  • Cyber-Physical Systems are tight integration of computation, networking and physical objects to sense, monitor, and control the physical world. This paper presents a novel architecture that combines two next generation technologies i.e. cyber-physical systems and Cloud computing to develop a ubiquitous healthcare based infrastructure. Through this infrastructure, patients and elderly people get remote assistance, monitoring of their health conditions and medication while living in proximity of home. Consequently, this leads to major cost savings. However, there are various challenges that need to be overcome before building such systems. These challenges include making system real-time responsive, reliability, stability and privacy. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an architecture that deals with these challenges.

  • This study presents a reference model (RM) and the architecture of a cognitive health advisor (CHA) that integrates information with ambient intelligence. By controlling the information using the CHA platform, the reference model can provide various ambient intelligent solutions to a user. Herein, a novel approach to a CHA RM based on evolutional cyber-physical systems is proposed. The objective of the CHA RM is to improve personal health by managing data integration from many devices as well as conduct a new feedback cycle, which includes training and consulting to improve quality of life. The RM can provide an overview of the basis for implementing concrete software architectures. The proposed RM provides a standardized clarification for developers and service designers in the design and implementation process. The CHA RM provides a new approach to developing a digital healthcare model that includes integrated systems, subsystems, and components. New features for chatbots and feedback functions set the position of the conversational interface system to improve human health by integrating information, analytics, and decisions and feedback as an advisor on the CHA platform.

  • Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are introduced as complex, interconnected systems that combine physical components with computational elements and networking capabilities. They bridge the gap between the physical world and the digital world, enabling the monitoring and control of physical processes through embedded computing systems and networked communication. These systems introduce several security challenges. These challenges, if not addressed, can lead to vulnerabilities that may result in substantial losses. Therefore, it is crucial to thoroughly examine and address the security concerns associated with CPS to guarantee the safe and reliable operation of these systems. To handle these security concerns, different existing security requirements methods are considered but they were unable to produce required results because they were originally developed for software systems not for CPS and they are obsolete methods for CPS. In this paper, a Security Requirements Engineering Methodology for CPS (CPS-SREM) is proposed. A comparison of state-of-the-art methods (UMLSec, CLASP, SQUARE, SREP) and the proposed method is done and it has demonstrated that the proposed method performs better than existing SRE methods and enabling experts to uncover a broader spectrum of security requirements specific to CPS. Conclusion: The proposed method is also validated using a case study of the healthcare system and the results are promising. The proposed model will provide substantial advantages to both practitioners and researcher, assisting them in identifying the security requirements for CPS in Industry 4.0.

  • Medical cyber-physical systems (MCPS) integrate sensors, actuators, and software to improve patient safety and quality of healthcare. These systems introduce major challenges to safety analysis because the patient's physiology is complex, nonlinear, unobservable, and uncertain. To cope with the challenge that unidentified physiological parameters may exhibit short-term variances in certain clinical scenarios, we propose a novel run-time predictive safety monitoring technique that leverages a maximal model coupled with online training of a computational virtual subject (CVS) set. The proposed monitor predicts safety-critical events at run-time using only clinically available measurements. We apply the technique to a surgical glucose control case study. Evaluation on retrospective real clinical data shows that the algorithm achieves 96% sensitivity with a low average false alarm rate of 0.5 false alarm per surgery.

  • This paper present about the system for sensing and controlling a wireless power transfer system using bluetooth protocol in robot, healthcare, smart-grid, and autonomous car. Recently a variety of applications using the Internet of Things (Internet of Things) and machine to machine (Machine to Machine) have been raised in many industries. To do this, it requires the fusion technology which is constituted with control, computing and networking. Embedded system is centered existing control system and Cyber Physical System(CPS) is the systems which was converged of a computing technologies using a wired or wireless network. CPS was adopted in the future government-led technology in the United States and Europe and is being pursued in cooperation with institutes, industries, and academia. In this paper, we implement and describe a technique for controlling the system for transmitting power wirelessly by sensing method using the matching of CPS technology concepts.
