 +====== Twin Identifier ======
  
 +[[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:start|Go up to Terms and Definitions]]
 +
 +===== Discussion =====
 +
 +A Twin Identifier identifies a [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:twin_identity|Twin Identity]] independently of the individual [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:twin_realization|Twin Realizations]] associated with it.
 +
 +The Twin Identifier provides a stable reference for Configuration, [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_definition|Test Definitions]], [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_execution|Test Executions]], comparison, Validation, Evidence, and [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:traceability|Traceability]] involving the logical twin.
 +
 +A Twin Identifier remains distinct from implementation-specific identifiers such as container identifiers, process identifiers, host names, network addresses, DDS entity identifiers, or identifiers assigned to individual Twin Realizations.
 +
 +===== Definition =====
 +
 +//an identifier assigned to a [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:twin_identity|Twin Identity]]//
 +
 +===== Source =====
 +
 +  * [[private:07-dido-te:99-annexes:annex-b-references:dte-001|[DTE1] U.S. Patent Application US20220237111A1]], Twin Node concepts and identifiers shared among Twin Nodes
 +  * DIDO-TE normalization of the source concept
 +
 +===== Note =====
 +
 +Multiple Twin Realizations associated with the same Twin Identity reference the same Twin Identifier.
 +
 +A Twin Identifier identifies the logical twin rather than a particular realization of that twin.
 +
 +The representation, encoding, and implementation mechanism used for a Twin Identifier belong to the applicable logical or physical model rather than to the conceptual definition.
 +
 +===== Example =====
 +
 +The Twin Identifier ''T-4711'' identifies a logical twin. A virtual Twin Realization and a real-world Twin Realization both reference ''T-4711'' while retaining separate realization identifiers.
