“…Datta et al [81] highlighted an agent-based computational framework to determine the effects of demand variability and production capacity constraints. With consideration to supplier selection, Du and Jing [82] developed a collaborative filtering recommendation system for supplier matching in prefabricated construction domains while Hosseini et al [83] and Yildiz et al [84] created decision support models with simultaneous cost and resilience considerations.…”

In today's increasingly dynamic business landscape, industries are faced with global headwinds, intensified competition, and increased volatility driven by factors such as increased demand for tailored products and solutions as well as geopolitical, economic, and climate disruptions.To address these challenges and remain competitive, the product lifecycle management (PLM) paradigm, which allows companies to be in control of their products and services across the lifecycle, has gained attention from industries. This cross-functional approach, enabled by Industry 4.0 information and communication technology (ICT) enablers such as digital twins (DT) and knowledge graphs (KGs), can elevate existing capabilities for customizability and manufacturing resilience. This thesis explores the role of DT and KG in enhancing PLM capabilities, integrating multiple lifecycle phases with emphasis on product design, manufacturing, and supply chain management (SCM). The adoption of these transformative technologies has the potential to enhance existing mass customization strategies such as the product family (PF) approach and Smart Product-Service Systems (Smart PSS), paving the way for intelligent decision support systems. Applicable to a wide range of industries, the use of DT systems with KG as a computational driver can support stakeholders in improving operational efficiencies, and responsiveness for disruption management. The main contributions of the thesis can be categorized into five research areas highlighted below:1) Establishing an environment-based context-aware DT system to enhance PF design and optimization. To overcome the challenges of identifying optimal product configurations in the planning phase and overcoming user requirement changes in the usage phase, a context-aware Abstract 10 DT system incorporating real-world environment aspects is proposed to aid PF reconfiguration and redesign. A novel benchmark and interacting mechanism automatically identifies feasible PF modules, reducing the need for costly and bias-prone expert recommendations, as demonstrated by a case study on tower crane planning and deployment.2) Developing DT-as-a-Service to advance service-oriented digital manufacturing. Based on the flexibility and versatility of DT in manufacturing processes, these systems are pivotal towards customized production systems. A four-tier technology stack is proposed to construct DT systems using a modular approach and leverages advanced computational methodologies and tools such as extended reality (XR) to support a wider range of shop floor manufacturing processes. Here, DT systems are used as a fundamental to enable Smart PSS and circular economy paradigms to drive sustainability and customizability efforts. These multi-faceted capabilities are featured in two use cases, additive manufacturing, and gearbox assembly line. 3) Enabling causal inference for maintenance operations using cognitive digital twins (CDTs).The intricate nature of large production systems results in challenges pertaining to the root ca...
