CPS require multiple engineering competences across various engineering disciplines. The development of such systems is a huge challenge, also because of the heterogeneity of engineering tools involved in development platforms across the development lifecycle. In order to overcome this challenge, past and ongoing EU research projects have developed the basis for an International Open Standard for Development Tool Interoperability, the so called Interoperability Specification (IOS).
The main goals of CP-SETIS are (1) the alignment of all IOS-related forces within Europe to support a common IOS Standardisation Strategy, aiming at a formal standardisation process of the IOS, and (2) to conceive and set up a sustainable organisational structure as a platform joining all stakeholders, to coordinate all IOS-related activities, especially the formal standardisation and further extensions of the IOS.
