The aim of this course is to provide an introduction to the basic principles of cyber and physical systems and fundamental applications. The main focus is on models of physical process, finite state machines, computation, converters between physical and cyber units, human-machine interaction, and digital networks.

Cyber-physical systems combine digital and analog devices, interfaces, networks, computer systems, and the like, with the natural and man-made physical world. The inherent interconnected and heterogeneous combination of behaviors in these systems makes their analysis and design an exciting and challenging task. The aim of Cyber-physical systems course is to provide an introduction to the basic principles of cyber and physical systems and fundamental applications. The main focus is on models of physical process, finite state machines, computation, converters between physical and cyber units, human-machine interaction, and digital networks. The planned content to be summarized for the course includes these topics: basic concepts, basic devices and sensors, embedded programming data processing and compression, network and protocols, ready-to-use platforms, programming basics, programming for data storage and communication, wearables, human-machine interfaces, robots and embedded systems.
