Extensible CPS must maintain resilience despite changing resources, applications, and failure modes. This work innovates by providing a unified platform approach supporting both design-time analysis of system resilience and runtime reconfiguration mechanisms enabling autonomous adaptation to failures without external intervention.
This work addresses platform design for resilient and extensible cyber-physical systems through design-time and runtime mechanisms. It presents CHARIOT, a platform with goal-based system descriptions supporting extensible CPS with autonomous resilience capabilities. The work emphasizes resilience as a key requirement for systems handling multiple failure modes.
The CHARIOT platform demonstrates successful modeling and management of resilient CPS applications through goal-based descriptions and self-reconfiguration. Experimental validation shows runtime configuration point computation enabling system adaptation to failures. The approach validates autonomous resilience capability for distributed CPS applications.

abstract = {Extensible Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are loosely connected, multi-domain platforms that "virtualize" their resources to provide an open platform capable of hosting different cyber-physical applications. These cyber- physical platforms are extensible since resources and applications can be added or removed at any time. However, realizing such platform requires resolving challenges emanating from different properties; for this paper, we focus on resilience. Resilience is important for extensible CPS to make sure that extensibility of a system doesn't result in failures and anomalies.},
