Our Goal

Today’s distributed and networked systems, saturated with large-scale communications and computing, have become increasingly complex. New solutions are urgently required to effectively tackle the soaring complexities of such systems. The Technical Committee on Cyber-Physical Cloud Systems aims to explore fundamental methodologies and technologies for engineering self-organized distributed and networked computing and communications systems. Of particular interest are the following areas:

  • cloud computing and services for cyber-physical systems
  • big data analytics and services for cyber-physical systems
  • context-aware computing for cyber-physical systems
  • Internet of Things, ubiquitous/pervasive computing
  • multi-agent systems and distributed simulation for cyber-physical systems
  • security challenges in cyber-physical cloud systems
  • service-oriented computing architectures, web services for cyber-physical systems
  • situated and autonomic communications in cyber-physical systems
  • wireless ad hoc networking, autonomic networking in cyber-physical systems
  • cyber-physical cloud systems for smart city, smart energy grid
  • industrial cyber-physical cloud systems

Join Us

The Technical Committee on Cyber-Physical Cloud Systems aims to be the focal forum worldwide for academics and practitioners active in the frontiers of cyber-physical cloud systems. We warmly welcome and highly value your support and involvement in the Technical Committee, which in return will provide you with a global network of excellence and a wide spectrum of collaboration opportunities in the community, e.g., in editing Journal special issues and book series, and organizing invited sessions and workshops which are technically supported by the Technical Committee. In particular, we organize Special Sessions, Workshops and/or Tutorial Sessions at the annual IEEE SMCS conferences, and contribute towards the technical initiatives of IEEE SMCS (e.g., thematic books on Systems Science and Engineering) and technical activities of IEEE SMCS chapters around the world.
