This paper provides a set of proof-of-concept prototype descriptions, based on such IoT exploitation, which aim at gathering real-time data along the manufacturing processes that enables a responsive production management and maintenance, including energy consumption and water usage monitoring at each stage of a production cycle. The presented work takes advantage of the ebbits platform, which provides a middleware infrastructure for integrating industrial sensors, devices and emerging wireless technology in the physical world, transforming them into web services that enable seamless integration into mainstream business system such as MES and ERP.enconference paper
