National Workshop on "Research on Transportation Cyber-Physical Systems: Automotive, Aviation, and Rail"
November 18-20, 2008 | Washington, D.C.
http://www.ee.washington.edu/research/nsl/aar-cps/
The workshop was aimed at identifying common needs and research challenges that must be addressed for the healthy future of individual sector as well as collective transportation sector for aviation, automobile and railway. Each of these three sectors have the common feature that infrastructures interact with vehicles which when viewed as cyber physical systems, can lead to improvements in safety, resource-efficiency, control and maintenance of such systems. While the CPS view of these systems can greatly benefit the sectors, currently there is no result or methodology that will allow building better systems in any of these sectors. Research in automobile has barely begun while the aviation and railway sectors are yet to develop CPS view of their systems. Hence, this national workshop will help to facilitate the identification of common as well as individual needs and research challenges arising by view these large distributed systems as dynamic cyber-physical systems
