Set of assets

In the inventory of assets, for example hardware and software, I will have many computers with the same configuration and software consequently many threats and vulnerabilities equal, in this case who should be the owner of these assets and the risk assessment table these assets should be repeated?

When you have a set of assets with the same features which are affected with the same threats/vulnerabilities, you can create a set of assets with them. This set will be an unique asset, so you can define the same asset owner. It is my recommendation, but keep in mind that the standard not establishes how you have to do it, so you can have in your list all repeated assets, but I think that it is not efficient.
