New economic models are needed in order to reduce material inputs and waste generation leveraging on ecodesign, recycling and reusing of products, new business models, and new technologies. Internet-of-Things and artificial intelligence can support the circular economy paradigm, through the development of a marketplace for connecting buyers and sellers of manufacturing services, raw materials and products toward building global supply chains. The core component of this marketplace is a novel, agent-based, brokering module that will apply both syntactic and semantic matching in terms of manufacturing capabilities, in order to find the best possible supplier to fulfill a request for a service, raw materials or products involved in the supply chain UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/49345/1/63309.pdf UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/49345/1/63309.pdf UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/70674 ER -
