This short talk presents a 4-year research project that designs manufacturing information systems for smart factories using a design science research approach from an industrial engineering perspective. The Fourth industrial revolution has brought significant advancements to manufacturing operations management. However, the legacy systems in manufacturing industry are heterogeneous, inflexible, and monolithic, posing challenges to meet the reconfigurability needs of the modern world.

Walk-ins welcome, see here for full details – https://www.c2d3.cam.ac.uk/events/how-design-smart-factories-industry-40-enterprise-information-systems

Our speaker will discuss how computer science applications can address these challenges and support smart factory principles such as near real-time information visibility, virtual assistance, decentralized decision-making, and interconnection. The research is based on empirical findings from six large companies and three industrial demonstrators and highlights the importance of industrial standards and design principles. The talk will delve into the challenges faced by modern information systems in the Industrial Internet of Things, such as low interoperability, low customizability, and monolithic design, to develop solutions that enable Industry 4.0.
