Apporter de l'intelligence aux systèmes cyber-physiques : opportunités et défis de modélisation

Cyber-Physical Systems involve numerous interconnected components that sense or enact on the physical world to support customized software services for human beings. From a software and systems engineering point of view, such systems are essentially complex socio-technical systems that lead to the development of dynamically adaptable systems. The adaptability with regards to the physical environment comes from a feedback (control) loop (e.g., MAPE-K loop) assimilating data from the sensors, building a model of the surrounding environment, planning or possibly predicting new scenarios, and soliciting the actuators accordingly, in the form of a sequence of actions.
