An Overview and Some Challenges in Cyber-Physical Systems

Technological advances in computing, communications, andcontrol, have set the stage for a next generation of engineered systems,called cyber-physical systems (CPS). These systems can potentially beimportant in overcoming many challenges in energy, environment, transportation,and health care. In this paper, we discuss some of these grandchallenges that necessitate further advances in CPS. We also provide apartial survey of some important research issues, and an overview of severalresearch efforts that have been undertaken toward the developmentof CPS.
