Abstract
New economic systems are needed to decouple resource consumption from wealth. The linear economic approach of “take-make-use-dispose” is not a recipe for success in the long term. Circular production offers a solution to this problem. Our Collaborative Research Center 1574 aims to enable integrated linear and circular production on an industrial scale. To this end, the Collaborative Research Center 1574 investigates how used products and their multiple generations can achieve the vision of the perpetual product. This research involves multiple scientific questions related to production technology, product development and materials technology, ergonomics, robotics, computer science, and knowledge modeling. The Collaborative Research Center 1574 involves eighteen subprojects. Each one studies a dimension of these multiple scientific questions. One of these subprojects, called INF, aims to provide an infrastructure and teach the other subprojects’ researchers how to operate and integrate all the data they produced into a unified knowledge graph. This paper describes the roadmap of the INF subproject, including the ongoing work, future steps, and vision of the INF subproject.
