从社会计算到社会制造:一场即将来临的产业革命

From Social Computing to Social Manufacturing:The Coming Industrial Revolution and New Frontier in Cyber-Physical-Social Space

通过社会计算,社会制造可以使得传统的企业转变为能主动感知并且响应用户大规模定制需求的智能企业。社会制造的关键就是主动、实时地将社会需求与社会制造能力有机地衔接起来,从而有效地实现需求和供应之间的相互转化过程。为此,必须把社会计算和社会制造这两个密切相关的新兴领域有机地结合起来,将互联网、物联网和物流网与3D打印机组成的社会制造网络无缝连接,通过众包等方式使社会民众充分参与产品的整个制造过程,促成个性化、实时化、经济化的生产和消费模式,形成新的产业革命。

Through social computing, social manufacturing can transform traditional enterprises to intelligent enterprises that can actively sense and respond to customers＇ individualized needs in massive scale. The key to the success of the social manufacturing is to integrate effectively social demands and production capacity in real time. To this end, it is imperative to combine the two emerging fields of social computing and social manufacturing, and to connect seamlessly lnternet and logistic networks with 3D printing based manufacturing networks, so that customers can participate fully in the whole life cycle of production processes through crowdsourcing, eventually leading to an industrial revolution and new lifestyle in cyber-physical-social space.
