Immobilization of polydiacetylene (PDA) vesicles on the surface of the modified carbon nanotube (CNT)-networked pillared structures afforded a 3D networked sensor system. A more than three order increase in the sensitivity was observed with the 3D networked sensor matrix in comparison with a conventional 2D PDA sensor system.

Im Forschungsprojekt „CPPSProcessAssist“ wurde für vier kleine und mittlere Unternehmen (KMU) der Prozessindustrie ein modulares und mobiles Assistenzsystem zur Instandhaltungsunterstützung entwickelt. Neben der technologischen Entwicklung des Systems wurde im Projekt eine Vorgehensweise zur Gestaltung und Einführung des Systems in den Unternehmen erarbeitet. Mitarbeiter der Schicht und Schichtleitung, Projektingenieure, Instandhalter sowie Technologieentwickler wurden als Mitgestalter des Systems und der daraus folgenden Veränderungen im Unternehmen eingebunden. Das resultierende System bildet die unternehmensübergreifenden Anforderungen von Instandhaltungsaufgaben in der Prozessindustrie technisch ab und ist an vorhandene IT-Infrastrukturen anpassbar. Die gewählte Vorgehensweise zur Einbindung der Mitarbeiter in der Gestaltung des Systems trug dazu bei, die unternehmens- und nutzerspezifischen Anforderungen in das System zu integrieren sowie die Mitarbeiter zu Eingabe bedarfsgerechter Assistenzinhalten zu befähigen.   A modular and portable maintenance assistance system was developed for four small and medium-sized process manufacturers in the research project CPPSProcessAssist. Along with the technological development of the system, a procedure for designing and implementing the system in the companies was developed. Shift workers and managers, project engineers, maintenance engineers and technology developers were involved in designing the system and implementing the ensuing changes in their companies. The resulting system technically maps cross-company requirements for maintenance work in process manufacturing and can be modified for existing IT infrastructures. The selected procedure for involving employees in the system design helped integrating specific company and user requirements in the system and enabling employees to enter content in the assistance system based on their needs.

Mahindra Firstchoice illustrates the process of ecosystem orchestration in the context of the second-hand car market in India. It describes how Mahindra Firstchoice mapped the ecosystem in relation to six key parties—consumers who were buyers, consumers who were sellers, car manufacturers, independent used-car dealers, independent car service workshops, and banks. It then identified the bottlenecks and ‘pain points’ that afflicted the six parties. The used-car market did not function properly because of lack of trust, information, and transparency and Mahindra Firstchoice worked with the parties to identify solutions to the market failures. These involved, amongst other things, the creation of third-party car inspection services, the establishment of a multi-brand car-dealer franchise, a warranty system, a bluebook of second-hand prices and transactions, and a car diagnosis and repair system.
