D5.2 DESIGN PRINCIPLES FOR COMMUNICATION INFRASTRUCTURE

The present document constitutes the deliverable D5.2: “Preparation of design principles for the communication infrastructure”.
The main objective of T5.2 was to prepare general design principles for the communication infrastructure, based on the identified UC requirements and incorporating relevant industry standards. The methodology for the preparation of the design principles considered the outcome of the final deliverables from WP2-WP4, their alignment with relevant experience in industrial communication design and with the standards governing the industrial communication security as well as process of periodic validation in relation to all three use cases.
Resulting design principles will help partners implementing tasks within WP2-WP4 to align existing UC specific enabling technologies with industrial communication best practices, concepts and capabilities. The design principles consider the communication infrastructure specifics of final requirements of the solutions developed within WP2-WP4 and planned for implementation within WP7-WP9 and its contents are complemented by D5.3: “Preparation of design principles for the data infrastructure”.
