Abstract

There is a convergence of interests in cyber-physical systems, systems engineering, and manufacturing innovation in the United States. The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has undertaken research programs in smart manufacturing systems to address many of the standards and measurement science issues that arise from this convergence. This chapter describes the convergence, the progress made thus far in the NIST programs in smart manufacturing systems, and the challenges that drive further research.
