Abstract

In a process of transfer of production control in proximity to production site for enabling decentralized manufacturing, production control data and routing data are retrieved from a centralized system. The retrieved production control data and the routing data are stored within a connector installed at a proximity to a plant floor. An operation associated with the production control data of a purchase order is matched with the resource published in the connector. Upon determining the match between the operation and the resource, the resource is dynamically allocated to perform the operation. The control of manufacturing process of the plant floor is provided to the connector to realize de-centralized manufacturing.
