Cyber-physical systems (CPS) have become the subject of a growing body of research,alongside an increasing awareness of the challenges posed by their technological and semantic foundations and the impact of their deployment in a wide range of new applications. In such a large emergent eld, there is a need to consider a wide variety of potential areas for research and development. We suggest that research road maps that can identify possible relevant research directions and their impacts will prove to be important for CPS research across Europe, in order to facilitate coordination between the disparate disciplines and elds touched by CPS engineering, and allowing the maximum research impact to be achieved.
