Sustainability is increasingly recognized as an essential characteristic of the modern systems, yet its definition often lacks precision and actionability. To address this gap, we conducted a systematic literature review on the definition and key domains of sustainability with a specific focus on the integration of biological elements within Cyber-Physical Systems & Spaces. Our research identified seven key domains where the interplay between sustainability on biological and cyber-physical perspective is crucial. Our findings led to the establishment of a conceptual model and the specification of a clear definition for biologically sustainable cyber-physical spaces. Through this conceptual model different environments were identified where cyber-physical systems interact harmoniously with biological components towards ensuring long-term sustainability. Future work will refine this model through mixed-methods research, by combining qualitative and quantitative approaches to deepen our understanding and applications of biological sustainability in these integrated systems.

摘要

Sustainability is increasingly recognized as an essential characteristic of the modern systems, yet its definition often lacks precision and actionability. To address this gap, we conducted a systematic literature review on the definition and key domains of sustainability with a specific focus on the integration of biological elements within Cyber-Physical Systems & Spaces. Our research identified seven key domains where the interplay between sustainability on biological and cyber-physical perspective is crucial. Our findings led to the establishment of a conceptual model and the specification of a clear definition for biologically sustainable cyber-physical spaces. Through this conceptual model different environments were identified where cyber-physical systems interact harmoniously with biological components towards ensuring long-term sustainability. Future work will refine this model through mixed-methods research, by combining qualitative and quantitative approaches to deepen our understanding and applications of biological sustainability in these integrated systems.
