*** IMPORTANT DATES ***
Submission of full papers: April 10, 2021 Notification of
acceptance: June 10, 2021
Camera-ready copies due: June 30, 2021
Workshop date : September 27 - 30, 2021
*** PUBLICATION ***
The workshop papers will be published by Springer in
"Communications in Computer and Information Science." Best papers
of the workshop, after further revisions and independent reviews,
will be considered for publication in a special issue of Wiley
Journal of Software: Evolution and Process (IF 1.178).
*** SCOPE ***
The design of modern Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) comprises
systems of systems that include several heterogeneous components.
Manufacturers of such systems have to address several networking,
dynamic and uncertain environmental constraints. CPSs are often
safety-critical, i.e., any malfunctioning of the system may
seriously harm its user. However, the involved communicating
peripherals also necessitate the consideration of security issues,
so that the proper functioning of a CPS is not affected by
cyber-security threats.
The engineering of a CPS requires high safety integrity levels and
strong assurances for their fitness for public use against safety
hazards and cyber-security threats. Considering safety and
security requirements in the design of CPS increases their
reliability, confidentiality, integrity, and availability. This
also ensures the continuous provision and protection of essential
services and assets. However, contemporary systems and software
engineering methods and approaches are often not adequate for the
high-confidence design and manufacturing of CPSs. This is
especially true within the era of artificial intelligence.
The overall aim of this workshop is to address a broad range of
issues related to cyber-security, functional safety and their
interplay within the context of CPSs – including but not limited
to:
- Functional safety, cyber-security and their interplay
- Model-driven engineering
- Privacy and confidentiality
- Specification, verification and validation
- System architecture, design, decisions and tradeoffs, e.g.,
correct-by-design or privacy-by-design
- Security, safety and CPSs in the era of artificial intelligence,
machine learning and deep learning
- Regulation, homologation, legalization and certification
- Case studies, experience reports, benchmarking and best
practices
- Healthcare, transportation, aerospace, energy, robotics,
finance, business, etc.
*** SUBMISSION GUIDELINES ***
In order to encourage participation and discussion, this workshop
solicits two types of submissions - regular papers and short
papers:
- Regular paper submissions about original work not exceeding 10
pages.
- Short paper submissions on recent or ongoing work on relevant
topics and ideas not exceeding 5 pages.
Formatting guidelines:

*** REVIEW PROCESS ***
Submissions to the workshop must not have been published or be
concurrently considered for publication elsewhere. All submissions
will be peer-reviewed by, at least, 3 reviewers and judged on the
basis of originality, contribution to the field, technical and
presentation quality, and relevance to the workshop. Short papers
are meant for timely discussion and feedback at the workshop.
