The availability of efficient and powerful embedded processing and communication systems has paved the way towards an increasing application of cyber-physical systems (CPS), in particular in but not limited to the automotive domain, where highly automated and electrified driving as well as connectivity services and applications are forceful drivers for development.

The increasing amount of interconnected CPS in vehicles or systems of CPS containing the vehicle requires holistic and interoperable methods and tools for the efficient and consolidated interdisciplinary design, and for end-to-end real-time transmission and management of data and corresponding algorithms for their (real-time) analysis, storage and processing. This implies also the consideration of security and the mutual impact of security and safety. 

This workshop will focus on challenges and case studies for CPS development in the automotive and transport domain and foster the exchange of knowledge with other application domains such as factory or building automation (e.g. Industry 4.0). Particular attention is paid to the interdisciplinary approaches and communication between industrial requirements and best practices and state of the art and beyond approaches.
