In anticipation of Industry 4.0's significant impact on future maintenance systems, Augmented Reality (AR) emerges as a key technology. Even though AR has proven to be mature and applicable in maintenance practices, its practical implementation and challenges faced by organizations remain understudied. The integration of AR into organizational syst...

Today’s perplexing maintenance operations and rapid technology development require an understanding of the complex working environment and processing of dynamic and real-time information. However, the environment complexity and an exponential increase in data volume create new challenges and demands and hence make troubleshooting extremely difficul...

In the last few decades, several initiatives and approaches are set up to support maintenance procedures for the railway industry in adopting the principles of Industry 4.0. Contextualized maintenance technologies such as Augmented Reality (AR) overlay can integrate virtual information on physical objects to improve decision-making and action-takin...

The railway industry is moving towards a complex socio-technological system that relies on computer control and human-machine interfaces. Digitization and convergence of information technology (IT) with operational technology (OT) becomes increasingly important. Therefore, enabling innovations, lowering costs, increasing safety systems, enhancing p...
