We discussed the results of the PSU workshop. We agreed to focus on the 
optimization of individual operations for the October 5th demonstration. 
We agreed that we will need a tool to make the ISO 13399 tool assemblies 
for that demonstration.

We looked at the latest demonstration of the REST framework. The system 
is now able to change workingsteps provided the new operation uses the 
same tool as the previous workingstep.

We looked at the MTConnect data produced by the Boeing machine tool. The 
given sample reports results every 3 seconds. We would like for the 
results to be reported every 10 milliseconds.

We agreed to contact our national bodies to ask them to ensure that 
STEP-NC is included in the review being made by the ISO special advisory 
committee on Industry 4.0.

unable to complete their production due to slow connectivity issues.
