Bio

Mostafa is completing his PhD in Computer Science at the University of Groningen, where his research focuses on the ECiDA (Evolutionary Changes in Data Analysis) project. He is also the founder and CEO of CAIDEL (Continuous AI Delivery), a company built to bring ECiDA into practice and help operationalize AI projects more effectively.

His expertise lies at the intersection of cloud-native development and machine learning, with a strong emphasis on MLOps. Alongside his academic work, Mostafa has led teams in delivering distributed big data solutions across sectors such as water distribution, banking, insurance, and automotive. His deep knowledge of distributed systems allows him to bridge the gap between academic theory and real-world application.

    Abstract

    Conventional digital twins (DT) for critical infrastructures are widely used to model and simulate the system's state. But fundamental environment changes bring challenges for DT adaptation to new conditions, leading to a progressively decreasing correspondence of the DT to its physical counterpart. This paper introduces the DiTEC system, a Digital Twin for Evolutionary Changes in Water Distribution Networks (WDN). This framework combines novel techniques, including semantic rule learning, graph neural network-based state estimation, and adaptive model selection, to ensure that changes are adequately detected, processed and the DT is updated to the new state. The DiTEC system is tested on the Dutch Oosterbeek region WDN, with results showing the superiority of the approach compared to traditional methods.
