Consequently, urban planners have a strong interest in digital twin technology, since it provides them with a laboratory for experimenting with data before making far-reaching decisions. Realizing these decisions involves the work of professionals in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) domain who nowadays collaborate via the methodology of building information modeling (BIM). At the same time, the citizen plays an integral role both in the data acquisition phase, while also being a beneficiary of the improved resource management strategies. In this paper, we present a prototype for a “digital energy twin” platform we designed in cooperation with the city of Regensburg. We show how our extensible platform de- sign can satisfy the various requirements of multiple user groups through a series of data processing solutions and visualizations, in- dicating valuable design and implementation guidelines for future projects. In particular, we focus on two example use cases concern- ing building electricity monitoring and BIM. By implementing a flexible data processing architecture we can involve citizens in the data acquisition process, meeting the demands of modern users regarding maximum transparency in the handling of their data.

We present a survey on recent developments regarding algorithmic problems which have applications in wireless systems and WSNs in particular. Focusing on the intersection between WSNs and algorithms, we give an overview of recent results inside this intersection, concerning topics such as routing, interference minimization, latency reduction, localization among others. Progress on solving these problems could be potentially beneficial for the industry as a whole by increasing network throughput, reducing latency or making systems more energy-efficient. We summarize and structure these recent developments and list interesting open problems to be investigated in future works.
