Authors:
Offers a unique perspective to gain the skills needed for learning, applying, and developing a wide range of scientific, engineering, and social knowledge that are key to engineering future systems
Introduces key concepts from different areas in an efficient manner. The disciplines considered include physical modeling, control, hybrid systems, computational modeling, and game theory
Focuses on modeling, and uses simulation rather than analytical methods to provide generality and avoid the need for specialized mathematical skills.
Assumes very little mathematical prerequisites, and offers the opportunity to review and sharpen mathematical skills

About this book
Starting with a look at various examples and characteristics of Cyber-Physical Systems, the book progresses to explain how the area brings together several previously distinct ones such as Embedded Systems, Control Theory, and Mechatronics.
Featuring a simulation-based project that focuses on a robotics problem (how to design a robot that can play ping-pong) as a useful example of a CPS domain, Cyber-Physical Systems: A Model-Based Approach demonstrates the intimate coupling between cyber and physical components, and how designing robots reveals several non-trivial control problems, significant embedded and real-time computation requirements, and a need to consider issues of communication and preconceptions.
