Deployed Hardware System | Abstract An Deployed Hardware System is a man made tangible artifact which exposes Physical Resource Capability(ies) and can produce Physical Outcome Events. An Deployed Hardware System can embed Computing Systems. Together with its embedded Computing Systems, an Deployed Hardware System can also deliver Information Outcomes. An Deployed Hardware System may be based on a set of Hardware Technology(ies). Examples: - The Connected Drone number 234 with Online Payment App. - The 3D printer in Paris Fablab. - Robert's automated guided vehicles (AGVs) - The Production equipment of the assembly line in the factory of Shenzhen. |

Concrete Hardware System | Abstract A Concrete Hardware System is a man made tangible artifact which exposes Hardware Capability(ies) and can produce and react to Physical Outcome Events. A Concrete Hardware System performs System Processes and participates to System Processes or to Business Processes. A Concrete Hardware System can embed Computing Systems. Together with its embedded Computing Systems, a Concrete Hardware System can also produce and react to Information Outcome Events. A Concrete Hardware System may be based on a set of Hardware Technology(ies). Examples: - Connected Drone with Online Payment App. - 3D printer. - Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) - Connected fridge providing an ordering Functionality and of course a freezing Hardware Capability. - Production equipment in an assembly line (metal forging machine) - Car |
