Towards human-centered cyber-physical systems : a modeling approach

Hadorn, Benjamin ; Courant, Michèle ; Hirsbrunner, Béat

(Internal working papers DIUF ; 16-01)

In this paper we present a new CPS model that considers humans as holistic beings, where mind and body operate as a whole and characteristics like creativity and empathy emerge. These characteristics influence the way humans interact and collaborate with technical systems. Our vision is to integrate humans as holistic beings within CPS in order to move towards a human-machine symbiosis. This...
