A new process-specification software language (ISO 18629) promises to enable computers to reason much more precisely, better reflecting subtleties intended by human operator commands.
ISO 18629 uses artificial intelligence and language analysis to represent computer commands in the context of a manufacturing plan. Researchers have incorporated roughly 300 concepts (e.g., duration and sequence) into its structure. The language is especially suited for the exchange of process planning, validation, production scheduling, and control information for guiding manufacturing processes.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has already approved six sections of the standard, and is currently reviewing the final three sections. Once ISO approval is obtained, software vendors will begin building a variety of manufacturing systems that conform to ISO 18629.
