Engineering Digital Twin-Enabled Systems

Digital Twin of Manufacturing Systems

The digitization of manufacturing systems is at the crux of the next industrial revolutions. The digital representation of the “Physical Twin,” also known as the “Digital Twin,” will help in maintaining the process quality effectively by allowing easy visualization and incorporation of cognitive capability in the system. In this technical report, we tackle two issues regarding the Digital Twin:...

This connector is named after its designers, Paul Neill of Bell Labs and Carl Concelman of Amphenol. The “B” originally stood for “baby” but was changed to “bayonette” after the TNC connector was introduced to distinguish the bayonet fasteni...

Perspectives in Engineering Web-Enabled Electronic Commerce Systems

Privacy Engineering for Digital Rights Management Systems

Internet-based distribution of mass-market content provides great opportunities for producers, distributors, and consumers, but it may seriously threaten users’ privacy. Some of the paths to loss of privacy are quite familiar (e.g., mining of credit-card data), but some are new or much more serious than they were in earlier distribution regimes. We examine the contributions that digital-rightsm...
