MoDDiT 2021: 1stInternational Workshop on Model-Driven Engineering for Digital Twins

Abstract

Digital twins (DT) are emerging and gaining attention in several disciplines to support different phases of the system life-cycle such as design-space exploration, runtime adaptation, and predictive maintenance of cyber-physical systems (CPSs). The term DT refers to the capability to clone an actual system into a virtual counterpart, that reflects the important properties of the system for a specific purpose. While benefits of DT have been demonstrated in many domains, their development, operation, and evolution, trigger major challenges. Part of these may be addressed from a Model Driven Engineering (MDE) perspective. MoDDiT'21 aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners in the DTs area to shape the future of systematically designing, engineering, evolving, maintaining, and evaluating DTs.
