CNet starts new project on digital twin development

Peter Rosengren 28th November 2024

MATISSE is a European research project bringing together 30 partners from seven countries to develop an advanced framework for efficient engineering and validation of industrial systems using Digital Twins.

By integrating Digital Twins with model-based, data-driven, cloud technologies, MATISSE aims to simulate, test, and predict system behaviours, enhancing both productivity and quality of industrial processes.

CNet is responsible for one of the use cases on Digital Twins for critical infrastructures. This will advance the existing work that CNet Group is doing on Digital Twins for bridge structures, machine learning and cloud technologies.

The project is financed by HORIZON-KDT-JU (Key Digital Technologies Joint Undertaking, now Chips Ju) and Vinnova with a total budget of €5,9 million. Apart from Sweden, participating countries inlcude France, Austria, Italy, Portugal, Finland, and Turkey.

IoTBridge develops digital twin for bridge

Peter Rosengren 22nd March 2023

IoTBridge has developed a digital twin that is connected to a bridge monitoring system. The digital twin replicates the health status of the physical bridge and renders the continous sensor measurements from a real bridge, which is located at Bryngeån in the north of Sweden. Check out their demo video. The Building Information Model of the bridge is available in the digital twin making it possible to study individual construction details and how they are affected by train passages.

CNet joins OPC Foundation

Peter Rosengren 26th April 2018

We have been elected as a member of the OPC Foundation. OPC is the interoperability standard for secure and reliable exchange of data in the industrial automation space and in other industries. It is platform independent and ensures the seamless flow of information among devices from multiple vendors. The OPC Foundation is responsible for the development and maintenance of this standard.

The OPC standard is a series of specifications developed by industry vendors, end-users and software developers. These specifications define the interface between Clients and Servers, as well as Servers and Servers, including access to real-time data, monitoring of alarms and events, access to historical data and other applications. With the introduction of service-oriented architectures in manufacturing systems came new challenges in security and data modeling. The OPC Foundation developed the OPC UA (Unified Architecture) specifications to address these needs and at the same time provided a feature-rich technology open-platform architecture that was future-proof, scalable and extensible.

Today the acronym OPC stands for Open Platform Communications.
