Madhu Gaganam with Dell Technologies
A quick summary of the points in Industrial Talk’s conversation with Madhu Gaganam at Q1 OMG meeting:
The concept of digital twins has been around for a long time, but it has only recently been gaining traction in the industrial sector.
Digital twins are virtual representations of physical objects or systems that can be used to simulate their behavior and performance.
Digital twins can be used for a variety of purposes, including:
improving operational efficiency
optimizing product design
predicting failures
training operators
The edge is where the data is created, and it is important for digital twins because it allows for real-time decision making.
There are three levels of maturity for digital twins: visualization, digital shadowing, and digital twinning.
In the future, digital twins are likely to become an integral part of the industrial sector.
Mike Bennett with OMG
This conversation is about the importance of standards in technology and how the Object Management Group (OMG) develops and maintains standards. Mike discusses the challenges of keeping up with the pace of technological change and how OMG’s standards process helps to ensure that standards are stable and well-thought-out.
