ABSTRACT
Cloud Manufacturing (CMfg) as a service-oriented manufacturing (SOM) paradigm promotes the paradigm of partnership and collaboration among the globally distributed resources. Like technology-based marketplaces, it can identify different suppliers, determine their available services, and assign them to the requested orders based on the service-demand matching mechanism. The dominant capabilities of the SOM as a service can provide a collaborative and flexible manufacturing network configuration. This paper has focused on developing a new CMfg architecture with a concentrating on collaborative concepts to elaborate the modular manufacturing through the virtual process. In this model, different parts of the customized products can be designed as modules produced by distributed suppliers. A (Formula presented.) representation model for the SOM system has been proposed by this architecture. The proposed architecture is enriched by the help of novel technologies presented in Industry 4.0 (I4.0). The model's performance can be evaluated through different approaches, like topology analysis. Furthermore, to simulate a modeling procedure of the architecture, the process of the ventilator production marketplace is discussed in Tehran, Iran. The capabilities of the model analysis to configure the CMfg network and fulfilling the demands have also been described. © 2023 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
