CloudiFacturing Project
Cloudification of Production Engineering for Predictive Digital Manufacturing
CloudiFacturing is European Innovation Action project under the Horizon 2020. The project started in October 2017 and will last 42 months.
The mission of CloudiFacturing is to optimize production processes and producibility using Cloud/HPC-based modelling and simulation, leveraging online factory data and advanced data analytics, thus contributing to the competitiveness and resource efficiency of manufacturing SMEs, ultimately fostering the vision of Factories 4.0 and the circular economy.
CloudiFacturing builds upon the predecessor EU FP7 projects CloudFlow and cloudSME. The mission of CloudiFacturing is to optimize production processes and producibility using Cloud/HPC-based modelling and simulation, leveraging online factory data and advanced data analytics, thus contributing to the competitiveness and resource efficiency of manufacturing SMEs, ultimately fostering the vision of Factories 4.0 and the circular economy. CloudiFacturing will integrate the technology platform of the two previous projects and will extend these to support data analytics, real-time features and advanced security features. Cloudbroker is one of the core technical partners in the project and is responsible for the development of the Billing Component. Also, CloudBroker Platform is used as generic access layer to both HPC and cloud resources by experiment partners of the project.
