Particularly, the malicious behavior requires a more accurate attention. This paper discusses the challenges related to the evaluation of software smart agents and proposes a first solution leveraging the monitoring facilities for a) assuring conformity between the software agent and its digital twin in a real-time evaluation and b) validating decisions of the digital twins during runtime in a predictive simulation.enData visualisationSoftware agentsDigital twinsMalicious behavioursMonitoringSmart ecosystemsVirtual evaluation004005006conference paper
