CPS Week is the premier event on Cyber-Physical Systems. It brings 
together four top conferences, HSCC, ICCPS, IPSN, and RTAS, 
10-15 workshops, a localization competition, tutorials and various 
exhibitions from both industry and academia. Altogether the CPS Week 
program covers a multitude of complementary aspects of CPS, and 
reunites the leading researchers in this dynamic field.

CPS Week 2016 in Vienna, Austria will host 10-15 workshops (subject to room 
availability) and 2-3 tutorials on Monday April 11 and is soliciting proposals for 
new and recurring workshops as well as for tutorials. 

CPS Week workshops are excellent opportunities to bring together researchers 
and practitioners from different  communities to share their experiences in an 
interactive atmosphere and to foster collaboration for new and innovative 
projects. We invite you to  submit workshop proposals on any topic related 
to the broad set of research, education, and application areas in 
cyber-physical systems.
