Abstract Software-Defined Manufacturing (SDM) is a new paradigm for how to manufacture in the Industry 4.0 factory of future. The approach requires fundamental change thinking and reinvention central business models production technology. This paper discusses main challenges on way software-defined future illustrates possible solutions. An exemplary presented, which validation solutions carried...

Idea: • Transform each original program into a public program and a private program. • Public program: execute on the public cloud; perform most execution except for evaluating predicates of branch statements. • Private program: execute on private cloud; evaluate predicates. Proposed Techniques: • Replace predicates of the branch statements in the original program with control flow query (CFQ) ...

Customer Relationship Management is crucial influencing factor for competitiveness in saturated markets. Public cloud-computing services for customerrelationship management provide many benefits. However, their usage in Europe is reluctant. Our research identifies several core and sub-influence factors and reveals how strong they are. Enterprises strive for covering risks in terms of safety and...

In the manufacturing industry, there are claims about a novel system or paradigm to overcome current data interpretation challenges. Anecdotally, these studies have not been completely practical in real-world applications (e.g., analytics). This article focuses on smart (SM), proposed address inconsistencies within that often caused by reasons such as: (i) realization using general algorithm, (...

Material and methods Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing in bracing is based on the introduction of appropriate data to the computer using anthropometry. The best data can be delivered by precise 3D surface topography supplemented with Xray and other necessary radiographic modalities. The surface topography scanning used for this study is based on structured light projection. Scanning the s...

AppScale is a scalable, distributed, and fault tolerant cloud runtime system that we have developed at the University of California, Santa Barbara as part of our research into the next generation of programming systems [5, 3]. In particular, AppScale is a cloud platform, i.e. a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) cloud fabric, that executes over cluster resources. The cluster resources underlying AppS...
