CPS and IoT both refer to trends in integrating digital capabilities, including network connectivity, with physical devices and systems. wo models provide the bases for a unified CPS/IoT perspective. A unified components model provides 4 categories for CPS and IoT systems components: logical, physical, transducing, and human. A unified interactions model provides a formal basis for describing the performance of CPS and IoT systems. The unified perspective can be expressed as follows: Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical Systems comprise interacting logical, physical, and human components engineered for function through integrated logic and physics. Three criteria based on a characteristic set of components, capabilities, and functions are proposed for interchangeably labeling a system ‘CPS' or ‘IoT'.

Information security, refers to “the processes and methodologies which are designed and implemented to protect print, electronic, or any other form of confidential, private and sensitive information or data from unauthorized access, use, misuse, disclosure, destruction, modification, or disruption. Whereas, Cybersecurity refers to “the practice of protecting systems, networks and programs from digital attacks,” and Network security, refers to “the process of taking physical and software preventative measures to protect the underlying networking infrastructure from unauthorized access, misuse, malfunction, modification, destruction, or improper disclosure, thereby creating a secure platform for computers, users and programs to perform their permitted critical functions within a secure environment.”

Material science and engineering offer the opportunity for revolutionary advances in both basic science and technology, and in various technical fields. Nanotechnology, a branch of material science, has created an urgent need for a more robust quantitative understanding of matter at different scales via modeling and simulation. Advances in the computer technology have enabled the modeling and simulation of complex systems with millions of degrees of freedom. Although we are capable of fabricating various nano-devices, we lack the ability to incorporate them into complex systems and do not fully understand the theoretical intricacies of such systems. Therefore, this area of research has an excellent opportunity to understand the computational aspect of Materials Science.
