EDTconf 2025 : 2nd International Conference on Engineering Digital Twins

===================================================================
Conference Scope
===================================================================
Digital Twins (DTs) have emerged as a key approach to understand,
monitor, and improve systems across various domains including
agriculture, automotive, avionics, construction, healthcare,
manufacturing, and smart cities.

DT development is inherently multi-disciplinary and requires the
integration of data, models, simulation, software engineering,
and domain knowledge. Despite increasing adoption, DT development
is still often ad hoc, lacking systematic methods and tools.

EDTconf 2025 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners
from academia and industry to shape the future of engineering DTs
in a systematic, scalable, and principled way.

===================================================================
Topics
===================================================================
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

− Modeling concepts and languages, methods, and tools for
developing DTs
− AI for DTs/DTs for AI
− DevOps for DTs/DTs for DevOps
− Quality assurance for and evaluation of DTs
− DT modeling, simulation, and co-simulation of CPS
− Deployment and operation of DTs
− Model consistency, management, and evolution of engineering
models and DT models
− DTs for dynamic (re)configuration and optimization
− Evolution and compositionality of DTs
− Uncertainty and fidelity in DTs
− DT reliability, trust, and security
− Architectural patterns for DTs
− Virtual commissioning based on DTs
− DTs for continuous learning and improvement
− Combining models and data in DTs
− Case studies, experience reports, comparisons in various
application domains
− Empirical studies of DT development and use
− Teaching and education of DT skills
