Cyber-Physical Systems
About the research group
In today’s digitalized world, cyber-physical systems (CPS) form the backbone of smart societies, integrating computational intelligence with physical processes. These systems encompass everything from smart devices to complex industrial automation, enabling seamless interaction between the digital and physical realms.
Research Focus
The CPS Research Group is dedicated to advancing the design, development, and application of CPS and their integration with social systems. Our research lays the foundation for CPS through algorithmic innovations, software development, and computational modeling.
Our work spans multiple disciplines, including:
- Automation and control systems
- Smart Energy Harvesting and Optimization
- Telecommunications and wireless networks
- Data science and artificial intelligence
- Information technology and cybersecurity
- Computer science and software engineering
- Information systems and human-CPS interaction
- Space technology
Mission
Our mission is to generate scientific knowledge and develop cutting-edge solutions that position CPS as essential building blocks for a smart, resilient, and sustainable society. We strive to drive technological innovation, foster interdisciplinary collaboration, and address complex challenges in CPS development.
Recognizing the critical role of CPS in modern society, we have identified key research areas that align with our mission and societal needs.
The research group is headed by Professor Mohammed Elmusrati.
