Data-driven Design and Manufacturing Colab (D3M_Colab)

格拉斯哥地区和苏格兰各地的制造商越来越认识到，在设计和制造中有效利用数据将转变生产力，缓解能源危机，实现净零目标。他们通过提高工程师的技能和招聘数据科学家来应对这个机会。然而，即使是大公司也报告了招聘、留住和有效支持数据科学团队的问题，这些团队拥有足够的临界质量，以在与其他行业竞争时保持世界一流的能力。中小企业的情况就更困难了，因为他们往往没有理由聘请全职的数据专家。这个项目将把苏格兰国家制造研究所（NMIS）以行业为重点的数据和设计团队与斯特拉斯克莱德大学工业信息学集群（IIC）的研究人员和学生结合起来，创建一个数据驱动的设计和制造协作实验室。（D3M\_Colab），一种开放的工业参与方法，增强和提升格拉斯哥制造商的内部数据科学和设计能力，降低新技术部署的风险。在最有效的数据科学和设计能力需要直接嵌入工业的理念指导下，D3M\_Colab将专注于四个领域：* 通过提供技能和毕业生“温室”安置计划，在公司内部建立能力，* 通过NMIS和IIC专家的合作支持，双向借调以及与创新技术供应商的密切合作，加强公司内部的现有能力，* 通过最终用户定义的高级设计和分析项目来增强功能，这些项目是根据公司的具体要求量身定制的（大型企业和中小企业），以及 * 通过“制造业沙盒”降低创新和数据驱动型转型的风险，其中公司的物理和数字基础设施可以复制，提供一个可以开发多种解决方案的环境，对生产零影响。

Manufacturers in the Glasgow region, and across Scotland, increasingly recognise that effective use of data in design and manufacturing will be transformational to productivity, mitigating the energy crisis, and attaining net-zero targets. They are responding to this opportunity by upskilling engineers and recruiting data-scientists. However, even large companies report issues recruiting, retaining, and effectively supporting data-science teams with sufficient critical mass required to maintain world-class capabilities when competing with other sectors. The situation for SMEs, who often cannot justify employing a full-time data expert, is even more difficult.This project will combine the industry-focused data and design teams at the National Manufacturing Institute Scotland (NMIS) with the researchers and students in the Industrial Informatics Cluster (IIC) at the University of Strathclyde to create a Data-Driven Design & Manufacturing Colab (D3M\_Colab), an open approach to industrial engagement, augmenting and upskilling Glasgow manufacturers' in-house data science and design capabilities and de-risking deployment of new technologies.Guided by the philosophy that to be most effective data science and design capabilities need to be directly embedded into industry, the D3M\_Colab will focus on four areas:* Creating internal capability within companies through delivery of a skills and graduate 'hothouse' placement programme,* Enhancing existing capability within companies through collaborative support from NMIS and IIC experts, bi-directional secondments, and close cooperation with innovative technology venders,* Augmenting capabilities through end-user defined advanced design and analytics projects tailored to specific company requirements (large enterprises and SMEs), and* De-risking innovation and data-driven transformation with 'Manufacturing Sandboxes' where companies' physical and digital infrastructure can be replicated, providing an environment where multiple solutions can be developed with zero impact on production.
