Visible to the public Exploration of the Cyber-Physical Design Space

Abstract:

Generally, a cyber-physical-system (CPS) is one that combines computational and physical entities in a unified design effort. The design of CPSs needs good understanding of both subsystems, as small changes in the physical subsystem (PS) or the cyber subsystem (CS) may have significant consequences with respect to the overall system performance.

Visible to the public CYPRESS: Cyber-Physical RESilience and Sustainability Dependability Techniques for Instrumented Cyber-Physical Spaces

Abstract:

The objective of this research is to develop semantic foundations, cross-layer system architectures and adaptation services to improve dependability in instrumented cyberphysical spaces (ICPS). The approach is based on the principles of "computation reflection" where information from heterogeneous sensing devices is used to create a digital representation of the evolving cyberphysical world for use by mission-critical applications such as infrastructure monitoring, and incident-site emergency response.
