Abstract

In order to obtain an advantageous position in the protean global market, the modern manufacturing enterprises require a flexible and self-adaptive foundation which is capable of dynamically exploiting manufacturing resources and services distributed across the network. In this paper, the cloud manufacturing vision (GetCM) is introduced to provide the on-demand architecture with reliability, flexibility and reliability based on cloud computing. In contrast to the conventional networked manufacturing paradigm, the paper analyzes from technological, functional and economic aspects to provide the evidences of the benefits from GetCM. A primary architecture for GetCM is introduced based on the analysis of key criteria in realizing the vision of a function for cloud manufacturing. Focuses of this paper are placed on the vision and the outline of GetCM architecture.
