Abstract
Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) play a critical role in modern industrial domains, including manufacturing, energy, transportation, and healthcare, where they enable automation, optimization, and real-time decision-making. Ensuring the robustness of these systems is paramount, as failures can have significant economic, operational, and safety consequences. This paper present findings from an industrial survey conducted in Wallonia, covering a wide range of sectors, to assess the current state of practice in CPS robustness. It investigates robustness from how it is understood and applied in relationship with requirements engineering, system design, test execution, failure modes, and available tools. It identifies key challenges and gaps between industry practices and state-of-the-art methodologies. Additionally, it compares our findings with similar industrial surveys from the literature.
