Summary:One of the foremost challenges facing manufacturing industry nowadays is the large-scale integration of their enterprise systems, along with their associated models, data and information. The enterprise applications generate large amounts of data which are a valuable asset and potentially an important source of new information and knowledge for improving the business of the enterprise, gaining competitive advantage in fierce markets and coping with changes and managerial complexity.
