• Develop a Federated Digital Twin (FDT) framework to interconnect multiple cultural heritage sites for
  real-time collaboration, monitoring, and decision-making.
• Enhance the preservation and management of heritage assets through data integration, predictive modelling,
  and simulation across multiple institutions.
• Support adaptive visitor management and emergency evacuation planning by sharing dynamic data
  among interconnected museum digital twins.
• Enable immersive and inclusive access to cultural heritage via XR technologies (VR, AR, XR), promoting both
  in-person and virtual experiences.
• Design sustainable, interoperable,and scalable FDT platforms to ensure long-term preservation and
  cross-institutional collaboration.
• Strengthen international partnerships and knowledge exchange among museums, universities, and cultural
  organizations through a shared digital ecosystem.

The Federated Digital Twin (FDT) represents an advanced evolution of digital twin technology, enabling interconnected and collaborative digital ecosystems among multiple cultural heritage sites. Each individual museum operates its own digital twin to monitor visitor dynamics, environmental conditions, and preservation status. These local twins are then linked through a federated architecture, allowing secure data exchange, predictive simulation, and joint decision-making without compromising institutional autonomy. Thisfederated approach empowers cultural institutions to collaboratively simulateand manage complex scenarios such as visitor flow optimization, safety evacuation planning, and environmental risk assessment across multiple sites.By integratingAI-driven predictive analytics andXR technologies (VR/AR), FDT supports immersive exploration, real-time monitoring, andproactive preservation strategies. The framework enhances accessibility,promotes sustainable cultural heritage management, and fosters innovationthrough shared intelligence and data-driven collaboration.
