@inbook{Spath2020, abstract = {While the term digitisation mainly refers to implications of digital technologies, digitalisation covers also the changes in society. It opens up fascinating possibilities and will change the world of tomorrow. It is important to tap the associated potentials for innovation in order to maintain competitiveness and secure future success. However, studies show that many companies still have major problems in shaping the digital transformation. The sometimes disruptive character of digitalisation is already impressively evident in retail (e.g., Amazon), television (e.g., Netflix), or the travel industry (e.g., Airbnb). But a fundamental change is also emerging in industrial sectors such as mechanical engineering or automotive industry, which is expressed by the popular term Industry 4.0 (Kagermann and Winter. The second wave of digitalisation: Germany's chance. In: Messner D, Mair S, Meyer L, (eds) Germany and the World 2030. What will change. How we must act. Econ Publ, Berlin, 2018). This will have a significant impact on the design of tomorrow's engineering systems (de Weck et al. Engineering systems: meeting human needs in a complex technological world. MIT Press, Cambridge, 2011). Those socio-technical systems increasingly shape the economy but also other fields of society such as law, ethics, security, work, and ecology. The described challenges make it necessary to structure the field of action of digitisation. We use a framework consisting of three fields of action: (1) products and services, (2) value creation, and (3) business models. For each field we will discuss the effects on industries as well as societies.}, added-at = {2023-03-22T14:56:58.000+0100}, address = {Cham}, author = {Spath, D. and Gausemeier, J. and Dumitrescu, R. and Winter, J. and Steglich, S. and Drewel, M.}, biburl = {https://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2dc7c4985425ea1f64e4363aa44aa6937/jw4null}, booktitle = {Handbook of Engineering Systems Design}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-46054-9_5-2}, editor = {Maier, Anja and Oehmen, Josef and Vermaas, Pieter E.}, interhash = {1829fe2ad734da79e8cf6769273e6303}, intrahash = {dc7c4985425ea1f64e4363aa44aa6937}, isbn = {978-3-030-46054-9}, keywords = {myown}, pages = {1--27}, publisher = {Springer International Publishing}, timestamp = {2023-03-22T14:56:58.000+0100}, title = {Digitalisation of Society}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-46054-9_5-2}, year = 2020 }
