I4.0-compliant integration of assets utilizing the Asset Administration Shell
Abstract
Global trends such as mass customization and lot size one, demand flexibility, autonomy and adaptability in production. Interoperability of devices is a key challenge as production systems evolve into Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS). As part of the German strategic project Industrie 4.0 (I4.0), concepts and solutions for continuous digitization of production are being developed, in order to meet these numerous challenges. The concept of the Asset Administration Shell (AAS) was introduced in order to provide data and information in a standardized and semantically described manner, thus enabling interoperability and easy interaction. In this paper, we show how users can translate a semantic description of plants, machines or individual components that are based on a standardized Open Platform Communication Unified Architecture (OPC UA) information model, into the AAS information model.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
