Submission deadline | October 10, 2018 |
The workshop aims to bring together researchers and provide a platform for discussion of latest results in the area of safe and secure time sensitive cyber-physical systems (CPSs) from a software engineering perspective. Due to recent advances in informational and operational technologies, cyber-physical systems can be found in more and more safety-critical applications, e.g., autonomous vehicles (e.g., automotive, rail, construction equipment, etc.), platooning, smart factories, autonomous robots. Many of those applications are time-sensitive, i.e., there are hard real-time deadlines and a failure of reaching those deadlines cannot be tolerated. Given current trends in CPSs development that include support of their functionalities through connections with public infrastructures, involvement of humans in the loop and enabling cooperation with each other, it becomes necessary to address such CPSs safety and security and due to safety and security interconnections to do it in a joint effort. Thus, the workshop is focused on safety and security overlapping, ways to address it from different perspectives and stages of system development.
Submission Guidelines
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:
- Technical Papers (max. 6 pages in ACM format).
Full papers presenting research results or industrial practices related to safe and secure time sensitive CPSs.
- Position and Experience Papers (max. 4 pages in ACM format).
Short papers introducing challenges, visions, positions or preliminary results within the scope of the workshop. Experience reports and papers on open challenges in industry are especially welcome.
List of Topics
We encourage authors to submit papers addressing the following aspects of safe and secure time sensitive CPSs:
- modeling and formal analysis
- inner-, and inter-communication
- architecture, design and implementation
- trade-offs between safety and security
- software testing for safe and secure time sensitive CPS
- component/contract design
- security threats and vulnerabilities of CPS
