“…Furthermore, several recent ICS testbeds for investigating cyber security are developed in the literature and Table 1 presents comparisons among these testbeds for diverse range of applications that are based on TYPE (simulation (S), physical (P), real ICS (R), and hybrid (H)), Process, Data Type (network data (NET) and process data (PR)), Detection Method, Attacks, Attack Type (emulation (E) and physical (P)). As shown in this table, in [17]- [25] cyber-physical testbeds are developed for the physical water system and different case studies in terms of data type, communication and attack injection/detection are presented. In [17], a modelbased detection approach is developed to detect three different attacks by using network data.…”

Due to recent increase in deployment of Cyber-Physical Industrial Control Systems in different critical infrastructures, addressing cyber-security challenges of these systems is vital for assuring their reliability and secure operation in presence of malicious cyber attacks. Towards this end, developing a testbed to generate real-time data-sets for critical infrastructure that would be utilized for validation of realtime attack detection algorithms are indeed highly needed. This paper investigates and proposes the design and implementation of a cyber-physical industrial control system testbed where the Tennessee Eastman process is simulated in real-time on a PC and the closed-loop controllers are implemented on the Siemens PLCs. False data injection cyber attacks are injected to the developed testbed through the man-in-the-middle structure where the malicious hackers can in real-time modify the sensor measurements that are sent to the PLCs. Furthermore, various cyber attack detection algorithms are developed and implemented in real-time on the testbed and their performance and capabilities are compared and evaluated.

“…In gas transmission [161,162], SCADA system controls and monitors moisture, quantity, pressure, and temperature of the network of pipelines. In water distribution systems, cyber-attacks can be considered to control unexpected scenarios that can potentially produce shortages and can reduce the water quality for public consumption [163,164]. In the case of smart-grids, cyber-attacks can cause damage at connecting physical assets [165,166].…”

Multi-Agent Systems and Complex Networks: Review and Applications in Systems Engineering

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Systems engineering is an ubiquitous discipline of Engineering overlapping industrial, chemical, mechanical, manufacturing, control, software, electrical, and civil engineering. It provides tools for dealing with the complexity and dynamics related to the optimisation of physical, natural, and virtual systems management. This paper presents a review of how multi-agent systems and complex networks theory are brought together to address systems engineering and management problems. The review also encompasses current and future research directions both for theoretical fundamentals and applications in the industry. This is made by considering trends such as mesoscale, multiscale, and multilayer networks along with the state-of-art analysis on network dynamics and intelligent networks. Critical and smart infrastructure, manufacturing processes, and supply chain networks are instances of research topics for which this literature review is highly relevant.Processes 2020, 8, 312 2 of 29 in a telecommunication system network, nodes (e.g., routers and switches) may suffer over time a degradation in their properties that may lead them to diminish their performance. However, just the daily variation on traffic demand also has an impact on such nodes performance. Unexpected, external intervention such as cyber-attacks or extreme weather conditions may affect the properties, even the topology of a telecommunication system.Intelligent distributed systems are capable of modelling how different parts of the network might work individually and collectively [10]. Ultimately, this is used as support for any decision-making system aiming to achieve better overall system functioning and its consequent performance. Intelligent distributed systems encompass autonomous learning units that can be associated with the nodes of a complex network. These intelligent network nodes are able to act independently and also interact with other nodes to pursue both individual (local) and general system-level targets. The necessary communication between individuals can be represented by links of the complex network connecting their nodes. It is natural to understand such nodes as intelligent agents within a MAS framework. Each agent separately obeying simple rules but working together with other agents makes it possible to approach complex engineering challenges. Intelligent distributed systems have been proposed in a broad range of engineered complex systems [11,12]. Precisely, the review proposed herein focuses only on engineered systems and manufacturing processes, given the wide spectrum of the approached topic. Out of this review fall, then, topics related to social systems analysis such as migration models [13,14] or online social media [15,16]. Similarly, natural systems are out of this review scope. This is the case of computational chemistry [17,18], biology [19,20], and metabolic networks [21,22].Automatic optimisation and control in an engineering system is associated with a near real-time data acquisition and an optimal decision-making.
