34.4 Discussion
Through the modeling focusing on the business viewpoint, we have identified 13
stakeholders that are to be involved for realizing customized disassembly for each
individual product. Among them, CA, TSP, and the Earth are those who are specific
to product recovery process.
Discussions about IIoT service platform which enables communication and information sharing among multiple stakeholders mainly focus on those who are involved
in production stage [e.g. (Monostori et al. 2016)]. However, the business viewpoint
suggests importance of information sharing with CA and TSP. IIoT will be quite
useful for material tracking by nature, implementation of such IIoT platform will be
quite promising. The third stakeholder, the Earth, should also be taken into account
when environmental aspects are included in concerns.
Through the design of the usage viewpoint, we have identified two fundamental
roles (i.e. DP and DE) for supporting PM to customize product assembly process to
each individual product. In the usage viewpoint shown in Fig. 34.2, we assume DEP,
OEM, CP, MP, and user will provide technological and usage information. In order to
make this happen, we have to design incentive for each stakeholder. Example of such
incentive for DEP is receiving statistical usage information (e.g. frequency of usage
of each part in the device) from the user (i.e. DF), which can be used to improve design
and control software of its devices, in exchange of their technological information.
In order to design such incentive for each stakeholder, secure data matching service
such as international data spaces (International data spaces association 2019) will be
useful.
34.5 Summary and Outlook
To demonstrate the potential of CPS adoption in product recovery processes, the paper
designs and proposes CPS utilization scenario: customized disassembly focusing on
the business and usage viewpoint of IIRA. As a result, we have identified recovery
process specific stakeholders that are to share information as well as roles and
application programs that has to be implemented in the use case.
This means current development effort for CPS is not sufficient for adopting CPS
to product recovery process, although CPS has a significant potential for customizing
(and individualizing) product recovery processes. Designing scenarios in product
recovery processes as well as those in production and usage stages, thus, is quite
useful for highlighting the future technological development needs.
To explore the potential and future development need for adopting CPS in product
recovery processes, a variety of scenarios focusing on different tasks such as cleaning,
maintenance, remanufacturing and so forth are to be explicitly described and shared
among a variety of stakeholders with different concerns. The design of customized
disassembly proposed in the paper provides a starting point for the exploration.
