Nowadays, firms cannot survive in the highly competitive global economy without innovation. Attempts are made to incorporate innovations by embracing new technologies and applying changes. Interdisciplinary collaboration is an essential key for successful innovation and development of cyber-physical production systems (CPPS) in Industry 4.0. Various enabling technologies and approaches such as model-driven engineering, business process model and notation (BPMN), blockchain, human-machine interfaces and digital twin will be presented in this tutorial through illustrative case studies. The identified development potentials of these technologies and approaches form the basis for new business opportunities. Additionally, an inherent consequence of innovation in CPPS is emerging inconsistencies among the system specifications and components. In an interdisciplinary environment where every discipline develops a part of a system separately, identifying inconsistencies becomes even more challenging. Therefore, we need a systematic approach that includes a framework, methods and tools, to support modeling and manage inconsistencies efficiently. In this tutorial, participants will delve into the emerging technologies, especially in the area of modeling and inconsistency management, and be able to grasp the overall framework within two hours. In addition to basic theories and methods, concrete examples and application guidelines will be supplemented with case studies. Following presentations, various topics will be discussed during the interactive tutorial: • Model-based development and optimization for cyber-physical production systems • Integration of sociotechnical and organizational aspects into model-based development using Business Process Model and Notation • Model-driven development of digital twin • Blockchain technology in production • Managing inconsistencies across interdisciplinary views and in an industrial software toolchain      «
