Abstract
In the scope of the European Research Framework, at ITV Denkendorf new concepts, methodologies and ICT architectures for cooperation and coordination in multi-stage value added chains have been developed and applied. Starting from a cybernetic approach, methods of knowledge-oriented management have been used that support the cooperative planning of production network resources and their allocation to dynamic business processes for networked organizations.
In particular, methods for network analysis, process-oriented modeling and distribution of Organizational, Procedural and Operational Knowledge have been developed, allowing for a flexible network configuration and coordination. They have been validated and implemented in several production networks of textile small and medium enterprises (SMEs) as part of a European research project, on basis of e-business collaboration platforms.
