110th Anniversary: Knowledge-Based Recipe Management for Production Processes

The advent of digitalization has raised new opportunities for automated decision-making and integration of production processes. However, the effective and timely use of decision-making tools requires robust and reliable data acquisition systems to extract model relevant parameters and to drive the proposed enterprise wide coordination strategies. This work aims to create a knowledge-based platform for systematic creation and management of production recipes based on industry standards, namely ANSI/ISA-88 and ANSI/ISA-95 standards. The platform supports the generation of master and control recipes ready for production planning, scheduling, and complete process management. Thus, information can be delivered as required by the decision-support tools. As a result, this framework stands for a traceable and reliable tool, which supports recipe management functionalities and could support the creation of decision systems that react to production disturbances. In addition, the framework allows for integrating th...
