 However, in the last decade, multicore computing paradigms and the advent of GPU computing has finally enabled computation needed to run digital twins.
 As a result, digital twins have become more relevant today than 10 years ago~\cite{DBLP:conf/cirp/TAO2018169}.

 Predictive modelling uses statistics to predict outcomes.
 When deployed commercially, for example in datacenters, predictive modelling is often referred to as predictive analytics~\cite{Wikipedia:PredictiveModelling}.
 Almost any statistical model can be used for prediction purposes, but nowadays predictive analysis is synonymous with machine learning.
