About this book

This book covers the notion of the digital twin, which has the potential to alter the way systems are governed and manufactured. It also addresses the metaverse as an emerging technology with its roots in literature, cross-platform avatars, and artificial intelligence-oriented cybersecurity issues. The untapped potential of the metaverse and digital twins as enabling technologies for the next-generation industries is emphasized in various chapters.
Digital twin technology enables manufacturers to comprehend their products throughout product design better, integrate simulation, tracking, and optimization in real-time, and appropriately analyze operations. Especially for complicated products or systems, testing on a digital twin is more efficient (more accessible, quicker, less error-prone, and less expensive). The product is examined in its virtual version before it is displayed in the actual world. Additionally, the digital twin minimizes operational expenses and increases the longevity of equipment and assets. By prolonging the life of the thing, they represent and enhance its working efficiency; it may minimize operating costs and prospective capital spending. The digital twin idea is becoming a reality as it has begun to be used in several industries, including energy, manufacturing, construction, transportation, aerospace, smart cities, healthcare, cyber security, finance, and agriculture. Academic and industrial experts highlighted the most compelling use cases of digital twins and metaverses and the challenges inherent in their implementation. Readers who want to make more effective systems will find the book useful. Also, people who want to get an idea and vision of how technology will change our lives will benefit from this book.

CALL FOR BOOK CHAPTER 

“Digital Twin Driven Intelligent Systems and Emerging Metaverse”

Introduction
The digital twin concept means realizing a digital copy of a physical entity or an existing process. It includes; the living model of the physical entity; the data coming from sensors, one-to-one comparisons with other entities, and the ability to track that entity in real-time.
Digital twin technology enables manufacturers to

• understand their products better in the product design,
• implement real-time simulation, tracking, and optimization,
• analyze the processes accordingly.

Testing on a digital twin can be more efficient (easier, faster, less error-prone, and cheaper) especially for complex products or systems. The product can be evaluated in its virtual form before it is represented in the physical world.
The digital twin also reduces operating costs and extends the life of equipment and assets. Digital twins add value to the traditional working approaches by improving awareness, optimization in the field used. It can work on changeable conditions for preventive care. It can reduce operating expenses and potential capital expenses by extending the life of the object they represent and optimizing its operating performance.
The digital twin is an important technology, so we aim to publish high-quality research studies as the chapters of the “Digital Twin Driven Intelligent Systems” book.
