In this paper, we present an open-source Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) simulation framework that aims to address the limitations of currently available tools. Our solution models the computing devices of the processing nodes and the network that comprise the CPS system and thus provides cycle accurate results, realistic communications and power/energy consumption estimates based on the actual dynamic usage scenarios. The simulator provides the necessary hooks to security testing software and can be extended through an IEEE standardized interface to include additional tools, such as simulators of physical models.
