Task-Based Design of Cyber-Physical Systems – Meeting Representational Requirements with S-BPM

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Communications in Computer and Information Science ((CCIS,volume 1278))

Abstract

This paper explores representational capabilities of S-BPM for task-based CPS design, in order to meet Cyber-Physical System particularities throughout development and operation. Essential functional properties of CPS are derived from conceptual and empirical studies. As tasks are the foundation for functional design of operational support systems, they need to be captured when developing CPS. In this contribution, we focus on representing tasks that form the basis of stakeholder communication. The analysis of notational S-BPM capabilities reveals the need for contextual introduction and application of interaction and behavior diagrams, when S-BPM models should add value to CPS development activities.
