Emerging needs of e-CPS: research e-CPS Interop erability Scale Controll ability Observa bility Optimal ity Security Dimensi onality Optimization in the presence of interoperability constraints Estimation in the presence of (real- time) data proliferation, uncertainties Power, communication, information, sensing, financial networks Data integrity, known/unkno wn undesirable pattern recognition Spatio-temporal power management and control with distributed functionalities under nominal and singular conditions Nano seconds to hours Some estimates: 100 X +

Emerging needs of e-CPS: education Recognize that while core disciplines need to be well understood, the research opportunities are emerging primarily at the intersection of these disciplines. New knowledge base (yielding new theoretical and laboratory-oriented courses) needs to be developed that addresses interdisciplinary and interfacial e-CPS education and delivered by next-generation e-CPS scholars and teachers. Recognize that e-CPS education is a shared responsibility among industry and academia and requires an open mind on the part of the students and emerging researchers and designers.
