New technologies are coming together from rivers and streams to form a new technological paradigm. While new technologies such as big data, smart manufacturing and 3D printers are accelerating their adoption and the outline of the third industrial revolution is clearer, the concept of "Industry 4.0" is already coming out. Perhaps it is too late for us to feel such a new one The industrial age is quietly coming.

Recently, the National Informatization Expert Advisory Committee held "2013 China Informatization Process Report" with the theme of "Smart City and Urban Informatization Development" in Beijing. Yang Xueshan, Vice Minister of Industry and Information Technology, combing the process of informatization development , Shared the research experience of the participants with the new hot spot emerging in the current industrial and informational fields.

Information technology has become the force of economic and social transformation

"At present, the development of our country's industrialization and informatization is at a very crucial turning point." Yang Xueshan pointed out that a series of articles, research reports and writings have appeared in the industrial field in about two years. These articles and research reports Put forward different views or use different concepts with the writings. For example, a series of concepts such as the third industrial revolution, the fourth industrial revolution, the fifth industrial revolution, the Internet of Things and the manufacturing industry, and smart manufacturing have been put forth one after another. For example, in April of this year, Germany published a research report on "Industry 4.0" that gave a very profound description of the new direction of industrial transformation.

Generally speaking, all these works, articles and research reports are saying that the development of industry is entering a new phase, no matter whether this stage is called the third industrial revolution, the fourth industrial revolution, the fifth industrial revolution or the "industrial 4.0 ', all of which point to a new way of development in which information technology and industrial manufacturing technologies are closely linked, "concluded Yang.

Similarly, from the information technology, information industry point of view, there are a series of new concepts put forward. Yang Xueshan that these new concepts can be summarized into six, that is, we are familiar with broadband, mobile Internet, Internet of things, big data, cloud computing, smart city.

Yang Xue-shan said that the six concepts, from the technical, industrial and application point of view, the interpretation of information technology is entering a new stage of development. The symbol of this new phase is that we no longer seek where information technology is used but rather explore how information technology can be integrated into the management of technology and industry in the process of economic and social development and the modernization of the masses. Methods to make information technology become the main driving force for the transformation of economic and social development.

The new platform to promote the industry to a new height

"The landmark concept of this transition should be the profound integration of the two cultures and the development of economic and social transformation." Yang Xueshan, after elaborating on the transformation of information technology in promoting economic and social development, pointed out that the essence of this landmark concept can be understood as two points: The one point is that we truly, in a unified sense, make the resources of materials, energy and information a goal, follow a core, and jointly provide a new impetus to the economic and social development. The second point Is a new concept --- "Cyber-PhysicalSystems" (CPS, information physics system) as a framework for our economic development to build a new platform, this new platform will be the continuous formation of our industrial revolution, to promote the economy The rapid development of the platform to a new level, a new stage and a new height.

Turning to the understanding of the new platform, Yang Xue-shan analyzed that the economic and social development is in fact closely related to the model of a synergistic platform that can bring together social resources. Recalling the history of hundreds of millions of mankind and the industrial revolution for 300 years, we can see that the progress of mankind has taken a new heights in the process of expanding and deepening such a platform.

"And this time we are going to take a new height, a new platform that combines cyberspace with physical space, which is CPS." When we actually think of CPS as a system and become a Platform, we can truly realize the deepening of the integration of information, materials and energy resources in order to enable our economy and society to have a broader platform for development.

Still need to handle the two major relations

In the face of such a turning point, it is absolutely necessary to handle a series of major relationships. Among them, how to handle the relationship between innovation and inheritance as well as long-term goals and current actions is the two pairs of relations that Yang Xueshan highlights.

On the relationship between innovation and inheritance, Yang Xue-shan believes that no matter from the industrial revolution of the third industrial revolution, "Industry 4.0" or the six new concepts summarized from the direction of information technology and information, we must Link the new and the old, the history, the present and the tomorrow completely. That is to say, both "Industry 4.0" and the six new concepts are the result of the uninterrupted development of history and the platform of technology and knowledge owned by all humankind in the past.

Therefore, we should say new concepts and new concepts on the basis of the original concepts instead of subverting other concepts and other industries when a new concept is proposed. In other words, the third industrial revolution is not a subversion of the second industrial revolution, but a further progress on all the traditions of the past.

"Especially in the field of information, there is often a new concept coming out and putting everything into this new concept. Trying to separate the 'basket' from the past, this idea and mentality is very important for informationization , The development of industrialization and the integration of the two cultures are all very harmful. "Yang Xueshan stressed that we must innovate if we want to develop, but we must attach equal importance to inheritance, inheritance and innovation as two wheels, both indispensable.

At present, we are at a turning point in the historical development. From this turning point, we are going to "dawn" and to "noon". However, it will take a long time before we can fully display the picture of the industry.

Yang Xue-shan said that historic changes have never been able to be demonstrated very clearly in a very short period of time. Today we can see the general direction, see the general trend, can generally describe the picture of the future, but the exact image and the exact path can not be clearly described today. Therefore, it is necessary for us today to clearly draw out a picture consistent with the development direction and in accordance with the law, and to make active and steady actions.

Yang Xueshan stressed: Whether we are in different fields of economic and social development or different opportunities we face, we must all see that they all have different basis for development and preconditions for development. "We should deeply root our actions today on such a foundation and solve the key problems faced by various fields, entities and places with new models and new laws in order to achieve our immediate development goals."
