title: Dynamic Capability Graph (DCGM)

description: DCGM-LL: Dynamic Capability Graph Model for Lifelong Learning Path Optimization

Overview

DCGM-LL (Dynamic Capability Graph Model) is a next-generation framework designed to optimize lifelong learning paths by integrating digital twin environments with blockchain technology.This framework dynamically models learners’ skill trajectories, securely records learning outcomes, and adaptively personalizes educational pathways.

The core of the system is the Dynamic Capability Graph Model (DCGM), which uses graph-based learning representations, real-time digital twin simulations, and blockchain-based credential verification.An Adaptive Integration Strategy (AIS) further enhances personalization and scalability.

This framework provides a transparent, secure, and data-driven solution for continuous learning in a rapidly evolving digital education ecosystem.
