Welcome to the second IEEE International workshop on Communication, Computing, and Networking in Cyber Physical Systems (CCNCPS 2018) In association with IEEE International Conference on Communications (IEEE ICC 2018). The workshop will take place in Kansas City, MO, USA in May 20-24, 2018.
The new paradigms and tremendous advances in computing, communications and control have provided and supported wide range of applications in all domains of life, in particular, bridging the physical components and the cyber space leading to the Cyber Physical Systems (CPS). The notion of CPS is to use recent computing, communication, and control methods to design and operate intelligent and autonomous systems using cutting edge technologies. This requires the use of computing resources for sensing, processing, analysis, predicting, understanding of data, and then communication resources for interaction, intervention, and interface management, and finally provide control for systems so that they can inter-operate, evolve, and run in a stable evidence-based environment. CPS has extraordinary significance for the future of several industrial domains and hence, it is expected that the complexity in CPS will continue to increase due to the integration of cyber components with physical and industrial systems. This workshop solicits unpublished research work related to the latest challenges, technologies, solutions, techniques and fundamentals pertaining to communication, computing, networking, control.

Massive Content Sharing over Cyber-Physical Systems
Liang Zhou (Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, China)
Room: Chicago A
Title: Massive Content Sharing over Cyber-Physical Systems
Abstract: Massive multimedia services have been considered as one the most prominent characteristics for Cyber-Physical Systems. In this work, we propose an energy-efficient content delivery system via the device-to-device communications, which realizes the large-scale content delivery among mobile devices with constrained energy, unpredictable demand, limited storage, random mobility, and opportunistic transmission. The highlights of this work lie in two parts. On the theoretical end, through exploring the relationship among the coding, storage, and transmission, a systematic energy-saving content delivery fashion is investigated. On the technical end, a totally distributed content delivery system is designed in a simple and efficient manner, in which each device only utilizes local information to make decisions and implements its own scheme individually. Importantly, the proposed scheme is realized in a practical smart city system, and numerical results demonstrate that it is flexible to various users' needs and communication environments.
Bio: Liang Zhou received his Ph.D. degree major at Electronic Engineering both from Ecole Normale Superieure (E.N.S.), Cachan, France and Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, China in March 2009. From 2010 to 2011, he was a Humboldt Research Fellow in Technical University of Munich, Munich, Germany. Now, he is a professor in Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, China. His research interests are in the area of multimedia communications and networks, in particular, resource allocation and scheduling, multimedia security, multimedia signal processing. He currently serves as an editor for IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology (2013-), IEEE Transactions on Multimedia (2014-), IEEE Network (2018-) and guest editor for IEEE Systems Journal (2011), EURASIP Journal of Wireless Communications and Networking (2011). He also serves as Co-Chair and Technical Program Committee (TPC) member for a number of international conferences and workshops (e.g., IEEE Globecom'10-18, IEEE ICC'10-18 etc.).
