NodeRED nodes for modeling Digital Twins

A set of NodeRED nodes for modeling Digital Twins with semantics.

More information can be found here: A methodology for creating semantic digital twin models supported by knowledge graphs

Simple example

Nodes

• dt-asset: represents an observable asset from the real world. It can be composed by other assets.
• dt-event: events can happen internally or externally and can be used to trigger actions or change properties.
• dt-action: an asset can have actuation methods such as open(), close()...
• dt-property: used to define a property of an asset (temperature, humidity...)
• dt-relation: it can be used to (semantically) represent the relation between two nodes.
• dt-graph: it watches the model and creates/updates a knowledge graph everytime the diagram is deployed.
