# Smart Factory Web--A Blueprint Architecture for Open Marketplaces for Industrial Production
## 6 Evaluation  
The following two tables describe if, and if yes, to which degree the SFW architecture and platform fulfills the non-functional (Table 7) and functional (Table 8) requirements as claimed for an open marketplace in the platform economy in Section 2.
