Abstract:
Digital twins have been an increasingly successful technology for engineering complex industrial and medical systems. These systems are typically characterized by a proprietary architectural approach and very elaborate costs. But, the field of application for digital twins is much broader. In order to foster a widespread use of digital twins for small to mediumsized systems, a concise definition, comprehensible and easily remembered use cases as well as a standardized construction principles for such twins will be necessary. In a literature study, the relevant concepts for digital twins have been reviewed and the gained insights applied to a multi-year experiment in the smart home / health area. We present a detailed digital twin engineering pattern for small and medium-size systems and discuss the challenges for a broader dissemination.
