This proposed research is concerned with the development of a Semantic Web representation of supply chains deploying and manufacturing semiconductors. The so-called digital twin is a prototype for virtualizing the electronic component supplier (ECS) value chain, aiming for a holistic digitalization across the entire product life cycle. With its unique advantages, Semantic Web will contribute to overcoming current Big Data issues and to getting one step closer to smart factories. This includes enhanced smart collaboration between both business and project partners. Furthermore, it is shown in first business use cases how the developed ontology is supporting selected applications to manage data more efficiently and to build a comprehensive knowledge representation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
