Abstract
The block interface defines the access to the different information blocks inside the Digital Product Memory (DPM). It is applicable for a range of devices starting from passive data stores (Storage SemProM, e.g., RFID) up to intelligent devices with a dedicated processing unit (Smart SemProM, e.g., motes). This chapter gives an in-depth introduction to the requirements for such an interface and its implementation. The application of the interface is illustrated by an example.
