5. Looking ahead to challenges and
opportunities [I]
• The rapidly changing world of computing and
communications
• A global Internet
• Internet users, broadband Internet, super computing
• A more connected world
• Mobile phones, mobile Internet, Internet of Things
• Towards an innovative China
• Dominant maker of computers and consumer electronics;
readily able to adapt and improve on technology
innovations made elsewhere; but innovation limited by
government controls and the relative lack of IP protection
• FInES has a long track record in cooperating with China
(INTEROP-VLab)
• Raw materials for innovation
• Concentration of science and engineering talent
• Venture capital (China 2nd
largest VC market in the world) ••• 5
6. Looking ahead to challenges and
opportunities [II]
• “Big data” era:
• How to meet growing data storage, analysis and
management demands (e.g. parallel file systems)?
• How to utilise enterprise-wide, scalable, fully web-
enabled distributed processing systems across a wide
variety of industries and applications?
• How to automate the understanding of large complex
data by eliminating the requirement for
taxonomy/ontology and combining a number of formerly
point solutions into an integrated entity-oriented
analytics solution?
• More data about the data metadata
• Levelling and commoditisation of knowledge as a shared,
common resource a new wave of intellectual value
creation
• Social nature of the Web instant global consensus on
major issues with little time for filtering, comparison,
critical analysis ••• 6
7. Looking ahead to challenges and
opportunities [III]
• After silicon
• Self assembling circuits from carbon nanotubes
• Towards a programmable universe
• Sensors can send out streams of data about their surroundings,
anonymously transmitted to remote data centres (“clouds”)
• … but who are the EU Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Yahoo and Apple?
• Convergence of biology and computer science
• Designing chips that have structural resemblance to the brain
• Deconstructing the interface (Macintosh, Windows)
• By 2070, our brain connected to the Internet?
• From GIZMOS to SPIMES to BIOTS (B. Sterling)
• “Halo of data”: personalised descriptions of what and who is around
you are available at the push of a button on your smartphone
• The whole brain can be synchronised to the cloud (2100?) – humans
can restore and backup their memories to the system; the system can
restore memories into a new body
• Collective learning (2200?) – only new knowledge needs to be
created, learning becomes obsolete; all known knowledge is contained
on a supercomputer (on a chip?); all known knowledge pertaining to
any subject can be downloaded directly to the brain
••• 7
8. Towards the Sensing Enterprise?
• 2009: FInES began to explore Science Based Interoperability;
2011: FInES explores the new concept of “Sensing Enterprise”.
• Sensing Enterprise: an enterprise anticipating future decisions
by using multi-dimensional information captured through
physical and virtual objects and providing added value
information to enhance its global context awareness.
• WYSIWYG Enterprise: “With massive quantities of real-time
information becoming pushed rather than pulled on a global
scale future enterprises will be (a) context aware, (b)
dynamically configurable, and (c) multi-identity oriented virtual
entities that manifest themselves in many different ways and
re-invent themselves over and over again.”
• Sensing Factory: smart, adaptive, autonomous, and ambient
machines.

Background information:
The concept was launched in the FInES Position paper (see reference in the slide in the slide) and was recently debated in the IoT conference at the Future Internet Assambley in Poznan (C. Martinez, Man-Sze Li – FInES Cluster; Rikardo Bueno, EFFRA – European Factories of the Future Research Association).
Research going towards the sensing enterprise is one of the recomandations made in the conclusion of the Position paper.

*Related to manufacturing:
-without going as far as the sensign enterprise, the EFFRA Research Roadmap currently under consultation states that :
« Economical sustainability relies on an optimal implementation of the whole range of technologies and enablers, in particular involving ICT and robotics-mechatronics technologies, including the embedding of sensors connected to ERP, MES and predictive maintenance systems, enabling on line, real time, full production quality control. » (p.9)
Also, on IoT:
« Connectivity is inherent to the development of the future work place. We envision manufacturing processes to seamlesly and by-directionally interact with real-world objects and environments on the global scale, accross a variety of application domains and stakeholders thus realizing the Intrenet of Things. Workers’ direct interaction with physical systems will enable processes that are real-world aware, event-based, and significantly more adaptive than today’s processes, which will result in increased visibility, responsiveness, and safety in the workplace of the future.
Last, ICT research in manufacturing intelligence will assimilate the huge amount of data originating as a result of increased collaboration and connectivity and render meaningful information on-the-fly on mobile devices for managers and shop floor supervisors> Progress beyond the state-of-the art in event processing, in-memory computing and visualization should be made for real-time data analysis of different what-if scenarios originating in workplaces of the future. » (p.12)

Summary of ICT enabled intelligent manufacturing – see chapter 3.2 in Factories of the Future PPP: Strategic Multi-annual Roadmap ( doc 3 in the file)
ICT is an enabler for intelligent manufacturing, reinforcing sustainability and high performance in the entire supply chain
In the Strategic multi-annual Roadmap, three types of factories are identified:
Digital factories (manufacturing design and product life cycle management)
Smart factories (agile manufacturing, customisation, where sensors and IoT play a massive role)
Virtual factories (value creation, global networked manufacturing and logistics; Internet of Services is the important enabler)
Cf. Rikardo Bueno: a timeline can be established in the maturing of a manufacturing product – first, the engineering level, then connecting to suppliers, logistics etc; and finally, the full production, where adaptation to new condition becomes necessary through self-adapting, self-repairing components. This is the level of the sensing factory.

The concept was launched in the FInES Position paper (see reference in the slide in the slide) and was recently debated in the IoT conference at the Future Internet Assambley in Poznan (C. Martinez, Man-Sze Li – FInES Cluster; Rikardo Bueno, EFFRA – European Factories of the Future Research Association).
