This book presents an in-depth review of the state of the art of cyber-physical systems (CPS) and their applications. Relevant case studies are also provided, to help the reader to master the interdisciplinary material. Features: includes self-test exercises in each chapter, together with a glossary; offers a variety of teaching support materials at an associated website, including a comprehensive set of slides and lecture videos; presents a brief overview of the study of systems, and embedded computing systems, before defining CPS; introduces the concepts of the Internet of Things, and ubiquitous (or pervasive) computing; reviews the design challenges of CPS, and their impact on systems and software engineering; describes the ideas behind Industry 4.0 and the revolutions in digital manufacturing, including smart and agile manufacturing, as well as cybersecurity in manufacturing; considers the social impact of the changes in skills required by the globalized, digital work environment of the future.

This work is presented as a textbook for an introductory course on cyber-physical systems (CPS), or the Internet-of-Things (IoT) as it is popularly known. This book will be useful to industry practitioners, product managers, entrepreneurs, and researchers who are new to this technical domain. ... It can be a valuable reference book for supporting the early days of a researcher starting CPS research. (Sundara Nagarajan, Computing Reviews, April, 2017)
