The final report from the AIOTI Workshop on Semantic Interoperability for Digital Twins, held on 5–6 February 2025 and hosted by ERCIM in Sophia Antipolis, is now available online.
This comprehensive document captures key discussions, recommendations, and insights from leading experts on enabling semantic interoperability in industrial and environmental digital twin systems. The workshop, supported by Inria and the Horizon Europe projects Nephele and SmartEdge, emphasized practical solutions, best practices, and emerging tools in the field.
A new position paper created by an ERCIM task group highlights the crucial role of software technology, development, and maintenance in securing Europe’s economic prosperity. The document calls for greater investment and attention to this often-overlooked area, stressing its foundational importance across industries and innovation.
