usability of CPS. The increase in software attributes will broaden the potential of CPS in several dimensions like intervention in case of collision avoidance; precision in case of robotic surgery and nanolevel manufacturing; operation in dangerous or inaccessible environments in case of search and rescue, reghting, and deep-sea exploration; coordination in case of air trafc control, war ghting, and efciency in case of zero-net energy buildings; and augmentation of human capabilities in case of health-care monitoring and delivery.
