Abstract

The successful development of Cyber-Physical Systems(CPSs) requires collaborative working across diverse engineering disciplines, notations and tools. However, classical computing curricula rarely provide opportunities for students to look beyond the confines of one set of methods. In this paper, we report approaches to raising students’awareness of the integrative role of digital technology in future systems development. Building on research in open but integrated tool chains for CPS engineering, we consider how this has been realised in two degree programmes in Denmark and the UK, and give preliminary findings. These include the need for ensuring stability of research-quality tools,and observations on how this material is presented in Computing versus Engineering curricula.
