This new work explores the growth of information and communication technologies with an emphasis on cyber-physical systems and security management of these systems. This volume discusses and analyzes the various effective practical applications of CPS, which involves the integration of the physical process with embedded computation and network monitoring along with feedback loops from physical systems.

The authors identify the best set of applications and discuss the drawbacks of existing systems. The book provides a broad outlook on the applications of cyber-physical systems along with case studies and examples in healthcare, automotive electronics, industrial automation, environment monitoring, agriculture, and applications in civil and mechanical sectors. Topics include using an energy management system in smart grids, implementing an intelligent traffic management system, warehouse tracking and monitoring, medical cyber-physical systems security, remote healthcare monitoring, and more.
