Designing Human-centered Sustainable Cyber-physical Systems of the Future

Project description

New systems for intelligent transport and smart cities

Today’s advanced structures and services rely on cyber-physical systems (CPSs). For instance, smart cities, intelligent transport systems and the Internet of things depend on CPSs. However, some characteristics of these systems are new, such as connectivity, autonomy, intelligence and collaboration, and go beyond the limits of traditional engineering practices. Existing engineering education is limited to technical problems and does not deal with sustainability and social implications. The EU-funded Sustainable-CPS project will use interactive, collaborative and advanced instruments from design thinking, systems thinking and future studies to establish a model and a tool to support the development of future CPSs that will centre on human necessities, social implications and sustainability.
