A Digital Twin Prototype for Product Lifecycle Data Management

The rapid progress in IoT- and CPS-enabled devices and their convergence in the Connected and Automated Mobility (CAM) sector have changed information and knowledge sharing and collaboration perspectives between multiple stakeholders. This paper presents an approach to data integration and analytics created to enhance IoT- and CPS-based Product Lifecycle Data Management (PLCDM) by adopting the concept of Digital Twins. The paper presents the current implementation of the Digital Twin prototype and its services for enhancing smart vehicle's performances, including security and safety features.
