Why developing a reference architecture?
The basis for providing a
methodology and set of
practices and templates that
are based on the
generalization of a set of
previous solutions used in the
industrial sectors.
Allows identifying the use of
common data/knowledge
formats as an integration
method to avoid every
connector/interface having to
convert data to/from every other
components' formats and/or the
use of interfaces and APIs
between components.
Includes different views along
with functional domains,
system properties, functions,
the description of interfaces
(e.g. APIs for platforms,
software and algorithms
components) and interactions
these elements and the
functions located outside the
reference architecture.
Supports the definition in the
early design phases of common
data models, communication
standards and exchange
formats, and common SW/HW
building blocks and define
reusable assets and models.
Enables tracing the data/knowledge
flows and streams between the
different architectural layers.
Facilitates the evaluations of the
level of integration of the sub-
systems at the system level and
how to combine the existing,
systems and sub-systems.

Reference Architectural Model Industrie4.0 (RAMI 4.0)
RAMI is a three-dimensional model reflecting:• Life Cycle and Value Stream, from development to
decommissioning, with both the perspectives of the products and services to be offered and of the supporting processes and workflows.
• Layers, in support of business and interoperability:• Business; Functions; Information; Communication;
Integration, Asset (the "Things")• Hierarchy Levels - the (factory) : from Product, Field Device,
Control Device, to Enterprise and Connected World

Industrial Internet Reference Architecture (IIRA)
The IIRA is defining the following viewpoints:• Business: identifies stakeholders and their business vision, values and
objectives.• Usage: addressing the expected system usage, it is typically represented as
sequences of activities involving human or logical (e.g. system or system components) users.
• Functional: focuses on the functional components, their structure and interrelation, the interfaces and interactions.
• Implementation: deals with the technologies needed to implement functional components
• On top of the functional model dimension, the IIRA considers two dimensions regarding:
• System Characteristics: refers to behaviours and properties resulting from the interactions of the parts of the system. Safety and security are two examples of such characteristics.
• Crosscutting Functions: refers to the additional functions that need to be provided in order to enable the major system functions. Connectivity is an example of such cross-cutting functions. Source: Industrial Internet Consortium

Reference Architecture Model Edge Computing (RAMEC)
Guided by international standards defined by ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010:2011, the architecture systematically addresses the industry's concerns about edge computing and presents solutions and frameworks. Edge Computing Reference Architecture is demonstrated using the following views:• Concept View: describes the domain models and key concepts of edge
computing.• Function View: Describes the functions and design concepts of the
development service framework, deployment and operation framework SF, CCF, and ECN in the horizontal direction, as well as of cross-layer open services, management services, lifecycle data services, and security services in the vertical direction.
• Deployment view: Describes the system deployment process and typical deployment scenarios.
• The architecture needs to meet typical cross-industry, non-functional requirements, including real-time performance, certainty, and reliability. Related technical solution recommendations are provided in the function view and deployment view.
Reference Architecture Model Edge Computing (RAMEC) is NOT a technical system architecture but an orientation guide.

Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM)
The SGAM framework and its methodology are intended to present the design of smart grid use cases in an architectural viewpoint allowing it both-specific but also neutral regarding solution and technology. • Interoperability Dimension: consists of five layers representing business
objectives and processes, functions, information exchange and models, communication protocols and components. These five layers represent an abstract and condensed version of the interoperability categories.
• Domains: covers the complete electrical energy conversion chain. This includes the domains.
• Zones: represent the hierarchical levels of power system management [IEC62357-2011]. These zones reflect a hierarchical model which considers the concept of aggregation and functional separation in power system management.

IoT 3D Architecture Approach • 3D Reference IoT Architecture• Objectives:
• Ensure that the model deals with• All the functional aspects e.g. “cross layers”• Extend to more than the functional aspects• Include extension to AI, DLTs, Digital Twins• Intelligent connectivity• Physical/Digital/Virtual/Cyber Integration• Allow the implementation of
data/information/knowledge continuum from the physical nodes, deep-edge, edge, cloud, data centre
• Platforms implementations, marketplaces• Heterogeneity of devices ( simple to autonomous,
robotics things) - Systems of Systems.• Map on other reference architectures
• A three dimensional model• Layers• Cross-cutting functions• System properties
