WP2.A Automatic tuning, analysis, and optimization of systems using digital twins

The task aims at realizing an integrated, end-to-end, infrastructure for the digitalization and virtualization of the operational life cycle of one or more devices used in Space industry, including methodologies and tools allocated to the on-board SW platform production process. 

Through the realization of digital twins, several goals can be achieved like predictive maintenance, virtual risk assessment and training processes both for the production and operational teams. Furthermore this digital infrastructure can simplify the access to space manufacturing to new actors by removing current barriers related to expensive (procurement, maintenance and know-how) facilities and to the complexity of the quality assurance process.

The digital twin could be shared or licensed for use to new partner that are in this way easily introduced to the Space SW industry processes. Moreover, a digital virtualization infrastructure comprehending a platform simulator, permits to decouple the SW production process from the HW production manufacturing time anticipating, inside the platform overall planning, possible HW SW integration issues.
