Patterns for Operating and Interacting with Digital Twins
摘要
Digital twins, increasingly pivotal in simulating and managing complex systems, require efficient patterns for interaction and operation across diverse domains. This paper proposes a set of patterns to address the challenges posed by divergent views and input requirements among stakeholders, operators, and simulation systems. Specifically, the Liaison Management Pattern facilitates mapping and communication between varied perspectives, while the Translator Service Pattern ensures seamless translation of commands and actions across differing simulation models. Additionally, a Measurement Execution Pattern decouples the measurement and analysis processes, enabling enhanced error handling and modularity. The proposed patterns draw on principles from established systems such as Bluesky, control frameworks, and declarative configurations, ensuring adaptability and reliability. These patterns aim to streamline the integration and functionality of digital twins across application domains, improving efficiency and reducing system complexity.
