Hi! Martin,

See my two-cent as attached. Type 3 seems to be a better one in that 
CPPS (which needs to have some level of autonomy in a smart 
manufacturing environment)  can be clearly identified.

Cheers

Xun

and AP238

All,

The first attachment shows connectivity options being considered for the 
Digital Twin manufacturing framework (ISO 23247).

The second attachment shows an EXPRESS-G schema for the second edition 
of AP238 Edition 2.

We have some questions:

 1. There are fours types of connectivity can you say which should be
    supported in the framework?
 2. What is the best name for the Digital Twin Core? Suggestions include
    the Digital Twin Agent and the Digital Twin Manager.
 3. Are you able to navigate around the AP238 Edition 2 schema? You
    should be able to load the SVG file into any browser except Internet
    Explorer.
 4. For IMTS 2018, we used AP238 to define the twins (see below). What
    other schemata are appropriate for the Digital Twin Core/Agent/Manager?

Thanks in advance for any response you can give us. Please send us a 
response if you can. You do not have to answer all the questions.

Martin
