Abstract

Recently, cyber-physical systems (CPS) have emerged as a promising direction to enrich the interactions between physical and virtual worlds. Because of the large-scale features of CPS, mobile agents (MA) technology can promote the performance of CPS. In this article, we first introduce the concept and characteristics of CPS, MA, and intelligent transportation system (ITS). Then, we propose the structure of intelligent transportation CPS (ITCPS). On this basis, giving the case of mobile agents for ITCPS, we exploit a mobile agent by three levels (node level, task level, and combined task level) to reduce the information redundancy and communication overhead. Finally, we in brief outline the technical challenges for ITCPS.
