Cyber-physical systems (CPS), integrate computing, communication and control<\/strong> using networks and physical processes. These systems allow companies to represent the reality of the physical world in digital environments. They are thus able to conduct simulations, tests, predictions, and many other possible operations that the technology offers. This can lead to important gains in competitiveness<\/strong> for a business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In practice, cyber-physical systems operate like this: computers and the integrated networks monitor the physical processes with sensors that generate data from operation of a certain machine or system. This information is replicated in a digital environment, online as a mirror, so that the conclusions can affect both sides, in a demonstration in the virtual environment or through actuators in the physical environment. It is important to highlight that this data must be reliable and secure <\/a>so that it can support decision making with an acceptable level of risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cyber-physical systems can provide abstractions and options in modeling, design and analysis in an integrated manner. This is a relatively new concept and solution and about which much is said when examining digital transformation at companies. However, there is still strong unexplored potential for use of this technology, which is in development and being improved throughout the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sectors that have most benefited from the creation of cyber-physical systems are those that involve large infrastructure and costly operations, <\/strong>such as the oil and gas industry, electrical energy generation (power plants, dams, wind turbines, solar, etc.) and distribution (transmission lines), aviation, heavy machinery, and others, but also those that produce critical goods and services, and that should be very careful in the analysis of their risks. Failures in these sectors can cause significant losses or even the loss of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
