Evolution at the Core of Digital Twin EngineeringVision
This program is tentative and subject to change.
Engineering Digital Twins (EDT) presents a multifaceted challenge that extends beyond managing the lifecycle of a Digital Twin (DT) to include its continuous, dynamic interaction with the lifecycle of the actual object, system, or process it represents, referred to as the Actual Twin (AT). The relationship between the life cycles of these two systems necessitates a rethinking of the software development lifecycle of DTs. This vision paper examines the deeply intertwined lifecycles of DTs and the AT they are associated with, arguing that effective methods for EDT must embrace the mutual and adaptive evolution of both over time. We propose placing evolution at the core of the engineering of DTs. We outline emerging research directions to manage the evolution of DTs, and present a road map for addressing the associated challenges and opportunities. This paper serves as a call to action for the EDT community to adopt evolution as a crucial factor and core principle in DT engineering.
