报告摘要：

The inclusion of communication and computation capabilities into physical systems has made them more efficient and reliable. These physical plants are referred to as cyber-physical systems and pose new challenges to both engineers and scientists. In this talk, I will address two important issues involved with cyber-physical systems, namely, security and distributed estimation. In the first part of the talk, the security of cyber-physical systems is studied from system theory perspective. It is shown how zeros of cyber-physical systems can be used to construct concealable attacks. I also explain how semi-homomorphic encryption can be exploited to enhance the cyber-security of closed-loop networked systems. Then in the second part, an optimal distributed filter for state estimation in a network environment is illustrated.
