Cyber-Physical System

The Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) focuses on the integration of computational algorithms with physical processes to create intelligent, interconnected, and autonomous systems. This field combines expertise in control systems, networking, embedded computing, and data analytics to develop smart solutions with real-time sensing, processing, and actuation capabilities.
