Sogei S.p.A. is an Italian company dedicated to developing IT solutions for Italy's national tax system. It manages the country's tax information system (SIF). The document discusses Sogei's history and technological infrastructure, including its adoption of cloud-enabling technologies like virtualization and industry standard systems. It argues that Sogei's service model and data center governance make it well positioned to help develop a "federated government-owned/controlled cloud" for the public administration sector in Italy. As an experienced partner of Italian institutions, Sogei could also help other governments establish effective e-government strategies and reforms.
Four years back, during my interactions with certain big groups, I had offered to set up the Hub and spoke model for pilot projects in Industry 4.0. I thought a few of them will accept and become the hubs for smart manufacturing in India. Support was readily available from external trade development councils. Then came "demonetization" and "GST" and all these big groups disappeared. Then I approached some of the SME groups and textile associations. But as was expected after a 6 hour presentation, they maintained silence. I was expected to bring in money from these external councils. Investment was a big factor. I was not even paid for these "free" presentations.
Cut to a few days back, after 4 years of silence, I was approached by some of the above whether we can have the Hub and Spoke model projects of Industry 4.0 in India. I offered them end to end solutions. And listed out the cost factor. To my surprise, with so much research material available on Industry 4.0 projects, why are we hesitant to spend money for something good baffles me. For eg. in today's age if I want to buy a mobile, will I buy a Smartphone or an old relic. Even the poor desire a smartphone. Then why as a factory owner, we shy away from investing in Industry 4.0 technologies.
Then what is the way forward is the question oft asked. So I gave them another "free" presentation. Hope they buy the smartphone at least now.

Lessons from Long Tail: Delivering on the Semiconductor Digital Engagement Ma...Infosys
Traditional customer engagement methods and information infrastructures are no longer sufficient. Success in the semiconductor marketplace will belong to those who are prepared for comprehensive digital and social interactions and commerce across the sales and support cycle with traditional and new prospects and customers who are “engineers” by day and “digital consumers” after hours. The industry is realizing the power of Web 2.0 technologies to reach untapped emerging markets of product developers and engineers across the globe, while increasing customer satisfaction, productivity, and profitability.
The document discusses the need for semiconductor firms to embrace digital engagement strategies to reach new markets. As the ecosystem changes with more smaller companies and diversified locations, traditional sales and support methods are no longer sufficient. Semiconductor companies must evaluate their digital capabilities and define a digital engagement strategy using tools like Infosys' Stages of Excellence model. This model assesses a company's maturity in using digital interactions across the customer lifecycle to improve sales, support and collaboration. While some companies are leveraging digital engagement well, the document finds most customer journeys still lack defined information architecture and personalization.

3. Objectives
Build an open consolidated ecosystem and single community that will lower the
barriers of SMMEs for cognitive automation application development and
application of autonomous manufacturing processes.
1. To allow the interaction and interworking of the heterogeneous communications and
networking technologies necessary to support the ubiquitous connectivity of CPPS.
2. To avoid “data deluge” to decision makers so that they are able to dynamically
understand what is the relevant information for at a specific point in time, and make sure
only relevant data is presented to them.
3. To obtain a business development framework as a service for automation which deals
with intelligent decision support for strategic automation of factories driven by Robotics,
investment analysis tools and automation assessment frameworks.
4. To fit the multi-disciplinary needs of SME industry which find it really difficult to access to
heterogeneous isolated technologies. I4MS has been very successfully in setting up top
competence centres and innovation hubs for SMEs to developed and assess advanced
solutions in those fields. However, the implementation of cognitive factories and
automation systems, cannot and should not be tackled from an isolated technology
domain individually.
Welcome, Agenda & Project overview

18. Digital Shopfloor Alliance
• The rapid advances in ubiquitous computational power, coupled with the
opportunities of de-localizing into the Fog/Cloud parts of an CPPS/ICT framework,
have the potential to give rise to a new generation of service-based
software-intensive industrial automation systems, whose local intelligence (for
real-time management and orchestration of manufacturing tasks) can be
dynamically linked to runtime functionalities residing in the Cloud.
• This CPPS based on real-time distributed intelligence and enhanced by functional
extensions into the Cloud, will lead to a new information-driven automation
infrastructure.
• SMEs are often constrained by factors such as time, expertise and budgetary
(cost-resource investments) constraints.
• SMEs tend to behave opportunistically driven by concerns of cost effectiveness
rather than any strategic considerations.
• Therefore, digital shopfloor automation addressing SME concerns should fully
support a mission focused approach to activities.
19. Digital Shopfloor Alliance
• A number of key factors inhibit the widespread adoption and use of CPPS/IIoT, and
these include:
• The cost of technology (deployment, maintenance and operation as well as
physical devices).
• The time needed to implement CPPS/IIoT.
• Uncertainty over the business benefits and impacts.
• Lack of relevant internal CPPS/IIoT knowledge or expertise.
• Dependence on external integrators, consultants and vendors.
• Un-reliability of systems, potentially owing to technological obsolescence and
technical complexity.
• To adopt CPPS, the benefits must outweigh investment and maintenance costs.
20. Digital Shopfloor Alliance
• On the demand side, the major barriers to CPPS/IIoT adoption include time and cost
constraints coupled with organizational changes for doing business derived from
CPPS/IIoT adoption or a limited CPPS/IIoT literacy-expertise of SME owners and
employees.
• On the supply side, there is a need to move from making technologies or systems
available through marketplaces and digital catalogues towards providing reliable, cost
effective integrated solutions to support small enterprises, both in terms of customized
and flexible applications.
• SMEs demand that digital automation can be provided at a cost, within short
development cycles and be easily integrated “on-demand” for mission focused purposes.
• None of the FoF-11 projects could build such attractive multi-sided market offer in
isolation, yet all the components required are available and can be accommodated under
the AUTOWARE digital automation framework, which could be transformed into a
common Digital Shopfloor Framework to be further elaborated jointly.
• Automation component providers and app developers will cover the costs of certification
on the basis of access to larger market shares with increased integration processes that
can be now realized by system integrators at more competitive (lower) costs thanks to a
more “structured” system property and behavior characterization of individual
components, systems and SoS solutions.
21. Digital Shopfloor Alliance
• The Digital Shopfloor Alliance for digital automation of SMEs could deliver the
following assets:
• A digital automation RoI analysis framework (AUTOWARE)
• A digital marketplace to aggregate IEC-61499 solutions & applications
(DAEDALUS).
• Digital automation certification framework (AUTOWARE).
• Open fog & HPC infrastructure (AUTOWARE).
• Digital automation services & development community (FAR-EDGE)
• Digital automation ledger (FAR-EDGE)
• Automation system components, robotics, control, vision
(DAEDALUS+AUTOWARE)
22. Digital Shopfloor Alliance
• In fact, it responds to several stakeholders’ needs (multi-sided ecosystem):
• Manufacturing SMEs can adopt digital cognitive automation systems within budget
thanks to access to digital shopfloor marketplace. Furthermore, a fast development,
experimentation and technical feasibility assessment of CPPS applications is
ensured increasing their market visibility.
• Automation and machine tool/robot providers which can incorporate open CPS
trusted platforms as part of an increased number of next generation smart
production line components and solutions after component and system
certification.
• Developers of cognitive (learning, analysis, knowledge management capability
services) and automation apps for autonomous service support can benefit from
certified deployment and well characterized performance in open fog platforms.
• Providers of cloud and HPC simulation and computation services can host the
operation of advanced cognitive services to complement edge operations.
• Integrators and solution providers can build production line solutions for SMEs and
OEMs faster and with more reliable components as this alliance provides a suitable
testing environment that ensures large scale validation of new technologies and
services, including certified solutions for data storage as well as for communication.
