description | Cyber–Physical–Social Systems (CPSS) integrate the cyber, physical, and social spaces together. One of the ultimate goals of cyber–physical–social systems is to make our lives more convenient and intelligent by providing prospective and personalized services for users. To achieve this goal, a wide range of data in CPSS are employed as the starting point for research, since the data contain the users’ historical behavior trajectory and the users’ demand preference. Generated and collected from social and physical spaces and integrated into the cyberspace, CPSS data are complex and heterogeneous, recording all aspects of users’ lives in the forms of image, audio, video, and text. Generally, the collected or generated data in CPSS satisfy the 4Vs (volume, variety, velocity, and veracity) of big data. Thus, knowing how to deal with CPSS big data efficiently is the key to providing services for users. From another perspective, CPSS big data are specified as the global historical data and the local real-time data. Cloud computing, as a powerful paradigm for implementing the data-intensive applications, has an irreplaceable role in processing global historical data. On the other hand, with the increasing computing capacity and communication capabilities of mobile terminal devices, fog-edge computing, as an important and effective supplement of cloud computing, has been widely used to process local real-time data. Therefore, the question of how to systematically and efficiently process CPSS big data (including both the global historical data and the local real-time data) in CPSS has become the key for providing services. The goal of this Special Section is therefore to provide insights and views into the area of Cloud-Fog-Edge Computing in CPSS, as well as to provide directions for research in the field. |
