Abstract
In an approach to digital twin enabled asset performance and upgrade management, upcoming changes for assets are received, where the upcoming changes include at least one of hardware requirements, firmware requirements, software requirements, hardware upgrades, firmware upgrades, and software upgrades. The upcoming changes for the assets are stored into repositories, where the appropriate repository is determined using topic modeling. The digital twins are updated, where each digital twin is continuously updated with the upcoming changes. Continued usage metrics are calculated for each asset based on the output of the digital twins, where the continued usage metrics are specific to each asset. A report is created based on the upcoming changes and the continued usage metrics, where the report includes at least one of hardware dependencies, firmware dependencies, software dependencies, and upgrade dependencies.
