IE 447 CIM Lecture Notes – Chapter 2: CIM Architecture - 17 CHAPTER 2: CIM ARCHITECTURE 2.1 CIM Architecture Overview To develop a comprehensive CIM strategy and solutions, an enterprise must begin with .solid foundations such as CIM architecture. A CIM architecture is an information systems structure that enables industrial enterprises integrate information and business  processes It accomplishes this first by establishing the direction integration will take; and second, by defining the interfaces between the users and the providers of this integration function. The chart (Figure 2.1) illustrates how a CIM architecture answers the enterprise’s integration needs. As you can see here, a CIM architecture provides a core of common services. These services support every other area of the enterprise—from its common support functions to its highly specialized business processes. 2.1.1 Three key building blocks The information environment of an industrial enterprise is subject to frequent changes in systems configuration and technologies. A CIM architecture can offer a flexible structure that enables it to react to these changes. This structure relies on a number of modular elements that allow systems to change more easily to grow along with enterprise needs. And as you can see from the chart on the facing page, the modular elements that give a CIM architecture its flexible structure are based on three key building blocks: Communications  —the communication and distribution of data.  Data management  —the definition, storage and use of data  Presentation  —the presentation of this data to people and devices throughout the enterprise
