How and when will AI deliver productivity and open new markets?

Since the rise of the industrial revolutions, there has always been a very active debate among the academic community confronting “technology innovation optimist” and “technology innovation pessimist”. Likewise, there is debate whether artificial intelligence (AI), like many previous technologies could have a positive or a negative impact on the economy,

Dati connessi + data analytics: la cross fertilization 4.0

Quando ero un bambino e mio padre comprava il giornale settimanale di enigmistica, lo aprivo subito a pagina 8, dove sapevo che avrei trovato un gioco che avrebbe stimolato, seppur brevemente, la mia curiosità e immaginazione: la Pista Cifrata, o “unite i punti”. Prima di iniziare a unire i punti

Why Industry 4.0 needs the analytics platform approach

Industry 4.0 has become a watchword for manufacturers, but I’m not sure the implications are clear to many. Hyperconnected customers are the fundamental premise of Industry 4.0 and they expect more than good quality. They expect their manufacturers to also behave like retailers and service providers. Real-time and predictive engagement

Industry 4.0 - Boosting productivity with digital twin analytics

This article focusses on time-variant manufacturing processes, and how analytics can help boost their productivity. Many production lines relying on such processes are involuntarily operated using a suboptimal combination of input control settings most of the time. This weakens overall returns at facilities such as steel mills, mines, chemical and

The factory of the future is not a low-cost proof-of-concept — but proof-of concept is possible

Manufacturers are not like Steve Jobs. He famously didn’t worry about market research when developing the iPod, merely assuming — some would say arrogantly — that the product was so good that everyone would buy it. He was right, but few would have his confidence. Manufacturers, by contrast, tend to

Will heightened interest in AI accelerate IoT deployments?

“Anyone who wants to be 100% sure, will be 100% late.” I heard this sentence recently at the IoT Forum in Munich. It is a very good summary of the feeling that is emerging in the debate on Industry 4.0. The buzzword battles of the past 48 months seem to
