Hybrid Systems and Control

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are physical engineering systems controlled by computer-based algorithms. Such systems are increasingly penetrating our lives, e.g., unmanned air vehicles, autonomous cars, and advanced surgical robots. Yet how to affordably build safe, reliable, and trustworthy cyber-physical systems remains a fundamental challenge in both academia and industry. To address this challenge, the proposed research program will develop fundamentally new theoretical and computational frameworks to facilitate systems engineering of high-confidence CPS. With implications for a wide range of applications, including automotive systems, robotics, medical devices, and smart manufacturing, this research will position Canada at the forefront of CPS research worldwide.
