ABSTRACT
Cyber-physical system is a transformative technology for managing interconnected systems including both physical assets and computational capabilities. The greater availability and affordability of sensors, data acquisition systems and computer networks, as well as the competitive nature of today’s industry, means more factories are implementing high-tech methodologies. The term cyber-physical system refers to a new generation of systems with integrated computational and physical capabilities that can interact with humans through many new modalities. The ability to interact with and expand the capabilities of the physical world through computation, communication and control is a key enabler of technological development. Wireless sensor networks and the Internet of Things are different. Wireless sensor network senses a signal but does not necessarily identify a specific object out of many objects being sensed. Modeling can be considered as the technology to describe a target system before completion.
