Welcome to EITEC '18
Welcome to the home page of the 4th International Workshop on Emerging Ideas and Trends in Engineering
of Cyber-Physical Systems (EITEC’ 18). This workshop will be held as part of CPS Week 2018 to take place in
Porto, Portugal on April 11-13, 2018.
Cyber-physical systems are based on networked embedded software systems which connect computational entities in
a collaborative manner with physical entities of the real world to achieve an overall purpose of its users.
Together with available content and services on the World Wide Web, they build networks of systems that integrate
with the physical environment. This will lead to radical changes in many application fields (e.g. energy, mobility,
healthcare) and will have an impact on our daily lives. Many technology leaders are already in the midst of a global
race of repositioning and reinventing themselves by developing new dynamic CPS inspired business models. However,
mastering the engineering of complex and trustworthy CPS faces serious challenges, which have to be addressed by the
engineering methodologies of the future.
The EITEC workshop series aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners from various domains relevant to
CPS dedicated to mastering the challenges in engineering of CPS today and in the future. The workshop will be a venue
to share results and new ideas, discuss upcoming research directions, and to catalyze a joint industry-academia
platform that bridges the gap between scientific results and transfer into practice.
