National Workshop on Cyber-Physical Systems Research Directions for Transportation: Aviation, Automobiles and Rail

该奖项支持国家网络物理系统（CPS）交通研究方向研讨会：航空、汽车和铁路。该研讨会将于2008年11月18日至20日在华盛顿西雅图举行，由NITRD高可信度软件和系统机构间协调小组赞助。会议的目的是确定必须解决的共同需求和研究挑战，以支持各运输部门（例如航空、汽车、铁路）和整个集体运输部门的健康未来。所有行业都有一个共同的特点，即未来的车辆将以一种从根本上支持网络的方式与其他车辆以及急剧变化的基础设施进行交互。网络物理系统是一种系统，在这种系统中，网络化、实时、嵌入式控制普遍存在于所有集成级别，并且存在人类和系统共享的连续自治和权威。当被视为网络物理系统时，未来的车辆和运输系统设计可以提高这些系统的安全性、安全性、能源效率、控制和维护。这次全国研讨会将有助于促进识别部门的共同以及不同的研究需求和研究挑战，这些挑战将通过将这些大型分布式系统与异构组成车辆系统视为动态网络物理系统来识别。

This award supports a National Workshop on Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) Research Directions forTransportation: Aviation, Automobiles and Rail. The workshop is to be held in Seattle, Washington, November 18-20, 2008, with sponsorship from the NITRD High Confidence Software and Systems interagency Coordinating Group. The purpose of the meeting is to identify common needs and research challenges that must be addressed to support the healthy future of constituent transportation sectors (e.g., aviation, automotive, railway) and for the collective transportation sector as a whole. All sectors share the characteristic that future vehicles will interact with other vehicles and with a dramatically changing infrastructure in a way that is fundamentally cyber-enabled. Cyber-physical systems are systems in which networked, real-time, embedded control is pervasive at all levels of integration, and there is a continuum of autonomy and authority shared by humans and systems. When viewed as cyber physical systems, future vehicle and transportation system designs can lead to improvements in safety, security, energy-efficiency, control, and maintenance of such systems. This national workshop will help to facilitate the identification of common as well as distinct research needs of the sectors and the research challenges that will be identified by viewing these large distributed systems, with heterogeneous constituent vehicular systems, as dynamic cyber-physical systems.
