Continuum, digital twins and virtual worlds
AIOTI is organising annual event that builds upon five successful editions of AIOTI Signature gatherings. AIOTI Days 2024 will feature the Thematic and Project sessions, Hackathon and the Scientific Conference GIECS, guaranteeing a rich and comprehensive experience for all participants.
At the core of AIOTI Days 2024 is the exploration of how the continuum and digital twins meet virtual worlds in the industrial space, creating a physical-digital virtual continuum.
The concept of the computing continuum refers to a paradigm where computing resources and services seamlessly span a range of devices, from IoT and edge devices and sensors to centralized cloud infrastructure. It envisions a unified and integrated ecosystem where data processing and computation occur across a spectrum of devices, enabling a more efficient and responsive computing environment and digital twin implementation.
The computing continuum is driven by the increasing volume of data generated by IoT and at the edge, the need for real-time processing in certain applications, and the desire to optimise resource usage. As technology evolves, the computing continuum is expected to play a crucial role in shaping the future of computing architectures, IoT and Edge Computing are at the forefront of these developments.
Virtual worlds enable remote operation and monitoring of industrial processes. With the integration of sensors and IoT devices, operators can oversee and control equipment from remote locations, enhancing efficiency and reducing the need for physical presence on-site.
Overall, virtual worlds play a crucial role in improving efficiency, safety, and innovation in the industrial domain by providing realistic simulations, supporting design processes, and enabling better collaboration and decision-making.
