Call for Papers
Workshop 'Standardisation of Cyber-Physical Systems'
in conjunction with INFORMATIK 2016
30 September 2016
The ongoing mergers of formerly separate technical sectors may eventually change the whole standardisation landscape. Examples of such mergers include e.g. Intelligent Transport Systems (ICT, transport telematics, traffic engineering), electric vehicles (ICT, automotive, power supply), e-health (ICT, medicine) and, perhaps ultimately, Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS; ICT and pretty much everything else).
For CPSs, hard requirements on e.g. reliability and response times imply that often technologies will need to be co-developed (as opposed to be integrated ex-post). Such co-development will require very close co-operation between the different technical disciplines. This represents a considerable problem also for standards setting. Standards Setting Organisations (SSOs) with very different cultures and from equally different backgrounds with very diverse technology life cycles will need to co-operate. On top of that, CPSs in general and specifically applications like e-health need to address issues of information security and safety and of trust up-front.
The WS aims to discuss how standardisation of (e)merging technologies should be managed from a European perspective. This includes trying to find answers to questions like (among others)
- How can cross-disciplinary standardisation be achieved? - Is there a need for closer collaboration between the European Standards Organisations (ESOs) and private standards consortia? If so, how could this be organised? - Could there be benefits in actively encouraging and founding (EU-led) consortia specifically targeting CPSs? - How could co-operation between ESOs and their international counterparts (ISO, IEC, ITU) be improved? - Is increased co-operation with emerging powerful players from China desirable in the field of CPSs? - How can conditions that improve the link between R&D and standardisation in the field of CPSs be established? - How can all relevant stakeholder groups be adequately involved in the process? - Which role could and should the European Commission play in this process?
