Book excerpt: In recent years, the transformation of devices and systems into intelligent, interconnected entities has given rise to concepts widely recognized as the Internet of Things (IoT) and cyber-physical systems (CPSs). The integration of social networks with CPSs leads to an innovative paradigm known as cyber-physical-social systems (CPSSs). The CPSS, harmonizing the cyber, physical, and social spaces, constitutes the next evolution of intelligent systems. It is founded on the integration of embedded systems, computer networks, control theory, and sensor networks. A typical CPSS is comprised of sensors, controllers, actuators, and communication networks. Its salience is found in the seamless connection of physical devices to the Internet and social networks, thereby imbuing these devices with capabilities such as computation, communication, precise control, remote coordination, and autonomy. The applicability of CPSS spans diverse fields, including intelligent transportation systems, telemedicine, smart grid technology, aerospace, smart home appliances, environmental monitoring, intelligent buildings, defense systems, and weaponry. Thus, CPSS stands as a vital component in a nation's essential infrastructure."
