Abstract
A machine monitoring method preferably includes receiving packets, such as packets supplied to a physical machine, virtually simulating physical machine operation, and analyzing the virtual outputs of the virtual simulation. Virtually simulating physical machine operation is preferably performed based on the received packets, such as using a digital duplicate of the physical machine. Analyzing the virtual outputs can include, for example, determining simulated states of one or more aspects, such as physical components, of the physical machine, and/or determining that one or more events associated with physical machine operation have occurred. The method can optionally include, for example, transmitting the analysis results to a remote device, determining the digital duplicate of the physical machine, determining an analysis model for the virtual outputs of the digital duplicate, determining digital component modules, and/or determining digital analysis modules.
