| This section identifies the requirements governing [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:twin_node|Twin Nodes]] used to represent, observe, simulate, reproduce, compare, select, or interact with corresponding [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:n:node|Nodes]] within distributed verification and testing. | This section identifies the requirements governing [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:twin_node|Twin Nodes]] used to represent, observe, simulate, reproduce, compare, select, or interact with corresponding [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:n:node|Nodes]] within distributed verification and testing. |
| |
| Twin Node requirements address the controlled relationship among a logical twin identity, one or more Twin Node realizations, and the corresponding real-world, virtual, simulated, or otherwise represented Node. | Twin Node requirements address the controlled relationship among a [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:twin_identity|Twin Identity]], one or more [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:twin_realization|Twin Realizations]], and the corresponding real-world, virtual, simulated, or otherwise represented Node. |
| |
| The requirements address twin identity, association, [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:configuration|Configuration]], realization selection, state acquisition, synchronization, simulation, comparison, controlled interaction, validation, and [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:traceability|Traceability]]. | The requirements address Twin Identity, association of Twin Realizations, [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:twin_relationship|Twin Relationship]] Configuration, realization selection, access to Twin Realization state, synchronization, simulation, comparison, controlled interaction, and [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:traceability|Traceability]]. |
| |
| A logical twin identity may be associated with more than one Twin Node realization. A Test Execution may therefore select the applicable realization without changing the logical identity represented within the test. | A Twin Identity may be associated with more than one Twin Realization. A [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_execution|Test Execution]] may therefore select a Twin Realization without changing the Twin Identity represented within the test. |
| |
| A Twin Node may receive information from multiple eligible sources. Configuration, communication policies, and applicable Quality of Service controls govern source eligibility and communication behavior without assigning semantic authority to a source solely because the source participates in the communication mechanism. | A Twin Relationship may obtain information from multiple eligible [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:d:data_source|Data Sources]]. [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:configuration|Configuration]], communication parameters, [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:s:source_selection|Source Selection]], and [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:q:qos|Quality of Service]] characteristics govern the use and exchange of that information without assigning semantic authority to a Data Source solely because the source participates in a communication mechanism. |

| The U.S. Patent Application describes virtual and physical Twin Nodes addressed using an identifier shared by one or more other Twin Nodes. It also describes adding or modifying a Twin Node, comparing resulting test results against a baseline, and validating the Twin Node or emulated distributed system when the results correspond. | The U.S. Patent Application describes virtual and physical Twin Nodes addressed using an identifier shared by one or more other Twin Nodes.
