CIMOSA, standing for "Computer Integrated Manufacturing Open System Architecture", is an enterprise modeling framework, which aims to support the enterprise integration of machines, computers and people. The framework is based on the system life cycle concept, and offers a modelling language, methodology and supporting technology to support these goals.〔(''CIMOSA A Primer on key concepts, purpose and business value'' ) Online primer, last update: 02.03.1996. Accessed 01 Feb 2009.〕 It was developed in the 1990s by the AMICE Consortium, in an EU project. A non-profit organization CIMOSA Association was later established to keep ownership of the CIMOSA specification, to promote it and to support its further evolution.〔Arturo Molina, Jose Manuel Sanchez, Andrew Kusiak (1998). ''Handbook of Life Cycle Engineering: Concepts, Models, and Technologies''. pp. 187-188.〕 ==Overview== The original aim of CIMOSA (1992) was "to elaborate an open system architecture for CIM and to define a set of concepts and rules to facilitate the building of future CIM systems".〔(CIMOSA CIM Open System Architecture ). Access date 31 Oct 2008.〕 One of the main ideas of CIMOSA is the categorization of manufacturing operations in: * Generic functions: generic parts of every enterprise, independent of organisation structure or business area. * Specific (partial and particular) functions: specific for individual enterprises. The development of CIMOSA has ultimately resulted in two key items: * ''Modeling Framework'': This framework supports "all phases of the CIM system life-cycle from requirements definition, through design specification, implementation description and execution of the daily enterprise operation".〔 * ''Integrating Infrastructure'': This infrastructure provides "specific information technology services for the execution of the Particular Implementation Model", which has providen to be vendor independent and portable.〔 The framework furthermore offers an "event-driven, process-based modeling approach with the goal to cover essential enterprise aspects in one integrated model. The main aspects are the functional, behavioral, resource, information and organizational aspect".〔 CIMOSA can be applied in process simulation and analysis. Standardized CIMOSA models "can also be used on line in the manufacturing enterprise for scheduling, dispatching, monitoring and providing process information".〔(CIMOSA European Enterprise Integration Concept ) Last updated August 21, 2000 by Ted Williams. Access date 31 Oct 2008.〕 One of the standards based on CIMOSA is the Generalised Enterprise Reference Architecture and Methodology (GERAM). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「CIMOSA」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
