Cyber-physical energy systems require the integration of a heterogeneous physical layers and decision control networks, mediated by decentralized and distributed local sensing/actuation structures backed by an information layer. With the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) [1] requirements and president's visions of more secure, reliable and controllable cyber-physical system, a new paradigm for modeling and research investigation is
