Leap Out of the Box

We want your ideas!

This is your opportunity, as someone working in the field, to voice your ideas and present innovative solutions to the challenging problems facing the development and use of cyber-physical systems.

Your ideas will be added to the body of knowledge gained at this important CPS workshop, and your name will be included as a contributor in the workshop report (without attribution to specific ideas).

Please select from the following topic areas and prepare a response of 1000 words or less.

  • Topic 1. Identify one to five elements that are critical to future CPS systems and why – i.e., what is the vision for future CPS systems? These could be new technologies, higher performance functionalities, or other elements.
     
  • Topic 2. Identify one of the most pressing technology and measurement challenges for CPS – and an innovative approach or solution. Include R&D or other actions that are necessary to your approach.
     
  • Topic 3. Identify collaborative activities, consortia, or other cooperative approaches that could potentially accelerate development and use of CPS.

Click below to submit your ideas on CPS R&D barriers and challenges, promising new solutions, and the breakthrough science and technology R&D needed to make it happen.

This report, Ensuring American Leadership in Advanced Manufacturing, was prepared  by the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) and the President’s Innovation and Technology Advisory Committee (PITAC). The report provides a strategy and specific recommendations for revitalizing the Nation’s leadership in advanced manufacturing. The proposed startegy has two main components: (1) Creation of a fertile environment for innovation so that the United States provides the overall best environment for business.

This NSF grant supports the First PI Meeting and Workshop on Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), held at the Westin Arlington Gateway hotel, in Arlington, VA on Aug 10-12, 2010. The purpose of this meeting is to provide a forum for scientific interaction among a wide range of stakeholders in academia, industry and federal agencies; to review new developments in CPS foundations; to identify new, emerging applications; and to discuss technology gaps and barriers. The program of the meeting includes presentations from projects funded by NSF under the Cyber-Physical Systems program, government and industry panels, and topical discussion groups.

This NSF award provides support for a CPS Virtual Organization. The National Science Foundation established the Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) program with the vision of developing a scientific and engineering foundation for routinely building cyber-enabled engineered systems in which cyber capability is deeply embedded at all scales, yet which remain safe, secure, and dependable -- "systems you can bet your life on." The CPS challenge spans essentially every engineering domain. It requires the integration of knowledge and engineering principles across many computational and engineering research disciplines (computing, networking, control, human interaction, learning theory, as well as mechanical, chemical, biomedical, and other engineering disciplines) to develop a "new CPS system science." Achieving such an ambitious goal is challenging. The objective of the CPS "virtual organization" (CPS-VO) project is to actively build and support the multidisciplinary community needed to underpin this new research discipline and enable international and interagency collaboration on CPS. In support of the CPS-VO, Vanderbilt University will work with the community to develop strategies and mechanisms to: (i) facilitate and foster interaction and exchange among CPS researchers across a broad range of institutions, programs and disciplines, (ii) enable sharing of knowledge generated by CPS research with the broader engineering and scientific communities, sharing and integrating experimental tools, platforms and simulators among researchers and stakeholders, (iii) facilitate and foster collaboration and information exchange between CPS researchers and industry and (iv) facilitate international collaboration on CPS research.

Key Enabling Technologies (KETs) are attracting strong interest at both Member State and European Union level, as they are seen as the route to new products, processes and services capable of generating economic growth and employment, and contributing to strengthening and / or rejuvenating existing European sectors. KETs will enable sustainable, smart and inclusive growth in Europe. In addition, KETs' follow-through applications will create the substantial jobs, growth and wealth required in our future European economies to remain competitive at global level.
