  4. Abstract:
  5. The cloud manufacturing paradigm has been known as one of the best solutions for today's competitive manufacturing environments. This paradigm insists on using a manufacturing service oriented approach for fulfilling the manufacturing enterprise resource management by the access to global availability of manufacturing services. The proposed service oriented approach covers a wide area of manufacturing resource management from infrastructures to platforms and applications. However, due to wide global distributions of manufacturing clouds, the service oriented architectures which are designed in the clouds cannot communicate with each other. This is mainly due to concentration of cloud manufacturing paradigm to the application of the detailed manufacturing resource acquisitions through a services oriented approach. To solve this problem a wide area of researches have been established which can be named as the interoperability of manufacturing clouds. In this paper, a novel solution for enabling the interoperability among the manufacturing clouds has been proposed. This solution applies the service oriented approach of the cloud manufacturing to enable the interoperability services. These services are proposed by Information Technology related service provider companies. These firms can provide the different manufacturing clouds with the interoperability services. These services are acquired by the manufacturing cloud members to communicate with other cloud members. The proposed solution enables two important mechanisms. The first mechanism uses service integration functions for enabling an integrated service data model and the second mechanism uses service mapping functions. Finally, the paper has elaborated the architecture of the platform and outlined future works. © 2017 The Authors. Published by Elsevier
