INSE 4248U – Industrial Cyber‐Physical Systems

The scope of the course moves towards the implementation of Industry 4.0 principles in manufacturing systems while looking at Industry 4.0‐based characteristics that lead to build smart factories. This includes the requirement for digitalization, sensors and inspection, data collection, connectivity, data analytics, computational tasks, closedloop feedbacks, and control capabilities. This course covers the theoretical and technological aspects of Cyber‐Physical Systems (CPS) requirement for the fourth industrial revolution. CPS are envisioned as one of the most promising transformative technological concepts leading to build the smart factories. CPS combine a cyber side including computation and networking with the physical side including processes (eg. mechanical, electrical, or manufacturing) and hardware logistics in an industrial platform to enhance the capabilities of production systems in terms of their agility, dependability, sustainability, and resilience.
