Beyond IoT: Digital Twins and Cyber-Physical Systems
Digital twins originated from the special requirements of a few operation-critical systems in industrial manufacturing and automation. They aim at providing a comprehensive and accurate informational/numerical replica of some advanced apparatus, to optimize its operation and maintenance, especially when the original physical is not available for direct monitoring and physical inspection, like a satellite. From its origin in the aerospace industry, the digital twin concept has evolved and widened, to integrate remote sensing and actuation capabilities through the IoT.
