The factory of the future is digital and relies on integrated, rather than isolated, solutions. The software companies DUALIS GmbH IT Solution (www.dualis-it.de) and iTAC Software AG (www.itacsoftware.com) developed a holistic digitalization approach for greater efficiency, flexibility and quality in manufacturing. In the closed loop model, simulation, APS and MES/MOM are closely interlinked and interact with each other. This means, for example, that manufacturing processes can be optimized end-to-end. At the same time, costs and risks can be minimized.

One element of the holistic digitization approach is the digital twin. Using the 3D simulation platform Visual Components, which is supplied by DUALIS, users can create digital twins of their entire production and simulate material and process flows. This allows systems, components, and processes to be tested before they are used in practice, "what-if" scenarios to be run through and errors to be minimized.

Based on these simulation results, a model for realistic production planning can be generated with the GANTTPLAN advanced planning and scheduling system (APS) from DUALIS. The APS carries out planning across departments and takes the entire value chain into account.

At the same time, the data from the digital twin is transferred directly to iTAC Software AG's iTAC.MOM.Suite manufacturing operations management system. This forms the necessary interface between production and IT systems and enables real-time monitoring of production processes. If the MOM knows the current state, the APS can precisely calculate the future.

This marks the closed loop approach: the real data from the MOM and APS system is sent back to the simulation for continuous optimization of the process flows. Changes in key figures and throughputs can then be viewed and evaluated.

Democracy News Alliance: Fiscal strength doesn't guarantee public goods delivery, US study finds21.10.2026 09:55:20 CEST | Press release

New York/DNA - A newly released study of US state government performance found strong partisan and regional patterns within three pillars of governance: democratic accountability, state capacity and public goods provision. Yet, the US states’ outcomes differ in important ways from international comparisons, as the three governance dimensions show limited correlation, the researchers found.

Grünenthal advances proprietary Nociceptin Receptor (NOP) Agonist into Phase II trial in acute pain20.10.2026 10:17:49 CEST | Press release

Potential first-in-class, selective nociceptin receptor (NOP) agonist that aims to provide safe, effective treatment for moderate to severe acute pain. Following successful Phase I results earlier this year demonstrating an excellent safety profile, the program has now progressed to Phase II. The randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo- and active controlled, 2-part Phase II trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of this novel NOP agonist in patients post bunionectomy surgery. Grünenthal anticipates reporting results in early 2028.

Democracy News Alliance: Elections will determine whether Israel remains the Middle East’s only democracy, new report says16.10.2026 12:58:26 CEST | Press release

Los Angeles/DNA - For the first time since the Hamas attacks of three years ago, Israel is set to go to the polls on October 27 to elect the members of the 26th Knesset. In 2023 the country was in the top group of ‘consolidated democratic states’, according to the 2026 Berggruen Governance Index (BGI), just as it had been in 2000. However, according to a new report from governance experts, the wars unleashed on multiple fronts in rapid succession following the Hamas attacks launched from Gaza have changed Israel politically, economically, and socially.

S&D Conference on Quality Jobs: Europe must protect workers through the digital transition16.10.2026 08:58:12 CEST | Press release

Brussels – The Socialists and Democrats (S&D) Group in the European Parliament is stepping up political pressure for an ambitious European framework for quality jobs. At the “Quality Jobs for All” conference in Brussels on 14 October, the impact of artificial intelligence, digital surveillance, precarious employment conditions and growing work-related stress was at the centre of the debate. The conference took place as the European Commission is expected to present its proposal for a Quality Jobs Act in December 2026. Quality Jobs for All is one of the S&D Group’s six flagship political priorities, set out under their Strategic Turn initiative in recent months. Jobs and the labour markets are changing rapidly, with automation and artificial intelligence able to fundamentally change professions and their inherent activities. At the same time, concerns are growing about job cuts, wage pressure, social exclusion and the loss of workers’ voices at work. Experts at the conference have warne
