  • Enhance Innovation and Agility with Digital Twins Executive Summary
    Enhance innovation and agility with Digital Twins Executive Summary There’s no denying we live in uncertain and rapidly changing times and companies are looking for every opportunity to become more agile. Digital twins is a rapidly emerging technology that delivers to this end. Not to be confused as a mere dashboard, a digital twin is a virtual replica of a physical object, machine part, system, process or entire lifecycle. Digital twin technology enables real-time monitoring and control, the ability to learn with AI and ML, to autonomously update, self-heal, and even improve systems and designs over time. This paper seeks to achieve four objectives. First, to help the reader understand Digital twin technology and its potential. Second, to provide a structured way of looking at the various use cases and applications of this technology. Third, to feature Microsoft partners who have differentiated capabilities that bring digital twin visions to life. Fourth, to discuss the Azure Digital Twin platform and other investments from Microsoft in this space. Digital twin technology is commonly applied to manufacturing across key applications that span manufacturing scenarios/use-cases. The priority scenarios, or use cases, as they relate in Manufacturing are 1) Product, 2) Factory, 3) Supply Chain, and 4) Spaces. The top applications include configuration management, asset management, process control, performance management and simulation modeling. Configuration management tracks bills of materials, around assets as designed, manufactured, configured, and maintained. E.g. For complex & expensive assets like aircrafts this information is typically maintained by tail number. Asset management deals with telemetry of an asset itself and gives insight in to how something is working.

  • Changing Times INVESTING for a NEW WORLD ORDER?
    SUMMER 2018 Changing times INVESTING FOR A NEW WORLD ORDER? alliancetrustsavings.co.uk Welcome to the latest edition of Taking Stock. Changing times If this edition had a theme tune it might be something like Bob Dylan’s 1960s classic The Times They Are A-Changin’. Or at least that’s how it feels to many of us. US protectionism, Trump-style diplomacy, North Korea, Iran, Syria, Russia, China, Brexit, Facebook, Cambridge Analytica. These have all been headline makers for 2018 so far, and some have undoubtedly been implicated in increased market volatility. Around the world the political and economic power of nation states has always ebbed and flowed. Alliances are made and undone. And the fortunes of individual corporations rise and fall. But the question for investors today is, are we just looking at a variation on a theme of business as usual for the world’s established economic power base? Or is something else going on? Are we on the cusp of some more fundamental change in the world economic order? Keeping ahead of the curve Views on this matter because searching for growth necessarily involves looking ahead and understanding where the longer-term opportunities and threats are likely to be. In this edition of Taking Stock our expert contributors explore the potential implications of the developing picture. From how it’s influencing investment decisions today, to steps any investor can take to make the most of their money in uncertain times. As always, I hope you will find it an informative read.
