Call for Papers

Workshop on Design, Modeling and Evaluation of Cyber Physical Systems (CyPhy 2016)

Held in conjunction with ESWEEK 2016

October 6 2016 | Pittsburgh, PA, USA | http://www.cyphy.org/

Cyber physical systems (CPSs) combine computing and networking power with physical components. They enable innovation in a wide range of domains including robotics; smart homes, vehicles, and buildings; medical implants; and future-generation sensor networks. CyPhy'16 brings together researchers and practitioners working on modeling, simulation, and evaluation of CPS, based on a broad interpretation of these areas, to collect and exchange expertise from a diverse set of disciplines. The workshop places particular focus on techniques and components to enable and support virtual prototyping and testing.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following aspects of cyber-physical systems:

• Foundations: models of computation, modeling and simulation languages for hybrid and cyberphysical systems, including hybrid automata and hybrid process theory, as well as other integrations of control-theoretic and discrete-event models;
• Methods: Specifications and evaluation of processes for rigorous modeling, testing, simulation, and verification of new cyber-physical systems;
• Case studies: Development of industrial or research oriented cyber-physical systems in domains such as robotics, smart systems (homes, vehicles, buildings), medical and healthcare devices, future generation networks; and
• Tools: Evaluation of novel research tools, comparisons of state of the art tools in industrial practice.
