  text: <jats:p>Prescriptive analytics plays an important role in decision making
    in smart factories by utilizing the available data to gain actionable insights.
    The planning, integration and development of such use cases still poses manifold
    challenges. Use cases are still being implemented as standalone versions; the
    existing IT-infrastructure is not fit for integrative bidirectional decision communication,
    and implementations only reach low technical readiness levels. We propose a reference
    architecture for the integration of prescriptive analytics use cases in smart
    factories. The method for the empirically grounded development of reference architectures
    by Galster and Avgeriou serves as a blueprint. Through the development and validation
    of a specific IoT-Factory use case, we demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed
    reference architecture. We expand the given reference architecture for one use
    case to the integration of a smart factory and its application to multiple use
    cases. Moreover, we identify the interdependency among multiple use cases within
    dynamic environments. Our prescriptive reference architecture provides a structured
    way to improve operational efficiency and optimize resource allocation.</jats:p>
