*********************************
There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Abstract
Dynamic Decision Making (DDM) requires a series of interdependent decisions to achieve some overall goal while adapting to the results of previous decisions alongside environmental changes. Examples of DDM in application vary from individual predictive maintenance to activity tasking. When making dynamic decisions in a multi-agent scenario, the goal is to minimize uncertainty for future actions by predicting consequences for both the individual and the multi-agent group. Recent developments in Digital Twins show the potential to improve the dynamic decision-making process by providing unique agent state information and predictions to the decision maker. With AIAA’s definition of a digital twin being a virtual representation of a connected physical system, the aspects of computational and physical requirements impact the overall capability (fidelity) and utility (runtime, proximity, latency) of their infusion. The research performed develops a method of evaluating the infusion of Digital Twins in a multi agent DDM architecture with their inherent challenges compares the performance to historically deterministic processes for a relevant aerospace scenario.
