IPS~2-KOP: IPS~2 Knowledge-Based Service-Oriented Lifecycle Management Platform

摘要

Besides the need for data availability and highly dynamic processes, IPS~2 is characterized by a very high degree of interaction between manufacturer, wholesaler, and customer with fluctuant intensity of requirement adaptations and changes within the IPS~2 network in various ways. In this paper, we will introduce an IPS~2 knowledge-based lifecycle management platform (IPS~2-KOP) based on the principles of service oriented architecture (SOA) to solve the problem of streamlining processes and interfaces between collaborators. The coherence of the given data builds a valuable source for knowledge-based information retrieval, and therefore, new valuable data can be created and stored to supply the knowledge-based assistance systems, which support for example decision makers with real-time analysis.
