abstract = {Modern societies nowadays require more and more abstraction efforts to hide the complexity of underlying systems and infrastructures. To this end, the concept of Digital Twin (DT) has recently emerged as a key enabler for the digital transformation of well-established architectures toward their virtual representation, opening to intelligent processing capabilities (e.g., monitoring, simulation, prediction, optimization). Aside from defining DTs to enhance these services, another key paradigm that is noteworthy of attention is the Internet of Things (IoT), enabling data and information collection through heterogeneous textitsmart devices (often equipped with sensors and actuators). Thus, combining DTs and IoT together with the Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) as communication protocol (with its native features), will allow to define scalable and lightweight replicas of real systems, and exploit key features (e.g., service and resource discovery) to provide end users with smart solutions. In this paper, a modelling paradigm for heterogeneous IoT scenarios, based on the definition of a DT for each entity involved in a specific context to be mapped, is detailed. This will allow to textita-priori estimate the behaviour of an IoT ecosystem and provide well-known interaction endpoints to request data from/pushing information to the hidden lower layers of the same ecosystem.},
