Abstract (EN):
This paper presents an overview of the evolution of manufacturing systems integrating infrastructures and standards, ranging from industrial network standards(1) such as MAP(2) and CNMA(3), that essentially support hardware integration, distributed platforms like OSF/DCE4 and OMG/CORBA(5) promoting industrial applications integration, up to integration frameworks like CIMOSA(6) which try to encompass all the aspects linked to business integration. This overview has a particular emphasis on the integrating infrastructure concepts towards enterprise integration. The advantages and constraints of a CIMOSA integrating infrastructure implementation using OSF/DCE is also presented and discussed.
