An integrated approach for open e-Maintenance

Projekt:

Sammanfattning:
The present day e-maintenance space is evolving with isolated legacy sub-systems or packages that span heterogeneous and domain specific industry verticals. Developing a unified platform for e-maintenance catering to the varied domains shall hence pose a major challenge. An open systems based platform for emaintenance can overcome some of these hurdles by defining the otherwise disparate systems as abstract entities with well defined public interfaces. The interfaces can be broadly classified based on the technology types, thus allowing individual vertical emaintenance applications to align with their respective business interests. In all, this shall greatly help in reducing the overall operating costs and at the same time provide increased flexibility, reusability and reliability. The underlying standard protocol, defined through a group consensus, shall be responsible for transport of the e-maintenance data between the distributed subsystems via the TCP/IP standard within multiple administrative domains of e-maintenance across wired and wireless networks. This paper also looks at e-maintenance from a systems integration perspective and illustrates how open systems based approach can help achieve integration better.
