AbstractIn this paper, we analyze the specific requirements of interacting with cyber-physical systems and propose a design approach that is driven by user needs and makes use of an expanded toolbox that contains state-of-the-art interaction technologies including Smart Glasses and Wearables. We present several examples of assistance systems in industrial production that use these interaction technologies and discuss the corresponding usability and implementation aspects.


This chapter discusses current role and future prospects of ambient intelligence in development of applications for the internet of things environments. The authors provide an introduction to the field of ambient intelligence and specifically discuss what makes it so important to be a core element of cyber-physical systems. The main focus of the chapter is on providing analysis and the reasoning for development of smart spaces and delivering ambient intelligence to internet of things environments. The chapter provides definition and overview of recent trends and advances for service development with all identified key technological enablers of modern info-communication technologies, including data mining, big data analysis, recommendation systems, and so on. The main messages of the chapter are summarized by the conclusion section.

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.

The recent proliferation of embedded cyber components in modern physical systems [1] has generated a variety of new security risks which threaten not only cyberspace, but our physical environment as well. Whereas earlier security threats resided primarily in cyberspace, the increasing marriage of digital technology with mechanical systems in cyber-physical systems (CPS), suggests the need for more advanced generalized CPS security measures. To address this problem, in this paper we consider the first step toward an improved security model: detecting the security attack. Using logical truth tables, we have developed a generalized algorithm for intrusion detection in CPS for systems which can be defined over discrete set of valued states. Additionally, a robustness algorithm is given which determines the level of security of a discrete-valued CPS against varying combinations of multiple signal alterations. These algorithms, when coupled with encryption keys which disallow multiple signal alteration, provide for a generalized security methodology for both cyber-security and cyber-physical systems.
