Cooperative Cyber-Physical Systems (Co-CPSs) can be enabled using wireless communication technologies, which in principle should address reliability and safety challenges. Safety for Co-CPS enabled by wireless communication technologies is a crucial aspect and requires new dedicated design approaches. In this paper, we provide an overview of five Co-CPS use cases, as introduced in our SafeCOP EU project, and analyze their safety design requirements. Next, we provide a comprehensive analysis of the main existing wireless communication technologies giving details about the protocols developed within particular standardization bodies. We also investigate to what extent they address the non-functional requirements in terms of safety, security and real time, in the different application domains of each use case. Finally, we discuss general recommendations about the use of different wireless communication technologies showing their potentials in the selected real-world use cases. The discussion is provided under consideration in the 5G standardization process within 3GPP, whose current efforts are inline to current gaps in wireless communications protocols for Co-CPSs including many future use cases.

AbstractIndustrie 4.0 aims at improving value chains and value-added networks in industry. Technologically the approach is based on the introduction of cyber-physical systems. Their capabilities form the basis for smart systems. This paper presents technological approaches for Industrie 4.0 and introduces use cases as a specification technique for application scenarios. A demonstrator for additive manufacturing is presented. Lessons learnd from this demonstrator have led to the definition of capabilities for vertical and horizontal integration within Industrie 4.0.

The development of automotive cyber-physical systems (CPS) software needs to consider not only functional requirements, but also non-functional requirements and the interaction with physical environment. In this paper, a model-based software development method for automotive CPS (MoBDAC) is presented. The main contributions of this paper are threefold. First, MoBDAC covers the whole development workflow of automotive CPS software from modeling and simulation to code generation. Automatic tools are used to improve the development efficiency. Second, MoBDAC extracts nonfunctional requirements and deals with them in the implementation model level and source code level, which helps to correctly manage and meet non-functional requirements. Third, MoBDAC defines three kinds of relations between uncertain physical environment events and software internal actions in automotive CPS, and uses Model Modifier to integrate the interaction with physical environment. Moreover, we illustrate the development workflow of MoBDAC by an example of a power window development.

In the future smart factories will satisfy the demand of highly customized products. Stationary and mobile cyber-physical systems (CPS), as part of smart factories will exchange various information. Most of that will happen wirelessly. Out of that reason, a concept for real-time wireless networking of mobile CPS based on LTE is presented in this paper. Through a combination of LTE with GPS and adaptive streaming schemes, a real-time capable wireless communication system seems possible. The paper specifies further the necessary and targeted technical requirements of industrial communication for mobile CPS. It concluded with methods to test, evaluate and validate the communication system.
