The use of dynamic digital twins in the cyber-physical systems design

The article considers an approach to the construction of complex distributed, implemented on the platforms of fog and edge computing, cyber-physical systems with a high level of architectural dynamics. The approach is based on the use of dynamic digital twins. The models are kept in actual state by processing the flow of events coming in the form of logs. A reference architecture of a dynamic runtime digital twin is proposed. The graph based model used by the dynamic digital twin is described. The described approach is focused on the use in large-scale distributed systems for various purposes, built on IoT and IIoT platforms, and may be of interest to specialists engaged in research and development in the field with a high level of architectural variability.
