Towards a feedback design process using Digital Thread

Digital Thread is a data-driven architecture that links together information generated from across the product lifecycle. Though Digital Thread is gaining traction as a digital communication framework to streamline design, manufacturing, and operational processes in order to more efficiently design, build and maintain engineering products, a principled and unified formulation of the data-driven design problem using Digital Thread remains absent in the literature. Prior work on Digital Thread has targeted enterprise level risk/value assessments, addressing upcoming challenges and future visions, and establishing requirements from the vantage point of model-based systems engineering, product lifecycle management, and additive manufacturing. However, such a formulation must account for the fact that the design process is highly iterative and not all information is available at once.
