Definition

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are systems of collaborating computational entities which are in intensive connection with the surrounding physical world and its on-going processes, providing and using, at the same time, data-accessing and data-processing services available on the internet. With other words, CPS can be generally characterized as “physical and engineered systems whose operations are monitored, controlled, coordinated, and integrated by a computing and communicating core” (Rajkumar et al. 2010). The interaction between the physical and cyber elements is of key importance: “CPS is about the intersection, not the union, of the physical and the cyber. It is not sufficient to separately understand the physical components and the computational components. We must understand their interaction” (Lee and Seshia 2014).

Theory and Application

Origin, Short History

Most of the researchers originate CPS from the embedded systems (Park et al. 2012),...
