Understanding the drivers and enablers of Industry 4.0. Recognizing the opportunities and challenges, such as future of manufacturing, impacts of Industry 4.0. Understanding key technologies including AI and IIoT in Industry 4.0. Applying techniques in designing real applications in Industry 4.0.
The special topic provides an introduction to Industry 4.0 including two major components: Industrial Artificial Intelligence (IAI) and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Both components will be introduced with applications in industries. In addition, the course also familiarizes students with the methodology and with industrial platforms for IAI and IIoT. Students will work on group projects that require competency on IAI and IIoT to gain hands-on experience. Particularly, students will identify an industrial problem, implement IAI and IIoT to design a solution based on industrial platforms, and conduct a performance analysis in lab environment.
1. Identify the drivers and enablers of Industry 4.02. Describe advanced manufacturing technologies in Industry 4.03. Compare the various techniques used in Industry 4.04. Design applications of Industrial Artificial Intelligence (IAI) and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) in Industry 4.05. Analyse the opportunities, challenges brought about by Industry 4.0

• Mid-term test (worth 30% of overall marks): to be held in the first week of the second term, 40 minutes. This will be a summative assessment covering the first six weeks of lecture contents (IAI). The test will be closed-book and related to learning outcomes 1, 2 and 3. • Assignment 1 – Project (worth 40% of overall marks): Students will work in groups of three. Each group will identify an industrial problem, implement IAI and IIoT to design a solution based on industrial platforms, conduct a performance analysis in lab or industrial environment, and present their results in class. Project progress will be evaluated first on Week 6 (worth 15% of overall marks) via oral discussion with the lecturer. Final presentation (worth 25% of overall marks) will be given on Week 11 and 12. Each group will give a 20-minutes presentation followed by 5 minutes Q&A. This assignment is related to learning outcome 4.• Assignment 2 – Essay (worth 30% of overall marks): Students will work in groups of three. Each group will prepare an essay to enhance their understanding of Industry 4.0. An example could be the literature review of DNN in Industry 4.0. Essay progress will be evaluated first on Week 6 (worth 10% of overall marks) via oral discussion with the lecturer. Students will submit their essay by the end of week 12 (worth 20% of overall marks). This assignment is related to learning outcome 5.
