===========================================================================
1st Workshop on Cyber-Physical Social Systems (CPSS) 2019
University of Deusto, Avenida de las universidades, 24 48007 Bilbao (Spain)
October 22-25, 2019 - https://cpss.netsons.org/

in conjunction with the 9th International Conference on the Internet of
Things (IoT 2019)
===========================================================================

MISSION:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) are related to the integration of computing
and communication capabilities into physical systems. An example of CPSs is
the smart city model, which is growing around the prototype of an urban
(physical) environment with a new generation of innovative services for
transportation, energy distribution, healthcare, environmental monitoring,
business, emergency response, and social activities developed in its
digital twins. Smart cities are also an example of how CPSs must include
the presence of people, which can’t be neglected in the loop of producing,
collecting and consuming data, information and services.
Enabling the technology for such a setting requires a viewpoint of Smart
Cities as system of cyber-physical and social systems (SCPSSs) which are
the result of the integration of several technologies that cooperate to
provide seamless services to end users. Such technologies enable the
collection, storage, and processing of massive amount of data gathered from
the environment and/or produced by citizens themselves. Social interactions
amongst participants are promoted as well.CPSS 2019 wants to present
innovative research trends and to explore new challenges in the field of
smart cities as a system of cyber – physical systems crossed with the
social perspective. The aim of the workshop is to bring together
researchers, practitioners, smart city operators and industries working in
the field in order to cross-fertilize theoretical and practical aspects.
