Cyber-Physical Systems and Hybrid Systems (CPSHS)

 

Objectives: The tight conjoining of and coordination between physical systems and computation has brought to light a new generation of engineered systems: Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and Hybrid Systems (HS). CPS and HS applications can be found in medical devices and systems, patient monitoring devices, automotive and air traffic control, advanced automotive systems, process control, environmental monitoring, avionics, instrumentation, oil refineries, water usage control, cooperative robotics, manufacturing, control, buildings, etc. Particular topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Human-centric CPS
• Enabling embedded components in CPS
• New mission scenarios of CPS
• Cooperative actuation and sensing policies in CPS
• Actuation and sensing fusion in CPS
• Information sharing and agreement in CPS
• Virtualization and virtual organization in CPS
• Complexity measures for CPS
• Random delay effects in CPS
• Communication management in CPS
• Mobility (mobile sensors and actuators) in CPS
• Multi-scale analysis of CPS
• Scale-free network structure of CPS
• Medical CPS
• Computation and Control of HS
• Modeling and Analysis of CPS and HS
• Embedded and resource-awareness
• Control of CPS and HS
• Programming, architectures, and implementation
