ProcessMiner Chief Financial Officer, Tom Tulloch, sits down with Helio Samora, Founder and Managing Director of I-IoT Solutions to talk "Digitizing Manufacturing Operations: Strategy or Survival?"

In this ProcessMiner University podcast, listen in as Doug Woods, President of the Association for Manufacturing Technology (AMT) shares with Tom Tulloch, ProcessMiner CCO, his thoughts on how to get more value and ROI from your factory data.

Hear how manufacturers are leveraging data to improve operations, what technologies manufacturers are investing in that seem to be delivering the most value or highest return on investment, along with advice on how to begin the digital transformation journey.

With the rise of cloud computing, it’s becoming much less expensive, faster and easier to deploy software solutions, and that includes artificial intelligence. Given this fact, and given the rapid pace of technology adoption in manufacturing, Doug will give his predictions on if we will witness a lot of M&A activity in IoT and AI before interest rates go any higher, and what manufacturing will look like in five years.

In this ProcessMiner University podcast, learn about process monitoring approaches driving industry 4.0, limitations of standard process monitoring approaches (industry 3.0), and why data is the major difference between industry 3.0 and industry 4.0.

Hear from industry experts Dr. Kamran Paynabar, CSO and co-founder, ProcessMiner, and Dr. Bill Woodall, Professor Emeritus, Statistics, Virginia Tech.

Dr. Paynabar is a Fouts Family Career Professor and Associate Professor in the H. Milton Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering at Georgia Tech.

Dr. Woodall is also a Fellow of the American Statistical Association, a Fellow of the American Society for Quality, and an elected member of the International Statistical Institute.

In this ProcessMiner University podcast episode, Tom Tulloch chats with Dr. Chitta Ranjan, Director of Science at ProcessMiner, about his early life and education, what inspired him to write his book, "Understanding Deep Learning - Application in Rare Event Prediction," and the role deep learning plays in the evolution of artificial intelligence.

Those who know Dr. Ranjan, know he has a keen ability to take complex ideas and simplify them for all to understand... something he talks about during this session.

Fun fact: Throughout his experience writing this book, Dr. Ranjan became an unexpected expert chef, which he also delves into during this talk.

Listeners will walk away feeling inspired, motivated to learn something new, and maybe a little hungry.
