Prototype of a cyber-physical façade system

Medical Cyber Physical System

Cyber Physical System (CPS) is collection of different computation component which collaborate with each other in order to control the physical entity. Cyber physical system has a far reaching effect in different area such as aerospace, automotive, chemical processes, civil infrastructure, energy, healthcare, manufacturing, transportation, entertainment, and consumer appliances. CPS in healthca...

Model-Based Prototype Development to Support Early Validation of Cyber-Physical System Specifications

[Motivation] In the engineering of cyber-physical systems, attention is given to early validation of requirements artifacts. The use of prototypes is one known technique to identify incorrectness and aberrations from the stakeholder intentions early. [Problem] Software prototypes of cyber-physical systems’ software, however, often need to be adapted to the prototype’s hardware, which may differ...

Survivability Analysis on a Cyber-Physical System

A cyber-physical system (CPS) is composed of interdependent physical-resource and cyber-resource networks that are tightly coupled. The malfunction of nodes in a network may trigger failures to the other network and further cause cascading failures, which would potentially lead to the complete collapse of the entire system. The number and communication of operating nodes at stable state are clo...

Aligning Cyber-Physical System Safety and Security

Safety and security are two key properties of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). Safety is aimed at protecting the systems from accidental failures in order to avoid hazards, while security is focused on protecting the systems from intentional attacks. They share identical goals – protecting CPS from failing. When aligned within a CPS, safety and security work well together in providing a solid foun...
