Smarter Cyber Physical Systems: Enabling Methodologies and Applications

by Yan Wan (Editor), Kyriakos Vamvoudakis (Editor), Yangquan Chen (Editor), Frank Lewis (Editor)

Overview

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) is featured by the tight integration of cyber and physical components. CPS has made major advances with a broad societal impact. Now in the era of Industry Revolution 4.0, CPS is considered as an enabling technology. Combined with autonomy, big data, machine learning and internet of things, CPS empowers systems with greater intelligence to address uncertainties, unknowns, attacks, and unexpected events.

This book highlights the latest advances and explores the new trends in the design and implementation of smarter Cyber-Physical systems (CPS). It introduces integrated model-based and data-driven solutions for CPS that demonstrate features including both adaptability and interpretability. Key topics covered include reinforcement learning, digital twin and large-scale networks. The book then presents the latest codesign techniques that address practical computation, networking, control, and physical constraints. It examines important issues related to human CPS, safety, resilience and privacy. The chapters feature the tight integration of theory and practice, including problems motivated from applications, fundamental research development that are generally applicable, and implementation in real system applications. A wide range of CPS applications are covered, including robotics, autonomous driving, unmanned aerial vehicles and smart cities.
