Such systems emphasize the link between cyber spa ce and physical environment (i.e.\, time\, space\, and energy). CPS repres ents the next generation of complex engineering systems. They are large sc ale dynamic systems that offer significant processing power while interact ing across communication networks.\n\nRFID was one of the early technology that facilitated interfacing the physical world with the cyber space. RFI D was mainly developed to monitor and track objects in real time. The RFID applications in CPS systems are more sophisticated and appealing. As a ma tter of fact the emergence of CPS has given RFID a new life.\n\nCPS will h elp to solve the grand challenges of our society\, such as\, aging populat ion\, limited resources\, sustainability\, environment\, mobility\, securi ty\, health care\, etc. Applications of CPS cover a wide band of economic\ , medical\, and entertainment sectors. It includes\; Transportation: autom obiles\, avionics\, unmanned vehicles and smart roads\; Large Scale Critic al Infrastructure: bridges\, mega buildings\, power grid\, defense systems \; Health Care: medical devices\, health management networks\, telemedicin e\; Consumer Electronics: video games\, audio/video processing\, and mobil e communication.\n\nBuilding Cyber-Physical Systems is not a trivial task. The difficulty arises from the existing gap in modeling and computing of the physical and cyber environments. The design process require new theori es\, models\, and algorithms that unify both environments in one framework . None of the current state-of-the art methods are able to overcome the ch allenges of developing the unified CPS design paradigm.\n\nSeveral of thes e issues will be discussed in this talk. Case studies of real world CPSs w ill be illustrated.\n\nBiography:\n\nDr. Magdy A. Bayoumi is the Z.L.
