Abstract:
Digital representations of the physical world through the renowned “digital twin” concept, within industry 4.0 and Industrial IoT environments, have given rise to several digital modelling approaches. This paper illustrates a complete digital model specifically focused on intensive Big Data operations which is a common industry4.0 requirement. The model is established on patterns of world acclaimed standards-based digital models, as it was deployed successfully in one predictive maintenance manufacturing project and one project on edge computing with a blockchain layer. Furthermore, the paper introduces the Common Interoperability Registry, a novel addition in the form of a standards-based, vendor-neutral method to map object entities belonging to different systems/databases. This facilitates discoverability and inserts a global unique identifier among entities from different functional domains.
