Progress:

• This week involved an introduction to the ORBIT and COSMOS content, where the Digital Twin project will be implemented. Time was spent reviewing basic command line interface (CLI) commands and working within the provided image. Last year’s project code was downloaded onto the image and explored to better understand its structure. These initial steps are helping to build a solid foundation for contributing to the ongoing work of the Digital Twin project.

Progress:

• By using the code developed by the previous project intern, we successfully ran the files in Visual Studio Code and generated several plots to visualize when energy-saving modes are activated or inactive.

Week 4:

Progress:

• This week, we were able to create informative visuals from a specific scenario from the previous year's work. This diagram made it simple to understand how exactly the scenario worked and how the code functioned for the scenario. We were also able to recreate specific plots that better helped us understand the outcomes of different scenarios. We specifically analyzed the Total Network Power Consumption and System Energy Efficiency plots to get a better understanding of the scenarios.
