Theoretical Foundation of Cyber Physical Systems and Internet of Things (IoTs).

Abstract

The study is aimed at presenting basic inventory of Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) vis-à-vis Internet of Things (IoTs) and also present current research issues and challenges in this aspect of computing and development. Despite the non clear cut difference between IoTs and CPS especially with regards to Health Systems, CPS connects the physical processes with embedded systems without necessarily making use of the internet as a medium of connection. Therefore, there is no CPS without IoT, and the implementation of IoT in a physical system will lead to a CPS. The study further justified the differences in terms of its Architecture/correlation, application areas and future benefits
