IMPLEMENTING INDUSTRY 4.0 FOR SHIPYARD WITHOUT WIFI CONNECTIVITY.
GRSE being operated under the administrative control of Ministry of Defense, as per the cyber security policy of “Cyber Security Group, Department of Defense Production”, the WiFi connectivity is strictly prohibited with the organization for connecting its IT infrastructure and related devices and equipment.
However, in order for embracing modern technologies, machineries and automation in the shipbuilding processes, Industry 4.0 solutions are inevitable. But, because of WiFi restriction most of the solution could not be effectively implemented & utilized to its fullest features.
Innovative solutions may be derived to overcome mentioned challenges where Industry 4.0 & Automation solutions can effectively be implemented in on-premise model (without WiFi and Cloud adoption).
Future Expectation from the prototype / Technology developed-The solution should be able to solve the GRSE challenges w.r.t. implementing Industry 4.0 & Automation in the shipyard processes and ensures compliance to Ministry requirement of WiFi restriction.
