Die Digitale Fabrik wird unter anderem zur Bewältigung von Herausforderungen der Automobilindustrie sowie als Grundlage zukünftiger Themenschwerpunkte – wie Industrie 4.0 – immer relevanter. Aktuell besteht kaum eine Möglichkeit, die Qualität dieser digitalen Hilfsmittel objektiv zu bewerten. Der Fachbeitrag stellt eine Methodik vor, mit deren Hilfe Optimierungspotential identifiziert und die Auswirkungen bei Änderungen bezüglich der Digitalen Fabrik abgeschätzt werden können.   To meet the challenges within automotive industry and provide a basis for future topics, such as the fourth industrial revolution, the digital factory is getting more relevant. At the moment, however, the quality of these digital means cannot be objectively assessed. Therefore, the following paper introduces a novel approach not only for identifying potential for optimization but also for estimating the impacts when modifying the elements of the digital factory.

Teacher is always a key factor which determines training quality in general and vocational training quality of the Vocational Education System (VES) in particular. In face of strong influences from the fourth industrial revolution (IR 4.0), teacher is getting more important in training of human resources, especially qualification level and capacity to apply technology and innovate teaching methods. Based on the analysis for impacts of the IR 4.0 on VES, requirements for capacity of teachers and the reality on vocational education teachers (VETs) today, this article suggests some solutions to develop VETs to adapt to the IR 4.0 as a basis for development of teachers at vocational education institutions in Vietnam.

Education is facing various challenges at the moment and needs to be reinvented. Some of the methods used have been inspired by the industrial revolution when an assembly line one-size-fits-all approach was setup in schools. Today, teachers are struggling to manage the number of students in a class thus making the quality of teaching inconsistent. Furthermore, they have to deal with students having different abilities in the same class which makes it impossible to give each and every student the individual attention they deserve. Through the artificial intelligence assisted learning (AIAL) system, the authors believe that they can personalise the learning and thus free a lot of time for the teacher which can be used to focus on those students that are really in need. This will be done on a case by case basis, thus creating a fairer educational system which is personalized for the needs of each and every student which guarantees equity.

Malaysia intends to ride on the crest of the coming i.4.0 wave. According to the 2016 GE Global Innovation Barometer study, a significant number of Malaysian executives felt positive about embracing i4.0 vis-a-vis their global peers. On the surface, Malaysia appears ready for its own i4.0 revolution. According to the WEF's Networked Readiness Index on digital readiness, Malaysia was ranked 6th in terms of having the most tech-savvy government in the world. The automotive sector is ideally suited to kickstart the i4.0 revolution as it was traditionally regarded as the “industry of industries” – particularly due to its traditional role in spearheading wider, cross-sectoral industrialisation. However, Malaysia is not yet ready to embrace the 4th Industrial Revolution. This chapter discusses the obstacles, challenges, and opportunities facing i4.0 uptake in the Malaysian automotive industry. It ends by recommending a unique pathway for i4.0 adoption in the sector.

AbstractWith the rapid success of the digital enterprises in the 21st Century, industrial manufacturing is expected to be approaching the fourth industrial revolution, coined Industry 4.0 (I4.0). The instrumental technology that will drive this evolution is the integration of the physical and digital factory into one cyber physical system. There is consensus among academics and industry alike that there will be an integral paradigm shift in how offerings will be developed and manufactured. While there is much confidence that the future factory will have unprecedented capabilities to satisfy complex customer demands, there is little agreement on how individual organisations can utilise these trends. This paper presents a literature review identifying reoccurring themes and trends of I4.0 and their expected effect on future manufacturing. Central characteristics, challenges and opportunities are identified and discussed. The findings can provide support in developing actionable strategies for industry to direct I4.0 endeavours.

Since 1997, the mining industry has paid attention to develop information-technology (IT) components at sectoral and enterprise levels. However, due to various reasons, including the interest of business and sector leaders as well as limited resources, IT in the mining industry is still on a small scale, in which it has not yet linked to a network and had a shared database, and is therefore not shared. Under the impact of Industry Revolution 4.0, to develop the IT field as an essential tool to promote the technologies of the 4.0 technology component, a systematic policy combination is needed. This article is responsible for meeting that demand of the IT field of Vietnam's mining industry. Keywords Industry 4.0, IT, IT policy. References [1] K.

Construction is an important industry to determine the development of a country. However, this industry faced delay issues caused by various factors that affect proper construction project. Hence, minimizing delay in construction should be focused on overcoming the delay issue. Thus, the objective of this study is to critically review the main criteria of minimizing delay based on the most significant items that suggested in the previous journals. This paper reviewed 47 journals that studied the issues of delays in construction projects. Through this study, the authors have classified four main criteria for minimizing delays, which are; management, interpersonal, technical and technology. Management ensures the proper manage of time, financial and control system in construction to minimize delay. While, interpersonal promote a good relationship between construction parties, hire of competent and skilled labour and responsibility of the owner to avoiding delay. Besides, technical ensure the quality of project and technology could improve the productivity of construction based on fourth industrial revolution development in the construction field. Thus, this study contributes to construction parties able to focus on elements to overcome the delay issue in they faced and applied the ideas based on the element to minimize delay in the construction project.

The Fourth Industrial Revolution, finally, will change not only what we do but also who we are. It will affect our identity and all the issues associated with it: our sense of privacy, our notions of ownership, our consumption patterns, the time we devote to work and leisure, and how we developour careers, cultivate our skills, meet people, and nurture relationships. The technological revolution in the modern developing environment in which innovative technologies and trends such as the virtual reality (VR), Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Robotics are fundamentally altering the way of living, working and relationships to one another, is known as Fourth Industrial Revolution or Industry 4.0 or Industrie 4.0. The Fourth Industrial Revolution is reshaping every sphere of human life — from government to commerce; from education to healthcare. It is even impacting humanvalues, opportunities, relationships and identities by modifying virtual as well as physical worlds of human beings.

Thailand 4.0 is a new ‘buzzword’ for many things just now being defined. It also appears to mean many things to many people, but the majority of Thai citizens surveyed fail to grasp just what it is. In the simplest of terms, it seems to be a Thai government policy in which technology and innovation are proposed tools for boosting the quality of life. Thailand 4.0 is also targeted at 10 key economic sectors and their supporting research from US$1 billion in funding for 12,290 new PhDs. This research therefore investigated the legacy of proceeding Thailand 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0, the use of the S-curve to describe their implementations, educational objectives to support Thailand 4.0, the digital/e-commerce agenda, agribusiness and ‘smart farmers’, how to learn from unicorns, and what is meant by ‘next generation automotive’ under Thailand 4.0.
