Nach positiver Absolvierung der Lehrveranstaltung sind Studierende in der Lage...

• distinguish Information Systems, Production Information Management Systems (PIMS), Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS) and their interrelations
• name, distinguish and explain PIMS architecture
• give examples of, apply and assess Requirements Engineering of PIMS for CPPS
• discuss and apply Business Process Management and modelling languages (UML and BPMN)
• describe and explain Process Mining methods
• discuss potentials of Cloud Computing services for PIMS and explain GAIA-X
• summarise Digital Twin and Blockchain technologies, as well as their potentials for PIMS.
• describe and define PIMS architecture for a specific CPPS use-case
• apply Requirements Engineering of PIMS for a CPPS use-case
• differentiate and formulate stakeholder and system requirements
• design and model a concept for PIMS

The ultimate goal is to develop advanced competences in information systems design and evaluation as a prerequisite for cyber-physical production systems.

• Importance of Data and Information in Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS)
• Information Systems (IS)
• Production Information Management Systems (PIMS)
• Types of PIMS and the automation pyramid
• Reference architectures of PIMS
• Requirements Engineering
• Requirements specification for PIMS in natural language and modelling languages (BPMN, UML)
• Business process management and process mining
• Cloud computing services for PIMS
• Potential of Digital Twin and Blockchain technology for PIMS
• Case studies for PIMS
• Design and modelling of use-case(s)

Lecture, discussion of case studies, independent groupwork on case studies.
