The objective of this project is to develop a science of integration for cyber-physical systems (CPS). The proposed research program has three focus areas: (1) foundations, (2) tools and tool architectures, (3) systems/experimental research. The project has pushed along several frontiers towards these overall objectives. In the following, we describe selected accomplishments:

Abstract: Recent years have seen medical devices go from being monolithic to a collection of integrated systems. Modern medical device systems have thus become a distinct class of cyber-physical systems called Medical Cyber Physical Systems (MCPS), featuring complex and close interaction of sophisticated treatment algorithms with the physical aspects of the system, and especially thepatient whose safety is of the utmost concern.

Abstract: The verification of hybrid systems requires ways of handling both the discrete and continuous dynamics, e.g., by proofs, abstraction, or approximation. Fundamentally, however, the study of the safety of hybrid systems can be shown to reduce constructively to the problem of generating invariants for their differ- ential equations. We recently focused on this core problem. We study the case of algebraic invariant equation, i.e. invariants described by a polynomial equation of the form p = 0 for a polynomial p.

March 13-14, 2014 | NIST Campus | Gaithersburg, Maryland Dedicated Smart Grid Testbeds (SG TBs) are being developed by industry, academia, and government laboratories to characterize smart grid equipment and systems and validate smart grid performance and standards. At this nascent stage, much needs to be done to develop shared understanding of needs, opportunities, and approaches for integrating testbed design and operation to achieve the full potential of the evolving smart gird.

Embedded Systems Week (ESWEEK) is the premier event covering all aspects of embedded systems and software. By bringing together three leading conferences (CASES, CODES+ISSS, and EMSOFT), two symposia (ESTIMedia and RSP) and several workshops and tutorials, ESWeek allows attendees to benefit from a wide range of topics covering the state of the art in embedded systems research and development.
