The Digital Twin Consortium® (DTC) today announced a liaison agreement with the International Test and Evaluation Association (ITEA), ) a nonprofit, volunteer-led educational association advancing test and evaluation (T&E) in science, technology, and management.
“We are excited about working with ITEA on using digital twins in Test & Evaluation,” said Dan Isaacs, GM & CTO of the DTC. “Their experience in T&E with government, academia, and industry communities will be very valuable as we work together to accelerate the use of digital twins across industries.”
“ITEA’s members will benefit greatly from our association with DTC, especially as digital capabilities and digital twins permeate system design, development, testing, fielding, and sustainment,” predicted Dr. Michael Barton, ITEA Fellow and Board Chairman.
The two groups have agreed to the following:
- Realizing interoperability by harmonizing technology components and other elements
- Aligning work in Digital Twin Consortium Capabilities and Technology for adoption within vertical domains through proof of value projects and use cases, including:
- Composable and Architectural Frameworks,
- Advanced Capabilities and Technology showcases
- Security and Trustworthiness applications
- Conceptual, informational, structural, and behavioral models
- Enabling technologies such as AR, VR, AI, and other advancements
- Case study development from initial concept through operational analysis
DTC and ITEA will exchange information through regular consultations, seminars, and training development vehicles.
