CPS Summer School 2019
Designing Cyber-Physical Systems – From concepts to implementation


Porto Conte Ricerche - Alghero - Sardinia - Italy
September 23-27, 2019

------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are complex and autonomous ensembles of 
different components that interact to offer smart and adaptive 
functionalities. These systems are increasingly used in a variety of 
applications with a growing market, potentially bringing about 
significant social benefits. However, there is no such thing as a free 
lunch, and there area several new challenges and trade-offs to face when 
designing CPS, especially since they should be able to adapt to the 
changing environments, or heal themselves. Uncertain operation 
environments and interactions with humans as users and/or as operators 
complicate the scenarios of these ever increasingly pervasive systems.


The CPS summer school is targeted at students, research scientists, and 
R&D experts from academia and industry, who want to learn about CPS 
engineering and applications. The program is composed of both lectures 
and practical sessions, covering all the design phases of CPS (i.e., 
from concept to the definition of the final system and the discussion of 
the key challenges).


Topics (http://www.cpsschool.eu/program/) include, but are not limited 
to, the following:
- Market trends for CPS
- Hardware/software and multi-view modelling
- Adaptivity
- Low power design of heterogeneous systems
- Tools for dataflow design, high-level synthesis, hardware/software 
co-design, and coarse/fine reconfiguration

Application and Registration (http://www.cpsschool.eu/application/)
The school is open to up to 40 participants.
