Cognitive and Federated Digital Twins



There has been a recent explosion of interest in digital twins, namely data driven virtual replicas that can provide insights about a physical system and support decision making. This project endeavours to investigate and develop architectures for Cognitive Digital Twins, namely twins of intelligent systems that can exhibit a high level of intelligence. The project:

  • Develops a reference architecture and a system implementation of Intelligent Digital Twins for Intelligent Systems
  • Investigates the concept of Federated Digital Twins and explores architectures and cooperation algorithms
