Model-Based Software Integration for Flexible Design of Cyber-Physical Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper discusses the design of complex embedded systems around intelligent physical worlds (IPW). Here, an IPW is an embodiment of control software functions wrapped around the raw physical processes to perform the core domain-specific adaptation activities. The IPW exhibits an intelligent behavior over a limited operating region of the system—in contrast with the traditional models where the physical world is basically dumb. To perform over a wider range of operating conditions, the IPW interacts with an intelligent computational world (ICW) to patch itself with suitable control parameters and rules/procedures relevant in those changed conditions. The modular decomposition of an application into IPW and ICW lowers the overall software complexity of building embedded systems.

A Semantic Framework for Modeling and Simulation of Cyber-Physical Systems
This paper describes a new semantic framework for model-based systems engineering, requirements traceability, and system simulation and assessment of cyber-physical systems (CPSs). When fully developed this environment will support the organization and integration of hierarchies of physical and software components, and perform analysis on their discrete and continuous behavior. Results of compu...
متن کاملModel Based Control Design and Integration of Automotive Cyber - Physical Systems
Cyber-Physical System (CPS) are complex systems because of the tight coupling and interactions between the physical dynamic, computational dynamic and communication network. With the interaction between the embedded computers, networks and physical processes, the Cyber and Physical levels of whole system affect each other [4]. As an example of CPS, the recently automotive systems employ nearly ...

When designing cyber-physical systems (CPS), virtual prototyping can discover potential design flaws at early design stages to reduce the difficulties at the integration stage. CPS are typically complex real-time distributed systems which require networks with deterministic end-to-end latency and bounded jitter. Time-triggered Ethernet (TTEthernet) integrates time-triggered and event-triggered ...
