Structure and Handling of the Solution Cube
How does an ECO-System emerge?

Using Supply Chain Design as an Example: The First Steps of a Structured Approach
In the first step, relevant (and seemingly relevant) domains are automatically searched on the World Wide Web. For instance, the welding of plastics in housing and apparatus construction. These results are then evaluated by experts.
Here, criteria such as mirror welding or ultrasonic welding are assessed.
This process forms the gray cube.
Since websites do not adhere to a (uniform) standard, additional details are gathered through standardized campaigns. For example, the number of welders could be such a detail.
This step forms the blue cube.
The combination of gray and blue components now creates a Big Data Cube, which operates continuously, 24/7. Experts can query this cube using AI to generate Smart Data from Big Data through processes like MapReduce.
The result is a shortlist, which is handed over to the Solution Workbench (SOLWO).
The ECO-System is now ready for orchestration.
