embed the ontology into the engineering process. An approach to overcome the limits of XML encoded device descriptions by employing Semantic Web technologies is presented in [13]. We could use the resulting device description ontology to extend our ontology by storing more detailed knowledge about the devices.…”

Improving efficiency in the plant construction process and providing valid resulting plant models requires a technology that validates planning and data exchange formats for plant engineering, such as CAEX (Computer Aided Engineering Exchange). Semantic Web technologies support validation mechanisms for querying and reasoning over domain models expressed in form of ontologies. In this paper, we present an approach to the automated validation of CAEX plant models by their transformation to ontologies and subsequent application of Semantic Web reasoning for validation purposes.

“…In the industrial automation field, ontologies allow to access fieldbus device information (device descriptions) using Semantic Web technologies and thus easier creation, processing and management of this information becomes possible (cf. [9]). In [10], an ontology called DomoML representing data of household appliances and their environment (i.e., rooms, furniture, etc.)…”

Abstract-The challenge of integrating heterogeneous systems in order to combine their functionality is of utmost importance for the further deployment of building automation systems. The goal is to allow comprehensive communication among the systems. This will provide enhanced possibilities thus making way for intelligent buildings. Traditionally, integration is achieved using gateways which require considerable configuration effort. To alleviate this overhead and provide a unified system view, a generic application model is proposed that can accommodate all functionality found in building automation systems. The employment of this model promises several benefits such as a central point for configuration and system access. The method of choice are ontologies, which allow to offer a seminal representation of knowledge, an abstraction of the heterogeneous network infrastructure and automatic reasoning on the stored knowledge.

With semantic web technologies being in the focus of manufacturing systems designers in recent years, different possibilities to facilitate plant processes have been analyzed. This paper takes a look on existing approaches and compares these with the demands that are given when dealing with automated information integration between different layers of the factory architecture and different phases of the equipment Lifecycle.In order to integrate information, the approach of semantically connecting different communication standards is considered. As a conceptual tool to fulfill the demands given, the use of ontologies, especially the Web Ontology Language OWL, is proposed. Finally, an idea for meeting the difficulties with heterogeneous shop floor ontologies is motivated.
