AIOTI WG Manufacturing organised a webinar on 25 November to present the survey results on the opportunities and challenges of the Cloud-Edge-IoT (CEI) Continuum for the manufacturing industry.
The survey aimed to explore the opportunities and challenges the Cloud-Edge-IoT (CEI) Continuum brings to the manufacturing industry. With the growing adoption of advanced technologies in manufacturing, there is a clear shift towards enhancing efficiency, sustainability, and human-centric processes. We have identified two main industrial scenarios where the adoption of CEI technologies is expected to benefit the manufacturing industry:
- A current Industry 4.0 scenario articulated in Smart Factory Automation, Smart Product Lifecycle and Smart Supply Chain reference processes and
- A more advanced Industry 5.0 scenario focussing on Human Centricity, Resilience and Sustainability (Circular) reference processes
For both scenarios, an online survey was prepared and this interactive webinar was where Smart Manufacturing stakeholders could express their opinions about opportunities and challenges for CEI technologies adoption in Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0 scenarios.
