Abstract
Today, industrial production and supply chains are facing increased
demands regarding flexibility and transparency of processes, caused by a trend for
mass-customization and increasingly tighter regulations for the traceability of
goods. To fulfill such challenging market demands, auto-ID technologies and
semantic product descriptions are becoming part of future value chains. In this
paper a modelling approach for a digital object memory (DOM) allowing for the
attachment of product life cycle (PLC) information to everyday objects is
presented. After reporting on the design aims, memory architecture and data
structure, potential benefits of the chosen approach are presented.
