Dependable Cyber-Physical Systems

CPS (Cyber-Physical Systems) enable a new class of applications that perceive their surroundings using raw data from sensors, monitor the timing of dynamic processes, and control the physical environment. Since failures and misbehaviors in application domains such as cars, medical devices, nuclear power plants, etc., may cause significant damage to life and/or property, CPS need to be safe and ...

Gardening Cyber-Physical Systems

Today’s artefacts, from small devices to buildings and cities, are, or are becoming, cyber-physical socio-technical systems, with tightly interwoven material and computational parts. Currently, we have to laboriously build such systems, component by component, and the results are often difficult to maintain, adapt, and reconfigure. Even “soft”ware is brittle and non-trivial to adapt and change....

Cyber-Physical Systems Engineering

Building complex embeddedand cyber-physical systems requires a holistic view on both product and process. The constructed system must interact with its physical environment and its human users in a smooth way. The development processes must provide a seamless transition between stages and views. Different modeling techniques and methods have been proposed to achieve this goal. In this chapter w...

Monitoring Cyber-Physical Systems

The term Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) typically refers to to engineering, physical and biological systems monitored and/or controlled by an embedded computational core. The behavior of a CPS over time is generally characterized by the evolution of physical quantities and discrete software and hardware states. In general, these can be mathematically modeled by the evolution of continuous state v...
