Real-time Cyber-Physical Systems transatlantic engineering curricula framework

Abstract

How to educate future engineers, so that they acquired new skills and competences to become developers of Cyber Physical Systems (CPS)? The paper demonstrates a curriculum framework that was developed and successfully implemented some years ago, as an outcome of two international projects undertaken by a consortium of the European and American universities. The projects had focused on special category of CPS - Real-Time CPS. Examples of laboratory environment supporting education in the field of Real Time CPS are given in the paper.
