As we move forward, digital twin technologies, along with their enabling technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Internet of Things (IoT), metaverse, and advanced visualization features, will continue to drive digital transformation and innovation across various societal contexts. This book presents a conceptual framework that examines critical perspectives on digital twins across diverse disciplines. It evaluates the contributions of leading thinkers to the broader discourse about digital twins. The introductory chapter provides an overview of the entire book, summarizing all subsequent chapters. Chapter 2 delves into the fundamentals of digital twins, covering theories, definitions, and enabling technologies. Chapters 3 to 10 explore various application areas, including smart cities, manufacturing, healthcare, infrastructure, and supply chain. Chapter 10 specifically focuses on socio-technical aspects related to the design, development, and implementation of digital twins. It emphasizes the significance of digital twins as a public good and identifies opportunities, gaps, and challenges. The final chapter addresses the current and future need for skills in training, education, and awareness, proposing collaborative approaches for industry and academia.Computer networksInternet of thingsComputer Communication NetworksInternet of ThingsComputer networks.Internet of things.Computer Communication Networks.Internet of Things.004.6Sabri Soheil1780107Alexandridis Kostas1780108Lee Newton960106MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910917790603321Digital Twin4303731UNINA05897nam 22006855 450 991072628270332120251009083445.09783031278457(electronic bk.)978303127844010.1007/978-3-031-27845-7(MiAaPQ)EBC30546037(Au-PeEL)EBL30546037(OCoLC)1380358845(DE-He213)978-3-031-27845-7(BIP)088157352(CKB)26711711400041(EXLCZ)992671171140004120230518d2023 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierFinancial Interdependence, Digitalization and Technological Rivalries Perspectives on Future Cooperation and Integration in Sino-American Financial Systems /by René W.H. van der Linden, Piotr Łasak1st ed. 2023.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2023.1 online resource (178 pages)Print version: van der Linden René W.H.

Conclusions and Recommendations.This Palgrave Pivot investigates how the Chinese and United States financial systems are becoming increasingly interdependent, in spite of a simultaneous technological rivalry and ‘decoupling’ between the two nations. The book offers a comparative analysis of Sino-US financial systems before and after the global financial crisis of 2008-2009, demonstrating the deepening integration of China into global financial markets and its move from an indirect bank-based system towards a direct market-oriented system. It discusses the economic and technological competition that has arisen between the US and China, the two largest financial centers based on financial technology, and demonstrates the differences in national interest driving processes of digitalization and FinTech applications. At the same time, the book points to ways in which a market-oriented global financial system and the rapid international growth of financial technology make future cooperation inevitable and necessary. This book places Sino-US financial relations in a broader financial-economic perspective and will be of interest to academics, consultants and students working in banking and finance, international financial markets, comparative economics, monetary theory and Chinese business studies.
