| Sumario: | Recent years have seen a growing interest in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), which are distributed systems of systems that control the physical environment by means of collaborative sensing and actuating. We observe a trend to equip these systems with more "smartness" to deal with emergent situations, be more efficient and tolerant to threats, etc. Such "Smart" Cyber-Physical Systems (sCPS) rely heavily on software to provide the embedded intelligence to the extent that software becomes the most important and most complex constituent. This calls for systematic software engineering (SE) of sCPS, not only to address individual SE challenges, but to provide synergistic solutions that are resource efficient and respect the sCPS specifics, such as mobility, limited connectivity, partially uncertain environment, etc. Building upon the success of the previous four editions of SEsCPS (at ICSE 2015-2018), the workshop aims to bring together academics and practitioners from several disciplines with the overall objectives of: (i) increasing the understanding of problems of software engineering for sCPS, (ii) studying the underlying foundational principles for engineering sCPS, and (iii) identifying and defining promising SE solutions for sCPS.
