Cyber Physical Systems (CPSs) are systems that are developed by seamlessly integrating computational algorithms and physical components, and they are a result of the technological advancement in the embedded systems and distributed systems domains, as well as the availability of sophisticated networking technology. Many industrial CPSs are subject to timing predictability, security and functional safety requirements, due to which the developers of these systems are required to verify these requirements during the their development. This position paper starts by exploring the state of the art with respect to developing timing predictable and secure embedded systems. Thereafter, the paper extends the discussion to time-critical and secure CPSs and highlights the key issues that are faced when verifying the timing predictability requirements during the development of these systems. In this context, the paper takes the position to advocate paramount importance of security as a prerequisite for timing predictability, as well as both security and timing predictability as prerequisites for functional safety. Moreover, the paper identifies the gaps in the existing frameworks and techniques for the development of time- and safety-critical CPSs and describes our viewpoint on ensuring timing predictability and security in these systems. Finally, the paper emphasises the opportunities that artificial intelligence can provide in the development of these systems.

Pervasive computing has progressed significantly with a growth of embedded systems as a result of recent advances in digital electronics, wireless networking, sensors and RFID technology. These embedded systems are capable of producing enormous amount of data that cannot be handled by human brains. At the same time, there is a growing need for integrating these embedded devices into physical environment in order to achieve a far better capability, scalability, resiliency, safety, security and usability in important sectors such as healthcare, manufacturing, transportation, energy, agriculture, architecture and many more. The confluence of all these recent trends is the vision of distributed cyber-physical systems that will far exceed the performance of traditional embedded systems. Cyber-physical systems are emerging technology that require significant research in design and implementation with a few important challenges to overcome. The goal of this chapter is to present an overview of basic design and architecture of a cyber-physical system along with some specific applications and a brief description of the design process for developers. This chapter also presents a brief discussion of security and privacy issues, the most important challenge of cyber-physical systems.

Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) are smart systems that depend on the synergy of cyber and physical components. They link the physical world (e.g. through sensors, actuators, robotics, and embedded systems) with the virtual world of information processing. Applications of CPS have the tremendous potential of improving convenience, comfort, and safety in our daily life. This paper provides a brief introduction to CPSs and their applications.
