Manufacturing systems and technology stand on a new frontier, facing up to the challenges posed by the ever-evolving requirements of global sustainability. Value-creation is taking its place alongside more traditional production-process priorities. Collected here are over a hundred papers concerned with all manner of new directions in manufacturing systems and given at the 41st CIRP Conference on Manufacturing Systems. The high-quality material presented in this volume includes reports of work from both scientific and engineering standpoints and several invited and keynote papers addressing the current cutting edge and likely future trends in manufacturing systems.
