Seamless process management across the IEC 62264 control hierarchy

Uniform toolset and methodology for seamless process management based on S-BPM. This enables: -intuitive modelling by business people and automation engineers -encapsulation of separate knowledge domains (e.g. separate layers in the automation pyramid) -process execution across different enterprise domains including real-time production processes This result requires various extensions of an existing S-BPM tool, the Metasonic Suite. Extensions include interfaces and model transformations using industrial automation standards (OPC UA, PLCopen XML, B2MML).
