A digital twin is a digital representation of a real-world counterpart, which can receive and provide data to create value within a use case. Digital twins create value for users by enabling new and enhanced smart services. However, ambiguous definitions and terminology coupled with a lack of shared conceptual reference frameworks complicate cross-functional discussions and hinder the widespread implementation of digital twins. This thesis proposes a new definition and presents two conceptual reference frameworks to systematically depict value creation with digital twins. A design science research approach with mixed methods was used to iteratively design and evaluate these artifacts while e...

This book offers state-of-the-art descriptions of intelligent service innovations in industry, supported by novel scientific approaches. It gathers findings presented at the 3rd Intelligent Services Summit, which took place in Zurich in September 2020, and chiefly focused on the design and application of Digital Twin as an enabler for business development in the field of smart services. Divided into three parts, the book addresses the challenges involved in the successful development and implementation of smart services for industry and science, ranging from data management to product design and lifecycle management. The four main aspects covered are industrial challenges, value system design (how to integrate resources into service ecosystems to create value), value creation through value proposition (how to create value for ecosystem actors), and value capture (how to create value for ecosystem businesses). Given its scope, the book offers an essential guide for practitioners and advanced students alike.
This book presents some twenty case studies, showing how companies in different industry sectors and of different sizes make advances in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). Like the author’s previous volumes, this book provides a valuable resource for those wishing to learn about PLM and how to implement and apply it in their companies. Helping readers to · learn about implementing and benefiting from PLM; · learn about good PLM solutions and best practice; · improve their planning and decision-making abilities; · benefit from the lessons learned by the companies featured in the case studies; · proceed faster and further with PLM the book presents effective PLM solutions and best practices. At the same time, the case studies included demonstrate how different companies implement and benefit from PLM. Each case study is addressed in a separate chapter and details a different situation, enabling readers to put themselves in the situation and think through different actions and decisions. A valuable resource for PLM team managers and employees in engineering and manufacturing companies, the book is also of interest to researchers and students in industrial engineering fields.
Modern and professional communication is required to realise the goal of sustainability in society. This book develops a theoretical and empirical framework, integrating interdisciplinary perspectives from communications theory, psychology, sociology, educational sciences, systems theory and constructivism. Its aim is to inform the establishment of sustainability communication. Complementing this theoretical framework, the book provides methods and concepts in a range of fields such as corporate practice, education and media. The book addresses the scientific community and students as well as communicators in all categories of sustainability communication.
In the Basque region of Spain, food and eating are the center of everyday life and the focus of endless conversation. This award-winning, internationally acclaimed cookbook presents 130 recipes for casual, elegant fare from this food-centric region's increasingly popular cuisine. With an emphasis on high-quality fresh ingredients, simply prepared, the Basque style of cooking fits right in with today's back-to-basics focus on whole foods. For starters, there are plates full of pinchos, the Basque version of tapas, including Eggs Stuffed with Anchovies and Tuna, and Smoked Salmon and Asparagus Pinchos. Among main courses, there is a wealth of light and healthy fish and shellfish fare including Cod-Stuffed Piquillo Peppers with Biscayne Sauce and Red Snapper Guernica-Style, and rustic and hearty meat and chicken dishes such as Top Loin of Pork Cooked with Milk, Chicken Breasts with Garlic and Parsley, and Venison with Red Currant Sauce. Soups, stews, salads, and sides round out the feast.
This 1981 volume considers all the aspects of grey mullets which are of relevance to their culture.
The warming of the Earth has been the subject of intense debate and concern for many scientists, policy-makers, and citizens for at least the past decade. Climate Change Science: An Analysis of Some Key Questions, a new report by a committee of the National Research Council, characterizes the global warming trend over the last 100 years, and examines what may be in store for the 21st century and the extent to which warming may be attributable to human activity.
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 14th IFIP WG 5.1 International Conference on Product Lifecycle Management, PLM 2017, held in Seville, Spain, in July 2017. The 64 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 78 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: PLM maturity, implementation and adoption; PLM for digital factories; PLM and process simulation; PLM, CAX and knowledge management; PLM and education; BIM; cyber-physical systems; modular design and products; new product development; ontologies, knowledge and data models; and Product, Service, Systems (PSS).
