Engineering industrial cyber-physical systems: An application map based method

Systems Engineering for Industrial Cyber-Physical Systems Using Aspects

One of the biggest challenges in cyber-physical system (CPS) design is their intrinsic complexity, heterogeneity, and multidisciplinary nature. Emerging distributed CPS integrate a wide range of heterogeneous aspects such as physical dynamics, control, machine learning, and error handling. Furthermore, system components are often distributed over multiple physical locations, hardware platforms ...

Industrial Cyber – Physical Systems

Cyber-Physical Systems Engineering

Building complex embeddedand cyber-physical systems requires a holistic view on both product and process. The constructed system must interact with its physical environment and its human users in a smooth way. The development processes must provide a seamless transition between stages and views. Different modeling techniques and methods have been proposed to achieve this goal. In this chapter w...

Systems Engineering of Cyber-Physical Systems: An Integrated Education Program

Mark Andreessen “Software is eating the world”. [1] Elon Musk: “We really designed the Model S to be a very sophisticated computer on wheels,”.... “Tesla is a software company as much as it is a hardware company. A huge part of what Tesla is, is a Silicon Valley software company. We view this the same as updating your phone or your laptop.” [2] Increasingly, products, systems, and infrastructur...

A Cyber-Physical System-based Approach for Industrial Automation Systems

—Industrial automation systems (IASs) are commonly developed using the languages defined by the IEC 61131 standard and are executed on PLCs. Their software part is considered after the development and integration of mechanics and electronics. This approach narrows the solution space for software and is considered inadequate to address the complexity of today's systems. In this paper, a system-b...
