Autonomous cyber-physical systems are systems that tightly integrate information technology with the physical world, enabling autonomous operation and intelligent decision-making. In these systems, the computational component (the cyber part) monitors, analyzes, and controls the physical world (the physical part), allowing them to operate and make decisions without continuous human supervision.
