The Overview of Digital Twins in Industry 4.0: Managing the Whole Ecosystem
Open accessAbstract
Industry 4.0 aims in renewing processes using available technologies such as robots and other AI techniques implemented in IoT, drones, digital twins and clouds. This metamorphose impacts the whole industry ecosystems including people, information processing and business models. In this context, the accumulated knowledge and know-how can be reused but has also to evolve. This paper focus on the role of digital twins in transforming industrial ecosystems and discuss also the environmental impact.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
