Process Specification Language

<p>
The Process Specification Language (PSL) is a set of <a href="/facts/Mathematical_logic/SaI7Y3wN">logic</a> terms used to describe <a href="/facts/Process_(philosophy)/5wDEIev2">processes</a>. The logic terms are <a href="/facts/Specification_language/vqNInfdh">specified</a> in an <a href="/facts/Ontology_(information_science)/SQlhl6lp">ontology</a> that provides a <a href="/facts/Formal_system/KaeDAjK7">formal description</a> of the components and their relationships that make up a process. The ontology was developed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (<a href="/facts/NIST/gr9Fnh85">NIST</a>), and has been approved as an international standard in the document <a href="/facts/International_Organization_for_Standardization/IacYR7Yg">ISO</a> 18629.
</p><p>The Process Specification Language can be used for the representation of <a href="/facts/Manufacturing_process/3qW7bcdy">manufacturing</a>, <a href="/facts/Systems_engineering_process/gFwRmkDp">engineering</a> and <a href="/facts/Business_process/fYH2eREc">business processes</a>, including production scheduling, process planning, <a href="/facts/Workflow_management/Ig8zvxF2">workflow management</a>, <a href="/facts/Business_process_reengineering/sJlxUDBI">business process reengineering</a>, simulation, process realization, process modelling, and <a href="/facts/Project_management/JgQVSU3o">project management</a>. In the manufacturing domain, PSL's objective is to serve as a common representation for integrating several process-related applications throughout the manufacturing process <a href="/facts/Product_lifecycle_management/G3U6gtBv">life cycle</a>.
