N2 - Industry 4.0-derived from the German term Industrie 4.0 is used as a synonym for Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS). I4.0 compliant CPPS shall support adaption during design as well as during operation phase. Therefore, structural and behavioral inconsistencies need to be checked in case of change. Besides technological issues, both industry and academia are well aware that best practices are necessary to establish I4.0 capable systems broadly. Especially small and medium size companies require to identify a concrete financial benefit, before they decide to buy an I4.0 compliant aPS. Enabling technologies and design principles of I4.0 are already well known: Among others these are: real-time capabilities applying Big Data analytics and technologies, and as a basis data exchange formats. Cooperation on an equal footing between involved scientific communities as well as companies working on I4.0, IoT, and CPS is required.
