Information-Centric Sensor Networks for CPS

Common objectives for Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) include imbuing them with resiliency/self-healing, flexibility/adaptation, and enabling improved visibility, operational performance, automation/control, and decision making. A crucial component to realizing these objectives is the development of appropriate theoretical frameworks, tools, and techniques for assimilating the data and eliciting the actionable information required.  To this end, an information-theoretic framework is introduced wherein the constituent elements of the CPS are treated as information processors and the various physical phenomena associated with the CPS elements are viewed as communication signals.
