Integrating IoT Infrastructures in Industrie 4.0 Scenarios with the Asset Administration Shell
摘要
The Asset Administration Shell (AAS) specifies digital twins to enable unified access to all data and services available for a physical asset to cope with heterogeneous and fragmented data sources. The setup of an AAS infrastructure requires the integration of all relevant devices and their data. As the devices often already communicate with an IoT backend, we present three approaches to integrate an IoT backend with an AAS infrastructure, share insights into an implementation project, and briefly discuss them.
