Abstract:This paper first reports that the network topology of the cyber physical system of the nickel–cobalt acid leaching process is a scale-free, hierarchical, small-world network. The network topology is formed by mapping the processing units, valves, meters, actuators, and controllers as nodes and the communication cables and material stream pipes as edges. We speculate that this result may be valid for other complex processing system.
