Scope:
Cyber-physical systems (CPS) feature tight integrations of computation,
networking, and physical objects, in which various devices are networked to
sense, monitor and control the physical world. Although there is no unified
definition of this notion, some defining characteristics of CPS include
cyber capability in physical objects, networking at multiple and extreme
scales, complexity at both temporal and spatial scales, high degrees of
automation, and dependable even certifiable operations. It is believed that
CPS will transform how we interact with the physical world just like the
Internet transformed how we interact with one another. The technical,
economic and societal potential of such systems is immensely greater than
what has been realized. Major investments are being made around the world to
advance the state of the art and practice in CPS.
Ubiquitous applications and services that could significantly improve the
quality of our daily lives will be enabled by cyber-physical computing and
networking technologies. Potential applications of CPS include assisted
living, integrated medical systems, safe and efficient transportation,
automated traffic control, advanced automotive systems, autonomous search
and rescue, energy conservation, energy efficient buildings, environmental
control, smart appliances, distributed service delivery, critical
infrastructure control, distributed autonomous robotics, etc.
This special issue is intended to collect recent research results that
address key issues and topics related to design and applications of
cyber-physical systems. Survey and tutorial papers are particularly welcome.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Theoretical foundations of cyber-physical systems
- Architectures, protocols, and algorithms for cyber-physical systems
- Wireless sensor and actuator networks
- Cyber-physical networking
- Distributed computing and control
- Internet/Web of Things
- Software platforms for cyber-physical computing
- Cyber-physical applications and services
- Ubiquitous media services
- Quality of service
- Trust, security, and privacy
- Emerging applications in healthcare, transportation, environment, etc.
