Abstract

We propose specific practices for managing Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) development projects. Our approach is named CPS-PMBOK as it is based on the Project Management Institute’s PMBOK body of knowledge. CPS-PMBOK is focused on the integration, scope, human resource and stakeholder knowledge areas; which were chosen considering some particularities of CPS, such as multidisciplinary team and high innovative aspect. The proposed approach was assessed with managers and developers of a R&D organization, who identified that the proposed practices can improve several aspects related to CPS projects.
