Glossary
1. “IPv6”: IPv6 stands for “Internet Protocol Version 6.” It is the next-generation IP protocol designed by the Internet Engineering Task Force to replace IPv4. The primary issue with IPv4 is the shortage of network address resources, which severely constrains the application and development of the Internet. The use of IPv6 not only resolves the issue of limited network address resources but also eliminates barriers to connecting various access devices to the Internet.
2. “Integration of Informatization and Industrialization”: The integration of informatization and industrialization represents a high-level, in-depth combination of the two. It refers to using informatization to drive industrialization and industrialization to promote informatization, thereby pursuing a new path of industrialization. The core of this integration lies in informatization support, aiming to achieve a sustainable development model.
3. “Industrial Internet Identifier Resolution”: The Industrial Internet Identifier Resolution System is a vital component of the Industrial Internet network architecture. It provides foundational resources and information interconnectivity capabilities across domains, industries, and enterprises, serving as the critical infrastructure for achieving interconnectivity across the entire Industrial Internet network.The Industrial Internet Identifier Resolution System assigns unique identifiers to both physical and virtual objects through identification codes (such as barcodes, QR codes, and RFID tags). These identifiers enable the recording and tracing of the entire lifecycle information of these virtual or physical objects.
4. “Wi-Fi 6”: Wi-Fi 6, also known as the sixth-generation wireless network technology, is the name of the Wi-Fi standard. Compared to previous generations of Wi-Fi technology, it offers faster speeds, lower latency, greater capacity, enhanced security, and improved energy efficiency.
5. “Time-Sensitive Networking”: Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) refers to a set of protocol standards currently being developed by the TSN Task Group within the IEEE 802.1 Working Group. This standard defines time-sensitive mechanisms for Ethernet data transmission, adding determinism and reliability to standard Ethernet to ensure it can provide a stable and consistent service level for the transmission of critical data.
6. “Edge Computing”: This refers to an open platform that integrates core capabilities in networking, computing, storage, and applications to provide services at the nearest point to the source of objects or data. Applications are initiated at the edge, resulting in faster network service responses and meeting the industry’s fundamental needs in real-time operations, application intelligence, security, and privacy protection.
7. “Digital Workshop”: A digital workshop represents the comprehensive application of digital and networked technologies within a production facility. It integrates information from CNC equipment with process design systems, production organization systems, and other management systems to form an integrated manufacturing system with automated information flow. This approach improves the overall organization and management of production, enhances the flexibility of the manufacturing system, and increases the efficiency of digital equipment.
8. “Smart Factory”: A smart factory utilizes various modern technologies to automate office operations, management, and production within the facility. Its objectives include strengthening and standardizing enterprise management, reducing operational errors, plugging various loopholes, improving work efficiency, ensuring safe production, providing decision-making references, enhancing external communication, and expanding international markets.System Components: Building automation systems, production process monitoring systems, industrial and security CCTV surveillance systems, burglar alarm systems, parking management systems, smart access control systems, public address systems, structured cabling systems, computer network systems, system integration, and specialized system integration for measurement and control technology and instrumentation.
9. “Microservices”: A software development technique—a variant of the Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) pattern—that advocates dividing a single application into a group of small services. These services coordinate and collaborate with one another to deliver ultimate value to users.Each service runs in its own independent process, and services communicate with one another using lightweight communication mechanisms (typically HTTP-based RESTful APIs). Each service is built around specific business functions and can be deployed independently to production environments, pre-production environments, and similar settings. Additionally, a unified, centralized service management mechanism should be avoided whenever possible; for a specific service, the appropriate language and tools should be selected based on the context.
10. “Homomorphic Encryption”: A cryptographic technique based on the computational complexity theory of mathematical problems. Processing data that has undergone homomorphic encryption yields an output; decrypting this output results in the same outcome as processing the unencrypted original data using the same method.
