Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are physical and engineered systems whose operations are monitored, coordinated, controlled and integrated by a computing and communication core. International Conference on Cyber-Physical Systems is the flagship conference on cyber-physical systems. ICCPS is seeking submissions of abstracts for demos, posters and Work-in-Progress presentations.
Contributions should emphasize the cross-cutting, system-wide themes. Sectors of applicability include, but are not limited to, transportation (automotive, aerospace, marine, rail), SCADA systems (electricity generation including smart grids and the like, other utilities), smart physical infrastructure (smart bridges, buildings and highways), energy efficiency (energy-aware buildings), environmental monitoring, defense systems, intelligent medical devices, tele-operations and robotics.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Theoretical foundations of CPS
- Modeling, Analysis and Synthesis Techniques
- Architectures for Cyber-Physical Systems
- Building blocks for Cyber-Physical Systems
- Systems Abstractions, Services and OS Support
- Evaluation approaches and metrics
- Novel CPS applications
Submissions will be evaluated based on technical merit and innovation as well as their potential to stimulate interesting discussions and exchange of ideas at the conference. Both academic and industrial submissions are encouraged. The submissions should be a one-page abstract in PDF format following ICCPS regular-paper formatting guidelines. All accepted abstracts will be published in the regular ICCPS Proceedings.
KEY DATES
The following submission deadlines and notification dates apply for Demo/Poster/WIP sessions:
- Paper Submission Deadline: January 27, 2014
- Acceptance Decisions: February 7, 2014
- Camera-ready Abstracts: February 8, 2014

SUBMISSION
Submissions will be evaluated based on technical merit and innovation as well as their potential to stimulate interesting discussions and exchange of ideas at the conference. Both academic and industrial submissions are encouraged. The submissions should be a one-page abstract in PDF format following ICCPS regular-paper formatting guidelines. All accepted abstracts will be published in the regular ICCPS Proceedings.
Demo Proposals, Poster abstracts, and WiP abstract should be submitted through the submission site. The title of submissions should start with “Demo Abstract:”, “Poster Abstract:” or “WiP Abstract:” according to the type of submission.
The demo session will provide a forum for researchers to showcase ongoing work and obtain feedback from the CPS community as a part of the joint poster/demo session of CPS Week. Demo proposals should clearly describe what will be demonstrated and how the contributions will be illustrated interactively. A table, power, and wireless connectivity will be provided for each demo. If a demonstration requires special arrangements in addition to the above, please describe them clearly in the demo submission.
The poster session will provide a forum for researchers to showcase ongoing work and obtain feedback from the CPS community as a part of the joint poster/demo session of CPS Week.
The Work-in-Progress session will provide a forum for researchers to present ongoing work and obtain feedback from the CPS community at ICCPS. Authors of accepted WiP abstracts will give a short oral presentation at the WiP session.
