INDUSTRIAL CYBER‐PHYSICAL SYSTEMS

Syllabus

Integration of physical and cyber components. Distributed and Large‐Scale Industrial Systems. Interconnection and interoperation of the Individual Subsystems. Data exchange among subsystems. Reconfigurable industrial processes. Flexible manufacturing processes. Modelling layers of cyber‐physical systems. Layers of distributed and centralized control. Analysis of cyberattacks in sensors, actuators, and interconnections. Attack detection and identification. Soft Sensors. Observers. Design and Development of Supervisors leading to resilient cyber‐physical systems. Robustness and Reliability of industrial Cyber‐Physical Systems. Interoperability and quality standards on Industrial Cyber‐Physical Systems.

Learning Outcomes

Aim of the course is to familiarize students with the applications of cyber-physical systems in modern industrial units, so as to acquire the theoretical and technological background in the field. Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to:

• Model the integrated physical and cyber-physical elements.
• Understand the operating principles of distributed industrial systems and large-scale systems, resulting from the interconnection and interoperability among the individual subsystems.
• Implement and apply tools satisfying safe communication among the subsystems.
• Develop, implement, and apply systems that detect and identify cyber-attacks.
• Design and implement supervisory systems that improve resilience and robustness of cyber-physical systems.
• Design and implement supervisory systems that maintain interoperability of subsystems and comply with quality standards in industrial cyber-physical systems.
• Exploit all above skills to implement efficient industrial cyber-physical systems.
