1. A production support system for generating a plant bill of process (PBoP) from a product bill of process (PdBoP) for a production plant, the production support system comprising:
(a) a reasoning component for determining possible cells, wherein each cell is either a production entity or a combination of at least two production entities;
(b) a selection component for selecting cells determined by the reasoning component that address operation capabilities used in the PdBoP;
(c) an operation capabilities identifying component for identifying, by inference, additional operation capabilities for the cells selected by the selection component which comprise at least two production entities based on the operation capabilities of the individual production entities;
(d) a PBoP generating component for generating the PBoP from the PdBoP using the additional operation capabilities identified by the operations identifying component; and
(e) an executing component for controlling the production entities of the production plant based on the PBoP generated by the generating component.
