The Information Flow Monitor (IFM) is a protocol and tool that can record dependencies between exchanged information in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). This makes it possible to determine the original source of faulty information in case of an error and to correct errors at their origin. However, the IFM protocol also requires additional resources in terms of processing time and network traffic. In this paper, we measure the additional resources required using an example network and discuss how these resources can affect the operation of a CPS.

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) will revolutionize how humans relate with the physical world around us. Many grand challenges await the economically vital domains of transportation, health-care, manufacturing, agriculture, energy, defence, aerospace and buildings. Exploration of these potentialities around space and time would create applications which would affect societal and economic benefit. This paper looks into the concept of emerging Cyber-Physical system, applications and security issues in sustaining development in various economic sectors; outlining a set of strategic Research and Development opportunities that should be accosted, so as to allow upgraded CPS to attain their potential and provide a wide range of societal advantages in the future.
