Abstract :
MMS (Manufacturing Message Specification) is an OSI application protocol designed for the remote control and monitoring of industrial devices. In this paper, we study the MMS object model: the notion of class, naming, inheritance and structuring. We show that MMS is designed for simplicity but that some notions are not dealt with homogeneously in all classes of MMS objects
