Abstract
During the course of our work on FORCES we have seen the emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT), Elastic Cloud Computing, Big Data Analytics, and Machine Learning for Cyber Physical Systems. While each one of these advances has in itself been very substantive, we believe that our work on FORCES has revealed a way ahead for the Digital Transformation of Societal Scale Systems. Digital Transformation includes a way of re-architecting CPS Societal Systems such as transportation systems, energy systems, manufacturing and robotics systems using a combination of streaming data from IoT sensors analyzed using machine learning techniques and then made resilient to attack and privacy aware. New mechanism design which builds in learning and addresses social justice issues will be transformational to society. In FORCES we began laying out the theoretical foundations of this digital transformation. The scope of what we have begun is now enormous, and FORCES is to be credited with having blazed this new frontier.
