'Industry 4.0' is Really 4,000 Years Old

摘要

THE RAGE THESE days is something called "Industry 4.0." I have been invited to scores of presentations designed to show how Industry 4.0 is not just the next generation of manufacturing, but a must-do next step to produce higher quality product, faster, on-time, and at far less cost. Industry 4.0 sounds exciting and novel, so I have participated in webinars, attended seminars and read up on this must-do phenomenon.
