Abstract: This work presents INTELLECTUM as a reference architecture and design-time evaluation framework for multi-entity XR–AI–digital twin systems. Rather than optimizing a specific implementation, the paper formalizes architectural invariants, event semantics, and coordination mechanisms that precede and inform system realization. INTELLECTUM provides a conceptual framework for structuring interactions across physical and virtual environments, emphasizing human-centered design, immersive digital twins, and collaborative extended-reality workspaces. The technical specification defines core architectural components, human integration modalities via WebXR and heterogeneous sensor networks, and representative usage scenarios within smart city ecosystems. By enabling AI-assisted urban planning, interactive simulation, and multi-actor coordination, INTELLECTUM positions itself as an XR-based architectural foundation for next-generation smart city platforms.
