Web-enabled and Tether-Free Augmented Modeling and Simulation Technologies for Next-Generation Product Design, Manufacturing, and Service

This paper addresses the innovation needs in using web-enabled and tether-free technologies to augment modeling and simulation for nextgeneration product design, manufacturing, and services. First, an introduction on fundamental needs on “5Ps (predictability, producibility, productivity, pollution prevention, and performance)” in modeling and simulation is given. In addition, perspectives in using e-manufacturing for next-generation materials processing and product manufacturing design are discussed. Finally, an effort in establishing a networked research centers in for next-generation product design, manufacturing, and service is discussed. An example on One-Day-Design Studio established at the Industrial Innovation Center of Shanghai Jiao Tong Univ is introduced.
