Summer School on Cyber Physical Systems for Industrial Applications: Wireless self-powered vibration monitoring and control
CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
Summer School on Cyber Physical Systems for Industrial Applications: Wireless self-powered vibration monitoring and
control
Lugano (Switzerland), 8-10 September 2014
Organized by the consortium of EU FP7 project WiBRATE, http://wibrate.alari.ch
This summer school explores new paradigms and techniques for Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) in an industrial setting.
Cyber-Physical Systems have computations, reasoning, and communication highly embedded in and interacting with physical
objects. Typical examples of CPS can be found in manufacturing, robotics, and transport.
Since CPS cover multiple technologies that are closely interacting, researchers and designers that want to advance in
this interdisciplinary emerging domain, need to have a basic understanding of the various system components and
technologies forming a typical Cyber-Physical System. Starting from case studies provided by Centro Ricerche FIAT,
Honeywell, Perpetuum and Siemens this summer school will introduce participants to theoretical approaches and practical
aspects of industrial CPS solutions design. The school will focus on typical industrial issues such as wireless
communication, energy harvesting and vibration analysis, monitoring and control. Hands-on experiences on actual
Cyber-Physical Systems will complete the school.
The Summer School will take place in Lugano, in the heart of the Italian-speaking Canton of Switzerland. It will provide
participants with the unique opportunity of combining theoretical aspects of Cyber Physical Systems with real industrial
case studies and hands-on experiences. The School is organized by the EU FP7 project - WIBRATE.
The School is organized by the EU FP7 project - WIBRATE. The Coordinator of WiBRATE, Prof. Paul Havinga of University of
Twente, is the Scientific Coordinator of the Summer School.
Topics:
- Cyber Physical Systems for industry
- Vibration analysis, monitoring and control
- Wireless communication for industrial applications
- Wireless Sensor Networks
- Energy Harvesting
- System of systems modeling
