Allowing challenge owners to imagine future scenarios via ‘what-if’ analysis is key to ensuring good decision making processes. Imagining a range of scenarios, evaluating the outputs and making an informed decision delivers better outcomes for all.

Digital twins are one of the most promising tools in this area. Combining both automated simulation and control, they have rapidly gained traction amongst the manufacturing, aeronautical and energy sectors for their ability to monitor and react to rapidly changing scenarios with little to no margin for error. The machine-readable data within knowledge graphs allows for inferrence & reasoning.

The ability of knowledge graphs to capture complex concepts and their associated relationships means that they are perfectly suited to support connected digital twins across a range of industries. CMCL’s deep experience delivering cross-sector interoperability means we are well placed to support the development of connected digital twins. Leveraging The World Avatar™, CMCL has developed a ‘base world’. This is a collection of existing datasets describing the world as it exists in real-time. By applying models to this, ‘parallel world’ scenarios can be created, providing insights into possible futures.
