“…The aggregate index of information literacy is significantly affected by: the managers' interest in the new ICT trends; the financial education in the ICT field; the managers' financial motivation; and the cost savings from using available ICTs in enterprises. The verification of the variables in the model confirmed that the significant impact on raising the level of information literacy of the managers is financially valued, which is also considered important in the study Lăzăroiu (2015), the manager's interest in the area of information and communication technologies and trends in this field (White, 2008;Wermann et al, 2015;Majumdar, 2015;Schrum et al, 2015;El Kadiri et al, 2016) and the manager's attitude itself towards education and information and communication technologies (Shaw & Marlow, 1999;Ritchie & Brindley, 2005;Fulantelli & Allegra, 2003;Fu, 2013). Other variables did not have a statistically significant influence on the manager's literacy level.…”

“…There are several factors influencing the literacy level, the justification of which we have explored in this article (Table 1). Ruiz, & Jiménez-Zarco, 2007;Saarenketo, Puumalainen, Kyläheiko, & Kuivalainen, 2008;Antlová, 2009;Modimogale & Jan, 2011;Ongori & Migiro, 2010;Manochehr, Al-Esmail, & Ashrafi, 2012) Intensity of ICT use by managers in an enterprise (Corso, Martini, Paolucci, & Pellegrini, 2003;Acar, Kocak, Sey, & Arditi, 2005;Fuchs, Höpken, Föger, & Kunz, 2010;Ongori & Migiro, 2010) Reducing financial costs (De Silva & Ratnadiwakara, 2008;Kpodar & Andrianaivo, 2011;Sassi & Goaied, 2013;Kılıçaslan, Sickles, Atay Kayış, & Üçdoğruk Gürel, 2017) Improving business processes (Ongori & Migiro, 2010) Financial evaluation (Lăzăroiu, 2015) Increasing labour productivity (Ceccobelli, Gitto, & Mancuso, 2012;Cardona, Kretschmer, & Strobel, 2013;Spiezia, 2013;Kılıçaslan et al, 2017) Interest in ICT trends (White, 2008;Wermann, Kliesing, Colombo, & Moraes, 2015;Majumdar, 2015;Schrum et al, 2015;El Kadiri et al, 2016) Attitude towards ICT (Shaw & Marlow, 1999;Southern & Tilley, 2000;Ritchie & Brindley, 2005;Fulantelli & Allegra, 2003;Fu, 2013) From the literature and scientific researches, which are outlined in Tables 1 and 2, two important questions remain unanswered.

Problems that arise in this case are ensuring interoperability between heterogeneous components of factories, both local (within the same factory) and distributed (distributed production); the consolidation of information from a variety of heterogeneous sources in order to obtain a new value; and the adaptation of production to rapidly changing customer requirements and production capabilities.…”
