摘要:工業4.0,常被稱作第四次工業革命或工業4.0,代表著製造業和工業領域裡一次的典範轉移。這一變革融合了先進技術,如工業物聯網(IoT)、人工智慧(AI)、大數據分析、機器人技術、擴增實境(AR)及積層製造(3D列印),創建了相互連結、智慧且高效的生產系統。工業4.0透過將網路實體系統(CPS)整合進生產過程,進一步推動了這項進化。這些CPS由相互連結的感測器、執行器和運算裝置組成,它們透過網際網路相互通訊及與中央控制系統通訊,此種連結能夠實現生產流程的即時監控、分析及優化。
Abstract:Industrie 4.0, often called the Fourth Industrial Revolution or Industrie 4.0, represents a transformative paradigm shift in manufacturing and industry. It combines advanced technologies such as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), big data analytics, robotics, augmented reality (AR), and additive manufacturing (3D printing) to create interconnected, smart, and highly efficient production systems. Industrie 4.0 takes this evolution further by integrating cyber-physical systems (CPS) into the production process. These CPS consist of interconnected sensors, actuators, and computing devices that communicate with each other and with central control systems over the Internet. This connectivity enables real-time monitoring, analysis, and optimization of production processes.

Preface
In the midst of a rapidly evolving technological landscape, we find ourselves at a pivotal moment marked by the establishment of the Global Digital Twin Collaboration Center. As we embark on the journey of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, characterized by the integration of advanced technologies such as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), big data analytics, robotics, augmented reality (AR), and additive manufacturing (3D printing), the lines between the physical and digital worlds.
The inception of the Global Digital Twin Collaboration Center signifies our position at the forefront of industrial development, serving as a nexus for innovation and transformation. In this digital age, digital twins emerge as a critical driver of industrial metamorphosis. These virtual counterparts meticulously replicate real-world entities' characteristics, processes, and systems, providing stakeholders with comprehensive insights derived from data sourced by sensors, IoT devices, and various streams. This enables informed decision-making, proactive maintenance, and performance optimization.
The establishment of this center is multifaceted. Its mission is to facilitate comprehensive industrial transformation through the seamless integration of digital twins and Industrie 4.0 principles. Serving as a hub for collaboration, innovation, and knowledge dissemination, it aims to propel industries towards a future characterized by enhanced efficiency, resilience, and competitiveness.
Our vision is one of a dynamic eco-system where stakeholders converge to unlock the full potential of digital twins and Industrie 4.0 technologies. Through collaborative partnerships, pioneering research endeavors, and immersive educational initiatives, we envision a future where every facet of the industry is imbued with intelligence, adaptability, and sustainability.
Our objectives' core lies in a commitment to excellence, innovation, and societal impact. We strive to pioneer novel applications of digital twins across industries, empower organizations with the tools and insights needed to navigate the complexities of the digital age and foster a culture of continuous learning and collaboration.
The Global Digital Twin Collaboration Center, equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, cutting-edge infrastructure, and a passionate team of experts, stands poised to redefine industrial development. Through integrated demonstrations, interactive exhibits, industry-specific applications, and thought leadership events, we aim to showcase the transformative potential of digital twins in reshaping the future of manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, energy, and beyond.
As we embark on this journey of exploration and innovation, we sincerely invite stakeholders from across the globe to join us in realizing the promise of a digital future. Together, let us unlock new possibilities, redefine industry boundaries, and usher in an era of unprecedented progress and prosperity. The future beckons and the Global Digital Twin Collaboration Center stands ready to lead the way see Fig 1.
