“…management, employees, designers, operators, maintenance personnel, etc.) to utilize digital twins to monitor and control assets and systems in real time, enabling guidance of operations (Papanagnou, 2020, Bao et al, 2019, Zhuang et al, 2018Weyer et al, 2016). For example, management can leverage digital twins' guidance features by remotely monitoring and controlling implementation of strategies using real-time performance measures data and IoT-enabled dashboards (Aheleroff et al, 2020).…”

PurposeThis study examines the connection between different digital-twin characteristics and organizational control. Specifically, the study aims to examine whether the digital-twin characteristics exploration, guidance and gamification will affect formal and social control.Design/methodology/approachThe study is based on an analysis of survey results from 139 respondents comprising applied university students who use digital twins.FindingsThe results offer an interesting contribution to the literature. The authors consider the digital-twin characteristics exploration, guidance and gamification and investigate their contribution to two types of organizational controls: formal and social. The results show that two characteristics, exploration and gamification, affect the extent to which digital twins can be utilized for social control. Exploration and guidance’s role is significant concerning the extent to which digital twins can be utilized for formal control.Originality/valueThis study contributes to literature by considering multiple digital-twin characteristics and their contribution to two different control outcomes. First, it diverges from previous technical-oriented research by investigating digital twins in a human context. Second, the study is the first to examine digital twins’ effects from an organizational control perspective systematically.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) adoption along with the recent emergence of Internet of Things (IoT) applications provides many unique knowledge and decision-making abilities all through the built environment’s life cycle. The ability to connect online sensors utilized in surroundings in real time has led to the definition of the Digital Twin (DT) of the Building Design. The goal of Digital Twins is to synchronize the physical world with a virtual platform for seamless management and control of the construction process, infrastructure solutions, environmental monitoring, and other life span processes within building design. Most of the researchers focused on either BIM or DT in the construction of building application. In this research work, a novel hybrid model of Digital Twin-Building Information Modeling (DT-BIM) is proposed. This model does the process of identifying the shortage of resources, analyzing requirement, performing decision, dispatching the resources, and updating all the process in the database with the support of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Hence, this hybrid model provides improved results when compared to the implementation of the individual technology to the same application. The study results revealed that these hybrid technologies help in assisting the dispatch systems in the construction projects to a greater extent.

“…Thanks to digital replicas of a real-world object an effective feedback can be collected. Some articles present how the Digital Twin concept are applied to the production plans, where actual data are used to analyses how the DTs can be used to review activities and improve productivity [34], [35]. Other examined a model that enables work improvement support by creating analog-type elements and by reconciling a real factory with its virtual one instead of aiming for higher productivity [36].…”

Modern systems supporting production processes are undergoing significant changes, which involve challenges related to the digitization of processes. Decision making is becoming more and more dependent on the analysis of various types of data and information from the production process. The 4th Industrial Revolution forces the transition towards new technologies, innovation and digital models also in manufacturing operations. One of the phenomena of Industry 4.0 is Digital Twin, whereby it is possible to analyze and simulate real-time different production variants from the real environment without directly interfering with the actual production process. Thanks to the use of Digital Twin, it is possible to optimize manufacturing procedures, detect physical problems faster and make a decision about a process change with smaller risks to achieve a new higher level of productivity. This paper will introduce the theoretical aspects connected with Digital Twin-driven approach in smart manufacturing and will emphasize its potential towards the application of new-generation information technologies in industry and manufacturing. The systematic literature research will be focused on the analysis of different application areas of Digital Twin in the modern industry. This paper will specify and highlight how manufacturing processes can benefit from the use of the Digital Twin concept.
