ISO 15745定义了一个应用程序集成框架——一组用于描述集成模型和应用程序互操作性概要文件的元素和规则。 ISO 15745-1:2003定义了描述集成模型和应用程序互操作性概要文件及其组件概要文件（流程概要文件、信息交换概要文件和资源概要文件）的通用元素和规则。 注:ISO 15745第2、3和4部分定义了基于特定现场总线技术描述通信网络配置文件和设备配置文件的通信相关方面的技术特定元素和规则；这些部分可与本部分结合使用，形成特定现场总线技术的应用集成框架。 本国际标准适用于工业自动化应用，如离散制造、过程自动化、电子组装、半导体制造和广泛应用- 区域物料处理。它也可能适用于其他自动化和控制应用，如公用事业自动化、农业、越野车辆、医疗和实验室自动化以及公共交通系统。

ISO 15745 defines an application integration framework - a set of elements and rules for describing integration models and application interoperability profiles. ISO 15745-1:2003 defines the generic elements and rules for describing integration models and application interoperability profiles, together with their component profiles - process profiles, information exchange profiles, and resource profiles. NOTE Parts 2, 3 and 4 of ISO 15745 define the technology specific elements and rules for describing both communication network profiles and the communication related aspects of device profiles based upon particular fieldbus technologies; these parts can be used in conjunction with this part to form an application integration framework for a specific fieldbus technology. This International Standard is applicable to industrial automation applications such as discrete manufacturing, process automation, electronics assembly, semiconductor fabrication, and wide-area material handling. It may also be applicable to other automation and control applications such as utility automation, agriculture, off-road vehicles, medical and laboratory automation, and public transport systems.
