An interdisciplinary Digital Twin Engine for science

interTwin aims at designing and building a prototype of an interdisciplinary digital twin engine (DTE), an open-source platform based on open standards that offers the capability to integrate with application-specific digital twins. Its functional specifications and implementation are based on a co-designed interoperability framework and conceptual model of a digital twin for research – the DTE blueprint architecture. The ambition of interTwin is to create consensus on a common approach to the implementation of digital twins that is applicable across the whole spectrum of scientific disciplines that will facilitate developments and interoperability across different DTs.
