Cyber physical systems (CPSs) typically have numerous sensors monitoring the various physical processes involved. Some sensor failures are inevitable and may have catastrophic effects. The relational nature of the diverse measurands can be very useful in detecting faulty sensors, monitoring the health of the system, and reducing false alarms. This paper provides procedures on how one may integrate data from the various sensors, by careful design of a sensor relationship network. Once such a network has been adopted, choices become available in real time for enhancing the reliability, safety, and performance of the overall system.

AbstractFederated learning (FL) is a distributed learning approach, which allows the distributed computing nodes to collaboratively develop a global model while keeping their data locally. However, the issues of privacy-preserving and performance improvement hinder the applications of the FL in the industrial cyber-physical systems (ICPSs). In this work, we propose a privacy-preserving momentum FL approach, named PMFL, which uses the momentum term to accelerate the model convergence rate during the training process. Furthermore, a fully homomorphic encryption scheme CKKS is adopted to encrypt the gradient parameters of the industrial agents’ models for preserving their local privacy information. In particular, the cloud server calculates the global encrypted momentum term by utilizing the encrypted gradients based on the momentum gradient descent optimization algorithm (MGD). The performance of the proposed PMFL is evaluated on two common deep learning datasets, i.e., MNIST and Fashion-MNIST. Theoretical analysis and experiment results confirm that the proposed approach can improve the convergence rate while preserving the privacy information of the industrial agents.

The trustworthiness of data is vital data analysis in the age of big data. In cyber-physical systems, most data is collected by sensors. With the increase of sensors as Internet of Things (IoT) nodes in the network, the security risk of data tampering, unauthorized access, false identify, and others are overgrowing because of vulnerable nodes, which leads to the great economic and social loss. This paper proposes a security scheme, Securing Nodes in IoT Perception Layer (SNPL), for protecting nodes in the perception layer. The SNPL is constructed by novel lightweight algorithms to ensure security and satisfy performance requirements, as well as safety technologies to provide security isolation for sensitive operations. A series of experiments with different types and numbers of nodes are presented. Experimental results and performance analysis show that SNPL is efficient and effective at protecting IoT from faulty or malicious nodes. Some potential practical application scenarios are also discussed to motivate the implementation of the proposed scheme in the real world.

Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are complex distributed heterogeneous systems which integrating cyber and physical processes by computation, communication and control. During interaction between cyber and physical world, the traditional theories and applications has been difficult to satisfy real-time performance and efficient. Cyber-physical systems clearly have a role to play in developing a new theory of computer-mediated physical systems. The aim of this work is to analysis the features and relation technology of CPS that get better understanding for this new field. We summarized the research progresses from different perspectives such as modeling, classical tools and applications. Finally, the research challenges for CPS are in brief outlined.

Abstract In this paper, a protocol-based controller is designed for Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) with multiple sensors, which are powered by environment-dependent energy harvesting (EDEH) devices, respectively. The Round-Robin (RR) protocol is adopted to coordinate the data transmission of sensors. The protocol-based transmission can be realized only when the energy harvested by EDEH devices is sufficient. The aim of this paper is to design the protocol-based controller to ensure the stochastic finite-time boundedness (FTB) with EDEH and RR protocol. Firstly, modeling the EDEH by a switching sequence with varying sojourn probabilities, assuming a finite battery capacity constraint, and associating protocol-based transmission with a given energy cost, we propose a new recursive model to depict the dynamic of energy levels for each sensor. Then, combining with stochastic analysis and the dynamic of energy levels, the explicit expressions of the controller for each environment with average dwell time (ADT) are obtained. Finally, an example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the designed controllers.
