*The 1st International Workshop on Digital Twins for Next Generation
Real-Time IoT Beyond 5G (DT4NG-IoT)*

https://isorc.github.io/2023/workshop.html

*  held in conjunction with the 26th International Symposium On
Real-Time Distributed Computing, IEEE ISORC 2023, Nashville 23-25, 2023.*


Digital twins, which are a virtual representation of real-world physical
entities, have received significant interest from both the research and
industrial communities.

Initially, the concept of twins was introduced by the United States
National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Apollo program in the
1970s, where virtual

replicas of space vehicles on Earth were built to mirror the condition of
the equipment during the mission. Then, the concept of Digital Twin was
introduced to John

Vickers by Michael Grieves in the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) as a
virtual instance (twin) of a physical system.

The main goal of this half day workshop is to address these challenges and
present advanced and innovative tools, design and modeling techniques, and
algorithms for diverse Real-Time Distributed IoT applications and services.
Contributions addressing both theoretical and practical applications,
including, but not limited to, the following topics, are welcome for
submission:

   - *DT as a New Frontiers for Future Networks*
      - Emerging Cloud, Edge, Fog, and Embedded ML for Digital Twin
      - Middleware Technologies for Network Digital Twins

Submission and Publication Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers. Papers
must be written in English and strictly following IEEE style. The *IEEE
conference paper templates* can be found here
<https://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html>.
Papers must be submitted in PDF format via the electronic submission system
through the HotCRP system <https://isorc23workshops.hotcrp.com/>. All
accepted paper will be indexed and published in the IEEE Explore repository.

Two types of submissions are accepted:

   - *Regular Research papers: *contributions should describe original work
   (up to 6 pages including all text, figures, references, and appendices).
   - *Short Papers and position papers: *Research in progress, tools
   presentations, and new ideas (up to 4 pages including all text, figures,
   references, and appendices).

Submitted papers will be evaluated according to their rigor, significance,
originality, technical quality and exposition, by at least three distinct
members of an international program committee. At least one author of each
accepted paper must register and participate in the workshop. Registration
is subject to the terms, conditions, and procedures of the main conference
<https://isorc.github.io/2023/>.
Extended version
Best selected papers based on the review process will be invited to submit
extended versions to the Special Issue of the Elsevier Journal (IF 7.307,
Cite Score 18.7) of Future Generation Computer Systems (FGCS)
