Abstract:
Purpose. Agile Production Systems Engineering (PSE) is characterised
by parallel and iterative engineering of several disciplines. This multiview engineering requires capabilities for tracing changes to support configuration management of PSE assets. Yet, traditional model transformation approaches in PSE do not preserve local views and hierarchies on
concepts of PSE assets, such as plans and configurations. Thus, tracing
multi-view changes to PSE assets is challenging. Method. Following the
Design Science approach, we (i) elicit requirements for tracing multi-view
changes to PSE assets from a domain analysis in automotive manufacturing; (ii) introduce and evaluate the Traceable Multi-view Model Transformation (TMvMT) process; and (iii) propose the TMvMT pipeline architecture to provide traceable model integration capabilities for agile PSE.
Results. In a feasibility study on robot cell models, we evaluate
the TMvMT process and architecture regarding the requirements for
traceability compared to traditional approaches. Conclusion. The
proposed TMvMT approach provides traceability of changes in multiview modelling as a basis for traceable configuration management and
validation of system designs for production system assets in agile PSE.
