A Remote Command Monitor for Cyber-Physical Systems

A method for mediating an interaction between a control station and a remote system includes maintaining, at a command monitor, data characterizing an operation of the remote system in response to execution of commands at the remote system, receiving, at the command monitor, state information from the remote system, updating the data characterizing the operation of the remote system based on the received state information, receiving, at the command monitor, one or more commands sent from the control station, determining a predicted set of one or more outcomes that would result from execution of the one or more commands at the remote system based at least in part on the data characterizing the operation of the remote system, and preventing issuance of at least one command of the one or more commands at the remote system based on the predicted set of one or more outcomes.
