Abstract :
A data model for macro-allocation of loads to complex production systems is presented. The paper formulates a multi-level structure of aggregated technical data and the transition between the different data levels. The allocation solving problem itself is not addressed. Multi-level allocation of work loads among distributed resources is seen as a generic mechanism to ensure global consistency of inner activities and outer interrelations of an enterprise
