Our article addresses the need of industrial production management systems in the course of enhanced digitization. The aim is to examine the extent to which traditional systems for controlling and optimizing production systems have been supplemented by Industry 4.0 concepts. In the course of the scarcity of resources and the shortage of labor, the human factor is once again coming to the fore. Against this background, the interaction between users / humans and artificial intelligence applications will be the main focus. The result should give an indicator how this connection must be considered in the future and what should artificial intelligence do in the context of production control. The findings will be the basis for future considerations of a smart production management system, which can be used for decision support as well as for auto-control.}, language = {en} } @misc{SchmidWinkler, author = {Schmid, Stefan and Winkler, Herwig}, title = {Empirical Findings on the Current State of Industrial Production Management Systems in the Context of Increasing Digitalization}, series = {Industrial Engineering and Applications - Europe : 11th International Conference, ICIEA-EU 2024, Nice, France, January 10-12, 2024}, journal = {Industrial Engineering and Applications - Europe : 11th International Conference, ICIEA-EU 2024, Nice, France, January 10-12, 2024}, publisher = {Springer Nature Switzerland}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {9783031581120}, issn = {1865-1348}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-031-58113-7_3}, pages = {23 -- 34}, abstract = {Increasing digitization and automation are currently bringing a revolution to many processes and sectors of the economy. The industry of production in particular is undergoing a fundamental transformation through the implementation of digital and networked system elements. In production control, traditionally based on established methods and experience, advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence are opening up entirely new options. Artificial intelligence's ability to analyze large amounts of data in real time and make instant decisions from it brings fresh perspectives to production control. Until now, there have been only a few surveys that examine the current status as well as future requirements for production control. Our research focuses on the current state of IT systems used to support decision-makers in production control. It also sheds light on the requirements needed to improve these systems, especially in light of advancing technological developments and increasing digitalization.

The study focuses on three areas: supply chain transformations, software challenges, and the adoption of emerging technologies. Supply chain transformations are influenced by increasing supply chain complexity, the growing prevalence of e-commerce, and the increased importance allocated by customers to trust and transparency. Complexity is, in part, due to disruptions caused by policy responses to the pandemic and to software challenges in terms of the adaptability of ERP systems and the cybersecurity of cloud-based solutions. This study is relevant for practitioners, as it sheds light on pressing issues in supply chain management, and for researchers as it uncovers potential topics that require further research in the future.}, language = {en} } @incollection{SchmidWinkler, author = {Schmid, Stefan and Winkler, Herwig}, title = {{\"U}berlegungen zur Konzeption eines smarten Produktionsleitsystems}, series = {Handbuch Industrie 4.0 und Digitale Transformation}, booktitle = {Handbuch Industrie 4.0 und Digitale Transformation}, publisher = {Springer Gabler}, address = {Wiesbaden}, isbn = {978-3-658-36874-6}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-658-36874-6_17-1}, pages = {23}, language = {de} } @misc{SinghHayatWinkler, author = {Singh, Amita and Hayat, Mubashir and Winkler, Herwig}, title = {Deriving principles from participatory modelling to augment circularity and sustainability in EV battery lifecycle}, series = {Procedia CIRP}, journal = {Procedia CIRP}, number = {130}, issn = {2212-8271}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1016/j.procir.2024.10.120}, pages = {498 -- 503}, abstract = {Very often circularity and sustainability go hand-in-hand. This paper is focused on understanding the key criteria of how circularity and hence sustainability can be increased in the field of electric vehicle (EV) batteries. Literature shows that only 2-5\% of Lithium Ion Batteries (LIB) are recycled resulting in a huge number of not properly disposed batteries. This is harmful not only to the environment but also has adverse effects on the population of the area where the minerals are mined disturbing the triple bottom line of sustainability. Through this paper, we propose a holistic approach to tackle the problem by not only using technology but also including systematic input from different stakeholders through the lifecycle. We, thus, combine principles from participatory modelling and blockchain technology to bring transparency and accountability in the process. This approach is a step-by-step guideline for including circularity and sustainability through a continuous process of input collection from real life and validation in the real world thereby resulting in a practical and technologically adept solution yielding better results when compared to a solution developed in an isolated laboratory environment. In this paper, we discuss the guidelines for the process together with input data collection, method, process validation, and resulting document in each step.}, language = {en} }
