Thereby the importance to support the modeling process is stated and the motivation for the development of such a method is pointed out. This is followed by the analysis of the state of the art concepts for developing a method to model complex systems. The approach to model a system with less experience and effort and the process of multi-scale modeling of a production system are firstly introduced. It concludes with the selection of suitable enabling technologies and a roadmap.enfactory planningproduction systemFabrikplanungProduktionssystemModellierungFertigungssystem670conference paper
