<div class=""><b class="">Abstract</b></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
Cyber-physical systems such as Smart Grids, Internet of Things Networks, and Intelligent Transport Systems, are supported by three main engineering components: sensing/actuating, networking, and automatic decision making. These components can be generally abstracted
as a wireless network of sensors and actuators (WSANs). In WSANs, the new interaction of sensing/actuating, networking, and decision making is demanding the development of novel fundamental design principles, so to reliably observe the physical world, interconnect its
units, analyze data and perform control actions, even with resilience, privacy and security guarantees.<br class="">
This course presents the most relevant design principles of WSANs.</div>
