• Abstract summary: Digital twins (DTs) are virtual representations of physical objects or processes that can collect information from the real environment to represent, validate, and replicate the physical twin's present and future behavior. DTs are becoming increasingly prevalent in a variety of fields, including manufacturing, automobiles, medicine, smart cities, and other related areas. We addressed DTs and their essential characteristics, emphasized on accurate data collection, real-time analytics, and efficient simulation capabilities, while highlighting their role in enhancing performance and reliability.

• Abstract: Digital Twins (DTs) are virtual representations of physical objects or processes that can collect information from the real environment to represent, validate, and replicate the physical twin's present and future behavior. The DTs are becoming increasingly prevalent in a variety of fields, including manufacturing, automobiles, medicine, smart cities, and other related areas. In this paper, we presented a systematic reviews on DTs in the autonomous vehicular industry. We addressed DTs and their essential characteristics, emphasized on accurate data collection, real-time analytics, and efficient simulation capabilities, while highlighting their role in enhancing performance and reliability. Next, we explored the technical challenges and central technologies of DTs. We illustrated the comparison analysis of different methodologies that have been used for autonomous vehicles in smart cities. Finally, we addressed the application challenges and limitations of DTs in the autonomous vehicular industry.

  The concept of Digital Twin (DT) is increasingly applied to systems on different levels of abstraction across domains. The definition of DT is unclear, neither is there a clear pathway to develop DT to fully realise its capacities. We propose a DT maturity matrix, based on which we propose a model-based DT development methodology.

  The next generation of machine learning systems must be adept at perceiving and interacting with the physical world. sensory data from motion, thermal, geolocation, depth, wireless signals, video, and audio are increasingly used to model the states of physical environments. Existing efforts are often specialized to a single sensory modality or prediction task. This paper proposes MultiIoT, the most expansive and unified IoT benchmark to date, encompassing over 1.15 million samples from 12 modalities and 8 real-world tasks.
