Big Data Meet Cyber-Physical Systems: A Panoramic Survey

Abstract

The world is witnessing an unprecedented growth of cyber-physical systems (CPS), which are foreseen to revolutionize our world via creating new services and applications in a variety of sectors such as environmental monitoring, mobilehealth systems, intelligent transportation systems and so on. The information and communication technology (ICT) sector is experiencing a significant growth in data traffic, driven by the widespread usage of smartphones, tablets and video streaming, along with the significant growth of sensors deployments that are anticipated in the near future. It is expected to outstandingly increase the growth rate of raw sensed data. In this paper, we present the CPS taxonomy via providing a broad overview of data collection, storage, access, processing and analysis. Compared with other survey papers, this is the first panoramic survey on big data for CPS, where our objective is to provide a panoramic summary of different CPS aspects. Furthermore, CPS require cybersecurity to protect them against malicious attacks and unauthorized intrusion, which become a challenge with the enormous amount of data that is continuously being generated in the network. Thus, we also provide an overview of the different security solutions proposed for CPS big data storage, access and analytics. We also discuss big data meeting green challenges in the contexts of CPS.

Managing digital transformation of smart cities through enterprise architecture – a review and research agenda

“…The application architecture provides application services centric view of systems that ties business functions and smart services to application components alignment (Atat et al 2018). The application architecture encompasses applications that process, utilise and transform processed data, analysed data and third-party data (for improvement of smart services or analytics) sources into useful information (Wu et al 2016;.…”

Quantitative social relations based on trust routing algorithm in opportunistic social network

“…attached to mobile nodes [4]. The real-time information such as the activity rules and interaction records of the nodes can be obtained in real time to analyze the key feature influencing the social relations and explore the internal relations among them [16,17]. Quantifying social relations can more objectively and accurately reflect the changes in the relationship between mobile nodes.…”

“…Through the above analysis, it can be seen that social relations are inherent manifestations of different modes of interaction among nodes and involve a variety of factors. Considering the complex and diverse characteristics [16,17,19] of the interaction patterns among nodes in the information delivery service for opportunistic social networks, we introduce various types of decision features to describe the spatial and temporal characteristics of social relations of nodes. Through the collection, analysis of the history record of connections between nodes and calculating interactive quality feature Q between each other, the interaction rules between each other are found out.…”

Integration of Cyber-Physical Systems in EScience Environment: State-of-the-Art, Problems and Effective Solutions

“…When considering e-science as a single system; we see that it solves problems from different subsystems. Information support of science, scientometric analysis, intelligent analysis, and scientific data lead to the generation of big data [29]. The integration of CPS into this environment also plays the role of a generator for quickly increasing big data.…”
