ANALYSIS OF THE SUITABILITY OF RELEVANT FRAMEWORKS FOR DIGITALIZATION IN CONNECTION WITH CYBER-PHYSICAL SYSTEMS

Summary/Abstract: Digitalization is the key drive of innovation and growth for companies and economies. The focus is on efficiency gains, flexibilisation and better use of resources. Digitalization is increasingly associated with cyber-physical systems, and this represents a considerable challenge in terms of implementation. Studies indicate that the implementation success of this type of project is stagnating, which leads to the conclusion that new implementation approaches are needed. The following questions therefore need to be researched: Which fundamental, implementation-relevant dimensions need to be considered in digitalization projects with cyber-physical systems? Which frameworks exist to support the implementation of digitalization projects with cyber-physical systems, which dimensions do they offer and how high is the coverage with the required, implementation- relevant dimensions?In the first step, all dimensions were identified that are related to digitalization in a business context. In the second step, digitalisation-related frameworks were analysed and evaluated in the third step. “Systems Engineering GfSE/INCOSE – ISO/IEC 15288” emerged as a convincing framework. This theoretical research forms the basis for subsequent empirical research to create a framework for implementation recommendations for digitalization with cyber-physical systems.
