30-day Public Review for Production Planning and Scheduling V1.0

The OASIS Production Planning and Scheduling (PPS) TC [1] members have  
recently approved a Committee Specification Draft (CSD) and submitted this  
specification for 30-day public review:

   Production Planning and Scheduling (PPS) Version 1.0

    Committee Specification Draft 01 / Public Review Draft 01

    02 June 2011

Specification Overview:

This specification entitled "Production Planning and Scheduling  (PPS)  
Version 1.0" contains 1) core elements for specification of planning and  
scheduling problems, 2) description rules of transaction messages for XML  
document exchange, and 3) profile representation schema for definitions of  
semantic information among different application systems.

The purpose of the OASIS Production Planning and Scheduling TC is to  
develop common object models and representation / exchange rules as well as  
corresponding XML schemas for production planning and scheduling software,  
which can communicate with each other in order to establish collaborative  
planning and scheduling on manufacturing industries. 

Public Review Period:

The public review starts tomorrow, 1 August 2011 and ends 31 August 2011.

This is an open invitation to comment. OASIS solicits feedback from  
potential users, developers and others, whether OASIS members or not, for the  
sake of improving the interoperability and quality of its technical work.
