TWIN-001d — Identify the Twin Realization Type

Go to TWIN-001 — Establish Twin Identity

The DIDO-TE SHALL assign each Twin Realization a Twin Realization Type from the applicable controlled vocabulary.

• [DTE1] U.S. Patent Application US20220237111A1, virtual and physical Twin Node concepts
• [DTE2] Non-Traditional BAA Submission, F17, Twin Nodes Selection
• [DTE9] Distributed Immutable Data Object Reference Architecture (DIDO-RA), Appendix A, Digital Twin

A Twin Identity may be associated with multiple Twin Realizations having different realization characteristics.

A Twin Realization Type distinguishes the kind of realization independently of the realization's implementation, location, or resource identifiers.

The source material explicitly distinguishes virtual and physical or real-world Twin Nodes. A controlled vocabulary preserves those distinctions and supports consistent selection, comparison, Configuration, and Traceability across Twin Realizations.

• Twin Identity
• Twin Realization
• Twin Realization Identifier
• Twin Realization Type
• Twin Node
• Test Definition
• Test Execution

Verification confirms that:

1. Each Twin Realization has a Twin Realization Type.
2. The assigned Twin Realization Type belongs to the applicable controlled vocabulary.
3. An undefined Twin Realization Type is rejected.
4. The controlled vocabulary distinguishes virtual and physical or real-world Twin Realizations.
5. A Test Definition or Test Execution can determine a Twin Realization Type without inspecting implementation-specific resource properties.

Verification includes at least one virtual Twin Realization and one physical or real-world Twin Realization.

This requirement supports registration, selection, Configuration, and comparison of different kinds of Twin Realizations associated with a Twin Identity.

TBD
