    Abstract
    Globalization is one of the widely considered factors in today's manufacturing industries. This paradigm may be adopted for new technologies such as additive manufacturing. Additive manufacturing has been identified as an innovative manufacturing technology in recent years. The characteristics of this manufacturing technology, especially its support for quick design to manufacturing, have dominated it as an efficient generation of manufacturing techniques for today's global manufacturing paradigm. This article discusses the requirements and necessities of additive manufacturing with respect to a globalized perspective. Considering the two major requirements studied as integration of... 

    A platform for optimisation in distributed manufacturing enterprises based on cloud manufacturing paradigm

    , Article International Journal of Computer Integrated Manufacturing ; Vol. 27, Issue 11 , 2 November , 2014 , pp. 1031-1054 ; ISSN: 0951192X Fatahi Valilai, O ; Houshmand, M ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    The synergy of fundamental factors like changes in governmental policies, global expansions of the manufacturing industries and improvements in technology related to reliability of manufacturing information flow have created the global manufacturing revolution in the first years of the twenty-first century. Although the concept of global manufacturing enterprise has created benefits and opportunities for todays manufacturing enterprises, it has enforced enterprises to endure costs to adopt the global manufacturing solutions. Besides, considering the researches aimed to enable the global manufacturing paradigm, there is still a need for efficient solutions to fulfil the global product...
