Really well written (because it is short and to the point) article that appears in the San Jose Mercury News today about the potential for manufacturing in the US to make a comeback. The central meme is that advances in technology have allowed for the manufacturing process to be abstracted to the point that it’s possible to have the same sort of advances seen in computing when standard methods for storing data (databases) and access business logic (web services and predecessors) emerged. This is exactly what we’re trying to jump on at Siemens: abstract the manufacturing process so you can improve and adapt it all in the comfort of a purely digital environment.
