Abstract
A distributed cyber-physical system includes physical elements (---n) disposed in a physical space (). Controllers (---n) are disposed in a cyber space (). Each of the physical elements (---n) corresponds to a corresponding controller (---n). A cyber infrastructure () is disposed in the cyber space (). The cyber infrastructure () manages a connection between the controllers (---n) and the physical elements (---n). Control loops () are established via the cyber infrastructure (). Each of the control loops () includes a physical element and a corresponding controller. A resilient control agent () is configured to monitor each of the control loops (), determine when one of the control loops () is experiencing an adverse condition, reduce a sampling frequency of the control loops () that are not experiencing the adverse condition, and increase a sampling frequency of the control loop () that is experiencing the adverse condition.
