Abstract
A common data format as provided by the STEP/EXPRESS initiative is an important step toward interoperability in heterogeneous design and manufacturing environments. Ontologies further support integration by providing an explicit formalism of process and design knowledge, thereby enabling semantic integration and re-use of process-information. By formalizing the process-model in EXPRESS, we gain access to the domain knowledge in the STEP application protocols. We present an approach to process modeling using different models for abstract process knowledge and implementation details. The abstract process model supports re-use and is independent of the implementation. As a result, we translate the process model in combination with the implementation model to an executable workflow.
