This panel explores the development of innovative, integrative, and versatile strategies to facilitate more practical and effective use of intelligent cyber-physical technologies from a variety of perspectives, including engineering, regulation, management, and research. With the same goal of sustaining the development of emerging technologies to best benefit our communities, this panel shares their different approaches in terms of engineering solutions for real-time controlling in cyber-physical systems, regulatory strategies to overcome the conflict between efficiency and autonomy, artifacts for artificial intelligence project management, and meeting researcher needs through large-scale cyberinfrastructure. The selected cases discussed in this panel not only highlight the critical challenges in implementing cyber-physical technologies into real applications but also suggest promising strategies to overcome those issues from diverse facets.
