Abstract

Cyber-Physical Systems have emerged in recent years as a new technological revolution to support a collection of devices in the execution of physical processes. In mobility scenarios the execution context is in continuous change. Thus, Context-aware Cyber-Physical Systems must be adapted to this situation to provide services optimally. This paper proposes mechanisms for profile selection and consistency checking for a flexible service provision in context-aware cyber-physical systems. These mechanisms are validated through an experimentation, by studying the reaction of the proposed system to changes in context.
