UPCOMING COLLOQUIUM
The Future of Digital Twinning: Technological Challenges and Implications
for National Security
|
|
Developments in computing power, artificial intelligence, and big data are enabling replication of large complex systems with greater fidelity and predictive power.
This includes the replication of social systems and cities, such as the Virtual Singapore project, to support urban planning, public safety, and enhanced security measures.
Join the National Academies for a one-day unclassified virtual
colloquium on
February 15 from 11am-4pm ET to explore
how digital twins are used today, future applications, and implications for national security. Colloquium presenters, including keynote speaker Dr. Michael Grieves, will address topics such as the applications of digital twins to the fields of behavioral
anticipation, predictive analytics, advanced modeling and simulation, critical infrastructure systems, societal and city management, military systems, and cyber security.
