(CPS) features a tight coordination between the system’s computational & physical elements
• CPSs increasingly use networked processing elements to control physical, chemical, or biological processes or devices

• A cyber-physical system (CPS) features a tight coordination between the system’s computational & physical elements
• CPSs increasingly use networked processing elements to control physical, chemical, or bi ological processes or devices
• In CPSs the “right answer” delivered too late becomes the “wrong answer”• i.e., dependability has
a temporal dimension
(& increasingly a security dimension)
This talk focuses on distributed CPSs rather than standalone CPSs

2. Flexible optimization algorithms to balance real-time constraints with cost & other goals– CPS deployments must be
schedulable on all resources acquired from cloud providers to ensure real-time response times, while optimizing desired objective functions
– Principled means are needed to co-schedule and/or per form admission control & eviction of mixed-criticality task sets deployed on cloud resources

3. Improved fault-tolerance fail-over that supports real-time requirements– Some cloud platforms
tolerate faults for provisioned re sources• This is insufficient for
CPSs where real-time fault-tolerance of end-to-end task chains must be met simultaneously
