  Title of speach:  Standardized Device and Update Management based on Asset Administration Shell and OPC UA
  The presentation will focus on a specific use case to exemplify the function of Asset Administration Shell (AAS) as the framework for Digital Twins (IEC 63278). An AAS sub-model for product change notifications based on SmartPCN (VDMA 24903) is explained.
  With this sub-model in combination with OPC 10000-100 (OPC UA Part 100: Devices) which defines a standardized software update model multiple vendors can provide their device and update information in a standardized way allowing for vendor independent device and update management.
