This is a challenge especially for small and medium-sized enterprises, as they have neither sufficient human nor financial resources to deal with the topic sufficiently. However, since small and medium-sized enterprises form the backbone of the economy, it is particularly important to support these companies in the introduction of Industry 4.0 and to develop appropriate tools. This work is intended to fill this gap and to enhance research on Industry 4.0 for small and medium-sized enterprises by presenting an exploratory study that has been used to systematically analyze and evaluate the needs and translate them into a final list of (functional) requirements and constraints using axiomatic design as scientific approach.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jcde\/qwaa012","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,6]],"date-time":"2020-03-06T12:20:12Z","timestamp":1583497212000},"page":"129-144","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":23,"title":["Systematic analysis of needs and requirements for the design of smart manufacturing systems in SMEs\u2606"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"7","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2033-4265","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Erwin","family":"Rauch","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Science and Technology, Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Universit\u00e4tsplatz 5, 39100 Bolzano, Italy"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2177-1440","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andrew R","family":"Vickery","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, 100 Institute Road, Worcester, 01609 MA, USA"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"2020042510555241800_bib1","author":"ASTM","year":"2013","journal-title":"Standard Terminology for Additive Manufacturing Technologies"},{"issue":"15","key":"2020042510555241800_bib2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2787","DOI":"10.1016\/j.comnet.2010.05.010","article-title":"The internet of things: A survey","volume":"54","author":"Atzori","year":"2010","journal-title":"Computer Networks"},{"key":"2020042510555241800_bib3","author":"Bauer","year":"2014","journal-title":"Volkswirtschaftliches Potenzial f\u00fcr Deutschland"},{"key":"2020042510555241800_bib4","author":"Baum","year":"2013","journal-title":"Innovationen als Basis der n\u00e4chsten Industrierevolution.
