Development of a Process Digital Twin in Camunda Modeler

Business process modeling is one of the most important steps in managing the lifecycle of a business process. A digital twin of a business process is a virtual model of a business process designed to replicate the behavior of a real business process. The difference between a digital twin and a business process simulation is that the simulation does not require real-time data, while a digital twin is created based on real-time data. A digital twin comprises a physical entity in the real world, a software-based digital counterpart, and the data that links them both. When a created process communicates in real time with IoT devices and adapts its execution based on the information received in real time, this is referred to as a process digital twin. As the field of digital twins becomes increasingly popular, the challenge is to investigate how the process digital twin communicates with IoT devices in real time and updates its execution state.
