Engineering Cyber-Physical Systems: Challenges and Foundations

  • Conference paper

Abstract

Cyber-Physical Systems are the next step into globally integrated software systems. They are the result of the combination of embedded system with cyberspace. Cyber-Physical Systems support real world awareness in the Internet and the access to global data and services by embedded system. The engineering challenge for Cyber-Physical System is the combination of characteristic properties of embedded systems such a real time, functional safety, dependability, closedness with characteristic properties of the internet such ad openness, partial availability, restricted quality of service and reduced dependability.
