Abstract
Process planning and manufacturing execution are two major functions in a product development cycle. Industries require these functions to be able to plug and play with other related manufacturing applications, such as design, resource planning, production scheduling, and equipment control. There are information barriers to interoperability among commercial systems in these areas. Based on the activity models for process planning and manufacturing execution, a set of foundation interfaces has been developed to cope with the problem. The interfaces are expected to evolve as the new technology and industrial practices emerge.
