Enhanced Product Lifecycle Information Management using communicating materials
A system for an enhanced Product LifeCycle Information Management (PLIM) is proposed. A dual challenge is addressed: providing a new intelligent material & a high degree of data synchronization. These challenges are addressed with the combination of CL 2 M and communicating materials. A scenario using medical garments shows how the desired degree of data synchronization is reached. Research perspectives on data synchronization regarding existing standards are introduced.
