Abstract |
|
In recent years, technologies have made considerable progress due to increased availability of larger data
sets, more powerful computing performance, and greater budget allocations. However, many implications and
concerns related to successful global implementation of A&D Industry 4.0 solutions remain. This study provides a
systematic review of published material on Industry 4.0 in A&D to understand critical components needed for
successful implementation of smart technologies. The review also included investigating Industry 4.0 definitions,
technologies, implementation factors, and empirical studies on the usage of Industry 4.0 solutions in A&D. Records
from 2015 to 2022 were found using multiple databases and showed ample research in organizations working toward
digital transformation and model-based engineering, specifically in areas related to manufacturing, research and
development, logistics, surveillance, reconnaissance, intelligence, and command and control. The results also
emphasize the need for empirical evidence related to the implementation of Industry 4.0 and the lack of papers
studying Industry 4.0 in A&D settings. The literature review includes a bibliometric analysis to assess the maturity of
the topic and papers, and a TA to investigate the CSFs identified in the literature. |
