A Cyber Physical System (CPS) combines software components with electronic, mechanical parts in a highly complex network. Control and data exchange often take place in real time via the Internet. The formation of Cyber Physical Systems arises from the networking of embedded systems through wired or wireless communication networks. In the future, CPS will be able to communicate with networked, intelligent production and logistics units in the production phase, thus restructuring and optimizing industrial processes.
