Decision Model For Technical Value-Stream Integration Of Active Component Traceability

Digitisation and the interconnection of data within value-adding-processes promise a multitude of opportunities in order to increase the competitiveness of production companies. Different initiatives, such as Germany's "Industrie 4.0", were started in order to take the digitalisation of production processes to a new level.
