9th International Workshop on Verification and Evaluation of Computer and Communication Systems (VECoS 2015) Important dates Paper submission: May 15, 2015 Decision notification: July 12, 2015 Camera-ready submission: July 23, 2015 Workshop: September 10-11, 2015 Aims and scope

Abstract: This project will design next-­‐generation defense mechanisms to protect critical infrastructures, such as power grids, large industrial plants, and water distribution systems. These critical infrastructures are complex primarily due to the integration of cyber and physical components, the presence of high-­‐order behaviors and functions, and an intricate and large interconnection pattern.

Abstract: Recent developments in nanostructures manufacturing, sensing and wireless networking, will soon enable us to deploy Flow‐based Cyber‐Physical Systems equipped with sensing and actuation capabilities for a broad range of applications.

Abstract: Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are being increasingly deployed in critical infrastructures such as electric-power, water, transportation, and other networks. These deployments are facilitating real-time monitoring and closed-loop control by exploiting the advances in wireless sensor-actuator networks, the internet of “everything,” data-driven analytics, and machine-to-machine interfaces. CPS operations depend on the synergy of computational and physical components.

Abstract: Cyber-physical system (CPS) applications for urban systems often involve sophisticated interaction and coordination between physical and computational resources with a large number of sensing and actuation devices that share information communication networks.
