“…Together, the Internet of Things and cyberphysical systems integrate the physical and virtual worlds, using devices such as sensors, actuators, mobile devices, and smart gateways for interoperability, transparency, decentralized decision-making, real-time communication, and self-optimization (Dal Forno et al, 2021;Park et al, 2020). Further, technology such as artificial intelligence, simulation, machine learning, and robotics are adopted in production order scheduling, marker making, line balancing, machine layout designing, detecting defects, and inspecting comfort of garments (Abd Jelil, 2018). Techniques such as neural networks, genetic algorithms, and fuzzy logic enable better reasoning, learning, problem-solving, decisionmaking, and communication to improve efficiency and productivity in manufacturing (Noor et al, 2021).…”
