2015 NSF Early-Career Investigators' Workshop on Cyber-Physical Systems in Smart Cities
Seattle, WA / April 13-17, 2015
Background on CPS and Smart Cities
Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are engineered systems that are built from, and depend upon, the seamless integration of computational algorithms and physical components.

Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are smart compound systems engineered through seamless integration of embedded information processing sub-systems and physical sub-systems. The vision of smart systems connected and collaborating through various interfaces and communication media to form the global Internet of Things (IoT) is not a science-fiction anymore, but is quickly becoming an actual reality. The future smarter and more fit to use CPS will have important applications in virtually all economic and social segments, and their economic and societal impact will be enormous.
