Real-time Cyber-Physical Systems transatlantic engineering curricula framework

How to educate future engineers, so that they acquired new skills and competences to become developers of Cyber Physical Systems (CPS)? The paper demonstrates a curriculum framework that was developed and successfully implemented some years ago, as an outcome of two international projects undertaken by a consortium of the European and American universities. The projects had focused on special category of CPS - Real-Time CPS. Examples of laboratory environment supporting education in the field of Real Time CPS are given in the paper.
