Formalism for Supporting the Development of Verifiably Safe Medical Guidelines with Statecharts [PDF]
Improving the effectiveness and safety of patient care is the ultimate objective for medical cyber-physical systems. Many medical best practice guidelines exist, but most of the existing guidelines in handbooks are difficult for medical staff to remember and apply clinically.

Security of Medical Cyber-physical Systems: An Empirical Study on Imaging Devices [PDF]
Recent years have witnessed a boom of connected medical devices, which brings security issues in the meantime. Medical imaging devices, an essential part of medical cyber-physical systems, play a vital role in modern hospitals and are often life-critical. However, security and privacy issues in these medical cyber-physical systems are sometimes ignored.
