Data Management and Digital Transformation in Industrial Process Automation

Data Management and Digital Transformation in Industrial Process Automation

Data management

Data management and digital transformation are key in the automation of industrial processes today.
In an increasingly competitive and dynamic environment, organizations need to adopt advanced technologies to optimise their operations, improve decision-making, and foster innovation.
This course, “Data Management and Digital Transformation in Industrial Process Automation”, focuses on providing the tools and knowledge necessary to effectively manage the data generated in industrial processes, as well as to implement digital transformation strategies that drive efficiency and sustainability.
Through case studies and cutting-edge studies, participants will learn how to integrate digital solutions that not only increase productivity, but also enable businesses to quickly adapt to market changes and new consumer demands.
The relevance of this course lies in its ability to prepare professionals to face the challenges of Industry 4.0, thus fostering a smarter and more connected future.

This course is part of the European AI4CI Master Artificial Intelligence for Connected Industries.

The AI4CI master is a European master opened at the universities Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers (Cnam), Paris, France; Canm Grand Est (CGE), Mulhouse, France; and National Technical University of Ukraine (NTUU), Kiev, Ukraine; and as of the next academic year as well at the University of Ulm, Ulm, Germany; University Babeș-Bolyai (UBB), Cluj-Napoca, Romania, Avignon University, Avignon, France and Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC), Barcelona, Spain.

The master training program covers:

  • fundamentals of artificial intelligence and machine learning applied to networked systems.
  • automatics and advanced automation, for industrial networks and robotics;
  • advanced network architectures, IoT and computer systems;

The master teachers include world-class academics from our European partners and industry experts active in the master technical areas on international, European and national collaborative industrial research projects, standardization and open-source bodies.
