Asset Registry for CPPS (AR4CPPS, by ENG) is the implementation of a knowledge base of virtualized assets (VA). VAs are OWL2-based formal descriptions of any item of interest in the physical world that needs to be digitally represented within a BEinCPPS-based system – in particular, factory equipment. AR4CPPS exposes a web API that can be used by design-time tools to access a common online repository of specifications of factory equipment. Moreover, it is integrated with the FIWARE Context Broker, exposing VAs as NGSI read-only contexts: FIWARE-based applications can then interact with the factory equipment knowledge base - typically for site management purposes.

Dynamic CEP for CPPS (by NissaTech) is the new generation of the complex event processing systems, which enables the representation and the detection of very complex situations of interests.
Due to its layered structure, it can represent dynamic situations, usually by combining model- and data-driven modelling.

The asset will be offered as a service (hosted in the cloud)

Task Orchestration for CPPS (by HOPU) is a Collaborative Business Process Management implemented on the basis of FITMAN-CBPM and Activiti, which were extended by HOPU to support also IoT interactions (beyond the users interactions and IT connectors). Thereby, it is able to launch processes based on data-driven events as part of the interconnection with the field-level platform (HOMARD). It is  a web-based, integrated platform for the semantically-enhanced design, execution and monitoring of Business Processes in the scope of service-oriented Manufacturing Ecosystems. Targeted at the Virtual Factory domain, and based on open standards like Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) 2.0, it is delivered as a web portal in order to maximize its collaborative nature.
The Task Orchestration for CPPS provides a web portal-based container in which the core component can be accessed by users of a distributed organization, such as Virtual Enterprises in the typical Virtual Factory scenario.

Task Orchestration for CPPS is one of the key enablers for the collaboration and integration of industrial processes in order to exploit the BeinCPPS platform and integrate into the daily needs from the industries (processes) 

CPPS Publishing Services (by ENG) is the FIWARE gateway for Cyber-Physical Production Systems provided by the BEinCPPS platform. It enables the integration of shopfloor machines and devices into FIWARE-based manufacturing services and applications, using the publish/subscribe pattern for the exchange of data between the Field, Factory and Cloud levels of the BEinCPPS reference architecture. Shopfloor hardware is required to support a OPC UA interface, exposing a specific Address Space: the CPPS Publishing Services component will map the Address Space to a NGSI context published on a FIWARE Context Broker instance.

The 3D Visualization services (Dinamic visualization and Interaction – DyVisual) asset (by DFKI)  is based on the FI-WARE generic enablers (GE) for 3D-UI, i.e. XML3D (http://xml3d.org/), and DFKI’s implementation of the synchronization GE FiVES (https://github.com/fives-team/fives). XML3D is specialized for the visualization of 3D content in Web pages. For 2D content other technologies like for example http://d3js.org/ are available. Since XML3D can be seamlessly integrated with HTML5, XML3D can combine 3D content with any other content in HTML5 which is provided by other tools. The 3D Visualization services asset implemented in BEinCPPS is based on DyVisual, which  has been extended by a scene parser plugin to simplify the deployment of new scenes for the support of BEinCPPS experiments.
