Description


The digital transformation of industrial systems is a complex process that requires a detailed understanding of specific needs and available technological solutions. Striking the right balance between the features to be integrated, the performance goals and the methodologies employed is a key factor in achieving a smooth transition to a digitalized industry.

Digital Transformation of Industrial Processes draws on more than ten years of research in digital industrial sciences conducted at the Arts et Métiers, one of the prestigious French engineering schools. This expertise has been further strengthened by the Plateforme 4.0, designed and deployed to experiment with innovative technologies and foundational methods in collaboration with industrial partners. The full-scale experiments conducted have highlighted the multiscale and multidimensional complexity associated with technological interdependence, while revealing certain limitations and precautions that must be taken into account.

This book is intended for both engineers engaged in the digital transformation of industrial systems and master’s-level students wishing to train in the technologies and methodologies of the industry of the future.
