How are ISO and CEN Enterprise Integration Standards Related ?

The International Stadards Organization established Technical Committee 184 Sub-Committe 5 Working Group 1 (or ISO TC184 SC5 WG1 for short) envisions a set of standards to evaluate a process in terms of :

• what it does,
• the information it needs, and
• the data it provides.
• whether it meets quality, capability, and interface guidelines

In addressing these requirements, ISO shares many of the objectives of CEN ENV 40003 (CIMOSA). It was therefore agreed that the two groups would cooperate in development of standards as described below.

Click on graphic above or listing below for more information on each standard.

ISO Standards

• ISO 14258 - Concepts and Rules for Enterprise Models.
• ISO 15704 - Requirements for enterprise-reference architectures and methodologies*
• Rules for Manufacturing-Process Interoperability - Proposed Standard
• Software Capability Profiles (Complementary new ISO standard external to WG1)
• PSL - Process Specification Language - Rules for ontology
• UEML - Universal Enterprise-Modeling Language (Complementary R&D work by IFAC/IFIP Task Force. Objective is to standardize).
• ISO TR 10314 - Shop-floor-production model*

CEN Standards

• CEN ENV 40003 - CIM-systems-architecture framework for modeling (CIMOSA)*
• CEN ENV 12204 Constructs for enterprise modeling*

To promote this cooperation, Jim Nell, NIST, convenor: ISO TC184 SC5 WG1, is a member of CEN TC310 WG1, and David Shorter, convenor CEN TC310 WG1 is a member of ISO TC184 SC5 WG1.

PERA is represented in ISO TC 184 SC5 WG1 by Ted Williams. Gary Rathwell recently joined CEN TC310 WG1 as an "invited expert".
