Cyber-physical systems are not developed as standalone systems, but in conjunction with
other systems and are subsequently aggregated to some super system (ie a car or an …

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) contain intertwined and distributed software, hardware, and
physical components to control complex physical processes. They find wide application in …

Cyber-physical systems interact closely at runtime with their operational context, ie, other
systems, users, and external entities. Therefore, eliciting and documenting interactions with …

When developing cyber‐physical systems (CPS), the context is of vital importance. CPS
interact with the world not only through sensing the environment and acting upon it (like …

When developing embedded systems, the context is of vital importance as embedded
systems interact with the context through sensing and actuation. There is a multitude of …

Smart factories are highly flexible production sites, that can adapt to fulfill a variety of
production needs. Particularly, this shall allow for fulfilling production orders that are …

Cyber-physical systems are highly collaborative by nature. At runtime these systems
collaborate with each other to achieve goals that a single system could not achieve on its …

Traditionally, embedded systems were characterized as reactive systems, whose
functionality was determined by the execution of particular control circuits. Today's …

Today's embedded systems operate in highly interactive collaborative system networks to
fullfill an overall purpose within a complex technical system (eg, motor vehicles, aircrafts …

Abstract A Cyber-Physical System (CPS) is a networked collection of diverse physical
elements that perform complex operations to achieve a certain goal. To ensure the quality …
