To Study Whether the Managers are Effectively Ready for Industry 4.0 - With Reference to Bangalore City, India

Abstract
Industry 4.0 is a blend of advanced analytics, Big Data, Robotics & Automation, Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT) and Process Digitization across the business value chain. Based on the technological concepts of cyber-physical systems, the Internet of Things and the Internet of Services, it facilitates the vision of the Smart Factory. Within the modular structured Smart Factories of Industry 4.0, cyber-physical systems monitor physical processes, create a virtual copy of the physical world and make decentralized decisions. Over the Internet of Things, Cyber-physical systems communicate & cooperate with each other & humans in real time. Via the Internet of Services, both internal & cross-organizational services are offered & utilized by participants of the value chain. The focus of Industry 4.0 is to create smart products, procedures and processes using smart factories which are capable of managing complexity, less prone to disruption and able to manufacture goods more efficiently In the smart factory, human beings, machines and resources communicate with each other as in a social network. Industry 4.0 is a key initiative of the German high-tech strategy supported by the German government. Industry 4.0 focuses on the end-to-end digitisation of all physical assets and integration into digital ecosystems with value chain partners. Generating, analysing and communicating data seamlessly under pins the gains promised by Industry 4.0, which networks a wide range of new technologies to create value.
