Local dependency metadata can be collected from local metadata repositories of a plurality of development systems in a layered development system landscape, and a global where-used list that includes intra-layer and inter-layer dependencies between development entities in a layered development system landscape can be created, for example by aggregating the collected local dependency data. A usage metric quantifying how frequently each development entity is depended upon by other development entities in the layered development system landscape can be assigned to each development entity in the layered development system landscape. A measure of a relative effect of a change to one of the development entities on other development entities in the layered development system landscape can be promoted.

Impact analysis and adoption planning based on global where-used lists

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for implementing a software architecture design for a software application implementing a make to stock process. The application is structured as multiple process components interacting with each other through service interfaces, and multiple service interface operations, each being implemented for a respective process component. The process components include an Accounting process component; a Production process component; a Site Logistics process component; a Confirmation and Inventory process component; a Customer Requirement Processing process component; a Demand Forecast Processing process component; a Supply and Demand Matching process component; a Production Trigger and Response process component; an In-house Requirement Processing process component; a Sales Scheduling Agreement Processing process component; and a Demand Planning process component.

Architectural design for make to stock application software

Data processing methods and systems are disclosed for use in industrial control. The methods and systems may include receiving control data from automation components of an industrial control system by a first computer system, the first computer system being coupled to the automation components by means of a first network, storing at least some of the control data in a first database by the first computer system, performing a database query of the first database for determination of a subset of the control data, aggregating the control data of the subset, and transmitting the aggregated control data to a second computer system over a second network.
