Abstract
Today significant numbers of running IT platforms in manufacturing system are in the end of their life cycle so transforming from current legacy expensive environment to a new and efficiency one is a must for most of the manufacturing systems. In the other hand manufacturing and production systems are large, complicated and multi-disciplinary process systems. Therefore defining a comprehensive methodology and selecting appropriate tools to apply proper changes is a critical point. In this paper firstly the needs and requirements of MES/SCADA platforms are defined and then UML and IDEF0 are specified as proper methodologies to apply in this procedure and finally different and various tools are based on selected methodologies are introduced as suitable candidates. After studying the suggested tools VISIO and Aris because of their capabilities to support the requirements and needs are recommended to apply in this change procedure.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
