Introduction to Cyber-Physical Systems

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Computer Communications and Networks ((CCN))

Abstract

This chapter begins with an overview of cyber-physical systems in Sect. 3.1 taking into account the introduction to systems in Chap. 1 and embedded computing systems in Chap. 2. Thereafter, Sect. 3.2 concentrates to recommendations with regard to cyber-physical systems design. In Sect. 3.3 cyber-physical system requirements are described to emphasize disciplined approaches to their design. Section 3.4 introduces the opportunities created applying the cyber-physical technology in a wide range of domains, offering numerous opportunities in products and applications. Section 3.5 refers to smart cities and the Internet of Everything. The case study in Sect. 3.6 focuses on cyber-physical vehicle tracking. Section 3.7 contains comprehensive questions from the cyber-physical systems domain, followed by references and suggestions for further reading.
