Full title and description

Industrial automation systems and integration — Parts library — Part 25: Logical resource: Logical model of supplier library with aggregate values and explicit content (ISO 13584-25:2004). This part of ISO 13584 defines EXPRESS-based resource constructs and an integrated information model for representing supplier libraries that include aggregate-structured property values and explicit instance content, to support exchange of part family definitions and representation categories.

Abstract

ISO 13584-25:2004 provides generic EXPRESS resource constructs for modelling aggregate data types and aggregate values, constructs for representing assembled parts with arbitrary numbers of constituents, and an integrated information model for supplier libraries that can represent properties with aggregate-structured values and explicitly enumerated instance sets. The model is intended to enable exchange of supplier library content and selected representation categories when used with view-exchange protocols. The standard also lists items outside its scope such as expression/variable representation and a specification of a software system to manage libraries.

Scope

This part of ISO 13584 defines: generic EXPRESS resource constructs for aggregate data types and their values; constructs for representing assembled parts composed of any number of constituents; and an integrated information model that allows modelling and exchanging supplier libraries containing properties with aggregate-structured values and explicitly described permitted instances. It does not specify expression/variable representation techniques, implicit instance-set descriptions via constraints, or prescribe a software system to manage such libraries.

Key topics and requirements

• EXPRESS-based resource constructs for aggregate data types (as defined by ISO 10303‑11).
• Modelling of aggregate values (arrays, lists, sets) within parts library properties.
• Representation constructs for assembled parts with unlimited constituent components.
• Integrated information model for supplier libraries that supports explicit instance content and aggregation.
• Support for exchange of representation categories and selected library views when used with view-exchange protocols.
• Clear out-of-scope statements (expressions/variables, implicit instance enumeration, software system specification).

Typical use and users

ISO 13584-25 is used by parts-library authors, component suppliers, PLM and ERP integrators, CAD/CAM/CAE tool vendors, systems integrators, and standards professionals who need a formal, exchangeable logical model for supplier libraries that include aggregate-structured property values or explicit instance sets. It is applied when exchanging part-family definitions, property sets with aggregate content, and representation categories across engineering and procurement systems.

Related standards

ISO 13584-25 is one part of the ISO 13584 (PLIB) series. Closely related parts include ISO 13584-1 (overview and principles), ISO 13584-20 (logical model of expressions), ISO 13584-24 (logical model of a supplier library), ISO 13584-26 (information supplier identification), and the implementation-resource parts such as ISO 13584-31 and ISO 13584-32 (OntoML). These parts together define complementary logical and implementation resources for parts libraries and data exchange.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO 13584-25:2004 is the PLIB (parts library) logical-resource standard that defines a logical model for supplier libraries containing aggregate-structured values and explicit instance content, using EXPRESS constructs for data definition and exchange.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers EXPRESS resource constructs for aggregate data types and values, representation of assembled parts with constituent components, and an integrated information model to model and exchange supplier libraries with aggregate properties and explicit instance sets. It explicitly excludes expression/variable representation, implicit instance-set specification by constraints, and a software system specification for library management.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Component and supplier library authors, PLM/ERP/CAD vendors, systems integrators, data modelers, and procurement or engineering teams who require standardized, exchangeable representations of parts, properties and aggregated values.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: ISO 13584-25 was published in June 2004 (Edition 1). According to ISO metadata the publication was systematically reviewed and confirmed (latest confirmation noted in ISO records), so the 2004 edition remains the current published version unless and until ISO issues a revision or withdrawal.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes. ISO 13584-25 is one part of the ISO 13584 PLIB series (Parts library), which includes multiple related parts addressing logical resources, information supplier identification and implementation resources such as OntoML.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: PLIB, ISO 13584, parts library, supplier library, EXPRESS, aggregate data, aggregate values, assembled parts, information model, data exchange.
