Abstract :
Summary form only given: The term “cyber-physical systems” designates systems with strongly coupled computational (cyber) and physical sub-systems. Several different knowledge and engineering domains are involved in this context, such as electronic system design, design automation, software engineering, control theory, and real-time systems. A very important aspect of cyber-physical systems is communication, which represents the information exchange and signal links between sensors, computational units and actuators of cyber-physical systems. The keynote will focus on the communication aspects of cyber-physical systems. It will review the state-of-the-art in this context and discuss important communication issues of cyber-physical systems when using examples taken from tele-operation, transportation, energy management, healthcare and complex machines.
