Self-Awareness in Cyber-Physical Systems, 5th edition

SelPhyS 2020


Computer Networks & Wireless Communication



DESCRIPTION:
Inspired by biological examples, self-awareness has become a hot research topic in a
variety of disciplines and its applicability has been explored in various application
domains. The topic owes its attractiveness to its promise to facilitate highly
resilient, adaptive and outstandingly efficient behaviors. Thus, self-awareness is
expected to promote dependability in all types of smart gadgets and artificial agents
in the interconnected world of future.
The main purpose of this workshop is to strengthen and extend the community and to try
to develop a shared and communal understanding of the main concepts underlying self-
awareness with respect to CPS. Currently, self-awareness is studied in a range of
different communities, where the underlying assumptions, definitions and goals differ
significantly. This workshop will provide a forum for reflections and in-depth
discussions of the pivotal concepts of this field which will serve as a basis for
building an integrated scientific community and for developing future research projects.
*** We seek previously published or unpublished contributions for oral and/or poster
presentations on research relevant to self-awareness in cyber-physical systems on, but
not limited to, the topics and application

SUBMISSION:
The workshop submissions (one page extended abstract, IEEE Conference format, PDF only)
has to be sent to workshop organizers (contact below). Organizers will sort the abstracts
according to their relevance and expected impact to the workshop outcome. We will
inform the authors of accepted submissions about the decision and proposed presentation
format by the selection deadline.
Authors of accepted submissions will have opportunity to make their work public at the
workshop website, but there will be no obligation to do so. Selected contributions will
be invited to submit an extended version of their work to a special issue of a reputable
journal and/or an edited book.
*** Deadline for extended abstracts: 15 January 2020
