SELPHYS 2016
Self-Awareness in Cyber-Physical Systems
A CPS Week Workshop in frame of CPSWeek 2016
DESCRIPTION:
Inspired by biological examples, self-awareness has become a hot research topic in a variety of disciplines and its applicability has been explored in various application domains. The topic owes its attractiveness to its promise to facilitate highly resilient, adaptive and outstandingly efficient behaviors. Thus, self-awareness is expected to promote dependability in all types of smart gadgets and artificial agents in the interconnected world of future.
The main purpose of this workshop is to build a community and to try to develop a shared and communal understanding of the main concepts underlying self-awareness with respect to CPS. Currently, self-awareness is studied in a range of different communities, where the underlying assumptions, definitions and goals differ significantly. This workshop will provide a forum for reflections and in-depth discussions of the pivotal concepts of this field which will serve as a basis for building an integrated scientific community and for developing future research projects.
We seek previously published or unpublished contributions for oral and/or poster presentations on research relevant to self-awareness in cyber-physical systems on, but not limited to, the following topics and application areas:
TOPICS:
- Self-awareness in HW, Operating System, and applications
- Self-awareness facilitating autonomous, adaptive or resilient behavior
- Demonstration of self-awareness * Architectures
- Design methods
- Systems with other Self-* properties
APPLICATION AREAS:
- Sensor Networks
- Internet of Things
- Automotive
- Robotics
- Health Monitoring
- Industrial Automation
- Autonomous Vehicles
