BOSTON, MA, Feb. 17, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Digital Twin Consortium® and the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) have entered into a liaison agreement to create and develop digital twin enabling technologies. The goal is to accelerate the adoption and monetization of digital twins in the aerospace community.
Both have agreed to the following:
- Collaborating on standards requirements
- Realizing interoperability by harmonizing technology components and other elements
- Aligning work in Digital Twin Consortium horizontal domains for adoption within vertical environments and use cases, proof of concepts, and programs, including:
- Technology, terminology, and taxonomy
- Security and trustworthiness
- Conceptual, informational, structural, and behavioral models
- Enabling technologies such as simulation and AI
- Case study development from initial concept through operational analysis
- Open source for reference implementations
"We are excited about working with AIAA and its vast network of aerospace professionals," said Dan Isaacs, CTO, Digital Twin Consortium. "Through our collaboration, we will advance the use of digital twins in aerospace industries."
"AIAA is pleased to work with the Digital Twin Consortium," said Mat French, Chair of the AIAA Digital Engineering Integration Committee and Staff System Engineer and Architect at Northrop Grumman.
