Claim 0:
1. A method for deployment of an industrial application on an edge computing device, ECD, connected to a controller of a machine tool, MT,
the method comprising the steps of:
(a) providing a generic machine tool model, GMTM, of machine tool components;
(b) transforming a machine tool data report, MTDR, extracted by the edge computing device, ECD, from the controller of the machine tool, MT, into a machine instance model, MIM, of the machine tool, MT, instantiating the generic machine tool model, GMTM;
(c) converting generic data requirements, gR, of a generic industrial application into machine tool specific requirements, mtsR, using the machine instance model, MIM, of the machine tool, MT;
(d) providing an instantiated industrial application for the machine tool, MT, by instantiating the generic industrial application by extending its configuration data with the machine tool specific requirements, mtsR; and
(e) deploying the instantiated industrial application on the edge computing device, ECD, of the machine tool, MT.
