  text: The digitization of the industry, the drive towards smart factories as well
    as the Internet of Production (IoP) require rising smartness of products and services.
    Smart physical products are often mechatronic products that include increasing
    amounts of software. The development of software, however, comes along with new
    challenges for companies specialized in developing mechanical, electrical or electronic
    products. Some of these challenges address the product lifecycle management (PLM)-related
    business and work processes. The management of software lifecycles requires a
    much more rigorous requirements management. Furthermore, special solutions for
    management of source code in distributed development teams are needed. The build-process
    and testing activities need to be conducted in a systematic manner. The generation
    and provision of different licensing models need to be mastered and finally the
    issue of security needs to be addressed for any product that can be networked---which
    by the way is a strategic target of nearly any product developing company. Application
    Lifecycle Management (ALM) covers many of the above-mentioned issues. IT solutions
    for ALM are comparable to traditional PLM solutions, but focus particularly on
    software as a product. Thus, these systems have become widely used by software
    companies in the same manner as PLM solutions belong to the standard enterprise
    IT environment of companies developing physical products. With software penetrating
    traditional physical products, product managers, product developers, manufacturing
    staff etc. need to work with both, PLM and ALM, since neither solution is able
    to cover both domains sufficiently. However, ALM and PLM solutions feature redundant
    functionality. Thus, best practices for the systematic integration of ALM and
    PLM are required.

  text: "The digitization of the industry requires smart products and services. Smart
    products are mechatronic products with an increasing amount of software. To get
    high quality smart products to the market quickly, manufacturers need to reshape
    their product lifecycle processes. They need to apply system engineering-based
    methods to enable smooth cross-domain developments with a special focus on the
    software domain. One significant challenge faced by manufacturers is the harmonization
    of product lifecycle management (PLM), which addresses the hardware lifecycle,
    with application lifecycle management (ALM), which addresses the software lifecycle.\r\n\r\nTo
    support manufacturers in this challenging activity, this paper demonstrates a
    proven process for developing use cases and requirements associated with a PLM/ALM
    integration. This process has been elicited during an industrial case study in
    a manufacturing company. This paper explains this process in detail. A generally
    applicable approach for developing the requirements of a PLM/ALM integration is
    extracted by removing the company-specific factors. "
