Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) combine software and physical components. These systems are widely applied in society within many domains, including the automotive, aerospace, railway, etc. Testing these systems is extremely challenging, therefore, it has attracted significant attention from the research community. A driving CPS testing technique in industry is simulation-based testing. However, this poses significant challenges. In this new-idea paper we present a novel approach to enhance the testing processes of CPSs. This novel approach is motivated with examples and open questions.
The recent advancement of information and communication technology makes digitalisation of an entire manufacturing shop-floor possible where physical processes are tightly intertwined with their cyber counterparts. This led to an emergence of a concept of digital twin, which is a realistic virtual copy of a physical object. Digital twin will be the key technology in Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS) and its market is expected to grow significantly in the coming years. Nevertheless, digital twin is still relatively a new concept that people have different perspectives on its requirements…
A Digital Twin (DT) is a digital representation of a physical object used to simulate it before it is built or to predict failures after the object is deployed. In this article, we introduce our approach, which applies the concept of a Cyber Digital Twin (CDT) to automotive software for the purpose of security analysis. In our approach, automotive firmware is transformed into a CDT, which contains automatically extracted, security-relevant information from the firmware. Based on the CDT, we evaluate security requirements through automated analysis and requirements verification using policy enf…

Digital twins (DT) of industrial processes have become increasingly important. They aim to digitally represent the physical world to help evaluate, optimize, and predict physical processes and behaviors. Therefore, DT is a vital tool to improve production automation through digitalization and becomes more sophisticated due to rapidly evolving simulation and modeling capabilities, integration of IoT sensors with DT, and high-capacity cloud/edge computing infrastructure. However, the fidelity and reliability of DT software are essential to represent the physical world. This paper shows an automa…
Industrial Product-Service Systems (IPSS) are increasingly dominant in several sectors. Predominant value-adding services provided for industrial assets such as production systems, electric power plants, and car fleets are remote asset maintenance, monitoring, control, and reconfiguration. IPSS designers lack methods and tools supporting them in systematically deriving technical design requirements for the underlying Cyber-Physical System (CPS) IPSS services. At the same time, the use of Digital Twins (DTs) as digital representations of CPS as-sets is becoming increasingly feasible thanks to p…

Endowed with automation and connectivity, Connected and Automated Vehicles are meant to be a revolutionary promoter for Cooperative Driving Automation. Nevertheless, CAVs need high-fidelity perception information on their surroundings, which is available but costly to collect from various onboard sensors as well as vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications. Therefore, authentic perception information based on high-fidelity sensors via a cost-effective platform is crucial for enabling CDA-related research, e.g., cooperative decision-making or control. Most state-of-the-art traffic simulation s…
