Abstract
Typical assumptions for research in quality and security assurance and improvement for small software-intensive systems may not hold for long-running technical systems, such as critical infrastructure or industrial production systems. Therefore, researchers in quality and security assurance and improvement can benefit from better understanding challenges on quality and security assurance and quality improvement coming from the engineering of Complex Cyber-Physical Systems based on the use cases and requirements presented. This chapter summarizes and reflects on the material presented in this book regarding challenges and solutions for Security and Quality of Complex Cyber-Physical Systems (C-CPS) Engineering. Contributions in this book consider requirements, risks, and solutions to improve the security and quality of C-CPS. Engineers and project managers will be enabled to identify quality and security challenges they should consider. In addition, the chapter describes measures to assist the involved staff in handling the identified challenges. The chapter discusses the contributions of the chapters to the Research Questions raised in Chap. 1 of this book.
