Abstract Advances in Information Technology and Communications are leading to a paradigm shift in manufacturing automation systems. Based on the Internet of Things (IoT) and Smart Technologies, manufacturing industries are witnessing the fourth Industrial Revolution, coined as Industrie 4.0 (I4.0). Although many studies related to this subject were published, including several literature reviews, there is no consensual definition of I4.0. Consequently, there is not a clear understanding of the underlying enabling technologies required to implement it. That makes it more difficult for players to plan a migration strategy. This paper proposes a technological pathway infrastructure from Industry 3.0 (I3.0) to I4.0, based on the analysis of research and academic involvement in this transition process. A bibliometric study was directed to academic work, while field research addressed industry practitioners. The purpose of field research is to understand the impact of the knowledge about the transition from I3.0 up to I4.0. The contribution of this study includes a construct showing the fundamental technology infrastructure to pave the way from I3.0 up to I4.0. Furthermore, it reveals the transition of manufacturing paradigm from I3.0 complex, centralized, monolithic architecture and physical Supply Chain to a modular, distributed, collaborative, and product-service-oriented I4.0 architecture.

迈向I4.0：从I3.0进化的综合分析

摘要 信息技术和通信的进步正在导致制造自动化系统的范式转变。基于物联网 (IoT) 和智能技术，制造业正在见证第四次工业革命，即工业 4.0 (I4.0)。尽管发表了许多与该主题相关的研究，包括一些文献综述，但对 I4.0 没有一致的定义。因此，对实现它所需的底层支持技术没有清晰的理解。这使得玩家更难以规划迁移策略。本文基于对这一转变过程中的研究和学术参与的分析，提出了从工业 3.0 (I3.0) 到 I4.0 的技术途径基础设施。一项文献计量研究是针对学术工作的，而实地研究则针对行业从业者。实地研究的目的是了解有关从 I3.0 到 I4.0 过渡的知识的影响。本研究的贡献包括一个构建，展示了为从 I3.0 到 I4.0 铺平道路的基本技术基础设施。此外，它还揭示了制造范式从 I3.0 复杂、集中、单体架构和物理供应链向模块化、分布式、协作和面向产品服务的 I4.0 架构的转变。0 到 I4.0。此外，它还揭示了制造范式从 I3.0 复杂、集中、单体架构和物理供应链向模块化、分布式、协作和面向产品服务的 I4.0 架构的转变。0 到 I4.0。此外，它还揭示了制造范式从 I3.0 复杂、集中、单体架构和物理供应链向模块化、分布式、协作和面向产品服务的 I4.0 架构的转变。
