The introduction of Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) systems into vehicles make them more prone to cyber-security attacks. Such attacks may impact on vehicles capability and, consequently, on the safety of drivers, passengers. Indeed, the strong integration between dedicated ICT devices, the physical environment, and the networking infrastructure, leads to consider modern vehicles as Cyber-Physical Systems.
This workshop aims at providing a forum for researchers and engineers in academia and industry to foster an exchange of research results, experiences, and products in the automotive domain from both a theoretical and practical perspective.
Its ultimate goal is to envision new trends and ideas about aspects of designing, implementing, and evaluating innovative solutions for the Cyber-Physical Systems with a particular focus on the new generation of vehicles.
Indeed, the automotive domain presents several challenges in the fields of vehicular network, Internet of Things, Privacy, as well as, Safety and Security methods and approaches.
The workshop aims at presenting the advancement on the state of art in these fields and spreading their adoption in several scenarios involving main stockholders of the automotive domain.

Title. Connected vehicles: challenges and opportunities.
Abstract. Connectivity and telematics services are rapidly transforming the automotive industry, turning vehicles into complex, connected Cyber-Physical Systems. Clearly, this brings great opportunities for automotive companies and information service providers in developing new connected end-user services, as well as powerful ICT-based tools for automotive product development. However, there are also a number of problems arising when connecting vehicles to a communication infrastructure, including cyber-security issues, safety and privacy issues. To overcome these challenges and to explore and unleash the innovation potentials of novel connected vehicular services, automotive developers must change their product development process to accommodate for security by design, while at the same time being highly agile and responsive to user needs, using tools and methods enabling fast iterative development, rapid prototyping, proof of concept testing and continuous integration. This ability will be key to success in the development of next generation connected products and services in the automotive sector.
