Smart manufacturing leverages big data analytics to optimize complex production processes and enhance supply chain management. [7] Big data analytics refers to a method for gathering and understanding large data sets in terms of what are known as the three V's, velocity, variety and volume.
The value created in Industry 4.0, can be relied upon electronic identification, in which the smart manufacturing require set technologies to be incorporated in the manufacturing process to thus be classified as in the development path of Industry 4.0 and no longer digitisation. [35]
Industrial big data refers to a large amount of diversified time series generated at a high speed by industrial equipment, [1] known as the Internet of things. [2] The term emerged in 2012 along with the concept of "Industry 4.0”, and refers to big data”, popular in information technology marketing, in that data created by industrial equipment might hold more potential business value.

The idea of "digital manufacturing" became prominent in the early 1970s, with the release of Dr. Joseph Harrington's book, Computer Integrated Manufacturing. [5] However, it was not until 1984 when computer-integrated manufacturing began to be developed and promoted by machine tool manufacturers and the Computer and Automated Systems Association and Society of Manufacturing Engineers (CASA/SME).
The new manufacturing economy integrates networks, 3D printers and other proficiencies into business strategies to further develop manufacturing practices. [ 2 ] Thomas Friedman references Lawrence F. Katz that hubs of "universities, high-tech manufacturers, software/service providers and highly nimble start-ups" [ 3 ] are a needed economic ...
Digital manufacturing is an integrated approach to manufacturing that is centered around a computer system. [ 1 ] [ citation needed ] The transition to digital manufacturing has become more popular with the rise in the quantity and quality of computer systems in manufacturing plants.
These smart sensors can monitor the refinery processes, and enhance safety. The demand for products can be forecasted more precisely and automatically be communicated to the refineries and production plants to adjust production levels.
MHRC's research involves expanding the integrated computer-aided manufacturing definition (IDEF) approach to include the information flow as well as the material flow needed to support a manufacturing enterprise, as well as models to handle unscheduled events such as machine breakdowns or material shortages. Past research resulted in software ...
