Meer over het boek

Innovation is essential for organizations to remain competitive in a globalized, knowledge-driven marketplace. It involves applying new ideas to products, processes, organizational practices, and business models. The demand for responsiveness, agility, and high performance in manufacturing systems has led to a need for new approaches to achieve cost-effective solutions across all enterprise levels. A significant challenge lies in creating frameworks that explore effective synergies between human potential and automated systems, focusing on process characterization, modeling, and developing suitable support tools. The implementation of Automation Systems necessitates a growing understanding of enabling technologies and business practices. Additionally, the digital and networked environment is expected to inspire new business practices. To achieve desired performance levels, it is vital to balance technical, human, and social aspects when developing and applying innovations and enabling technologies. BASYS conferences have been established to foster the development of balanced automation systems, addressing many current challenges in the field.
