Working Groups

Workshop attendees have been grouped into the 5 categories below corresponding to the classification of submitted position papers.  Please check your group membership below.    We have attempted to find the best possible match for each attendee, but under the constraint that we want the groups to be reasonably balanced in terms of size.  Please note that each application domain needs to have a system infrastructure of some kind, and an underlying science to build on.  Similarly, many capabilities from one domain will hopefully be usable across other domains.  Infrastructures, likewise, must be able to support multiple application domains.  Theory and science must be supplemented by available building blocks to construct working systems.   So, cross-pollination is essential.  We expect that the top-down views will meet head-on bottom up factors, and good ideas will be generated. 

Cyber-physical systems span the cyber-world and the physical world – so, expertise from both domains matter a lot, and cross-disciplinary bridges must continue to be built.
