Abstract :
Interoperability between different technologies in the industrial and building domains of automation has already become a significant research topic. Extending this thought towards cross-domain interoperability, synergy effects arise from the resulting unified view to process data of both domains. This facilitates savings of energy, working time and materials. In this work a cross-domain information model aiming at this goal is proposed.
