Java programs will be incorporatedinto the examples to animate the response of physical systems in the open-loop and withfeedback control; the interactive nature of Java will allow the user to change the feedbackgains or other control and system parameters. However, the success of the concept indicates that other applications are possible. Areasonable first step is extending the tutorials for other software packages used for controls,such as Mathematica. However there is no reason to limit the concept to the controls area.We hope to extend the use of the tutorial concept to other useful engineering packages

IntroductionAdvanced manufacturing integrates cutting-edge technologies such as robotics, artificialintelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), and Additive Manufacturing. Advanced manufacturingtechnologies are fundamental to Industry 4.0. Educating students in these areas is crucial todeveloping a workforce capable of innovating and managing highly automated manufacturingsystems. Modern manufacturing systems require interdisciplinary knowledge spanningmechanical, electrical, software, and systems engineering.

In the universityenvironment, OERs have allowed expensive textbooks to be replaced with high-quality onlineresources.
