Abstract: Designing software that can properly and safely interact with the physical world is an important cyber-‐physical systems design challenge. The proposed work includes the development of a novel approach to designing planning and control algorithms for high‐performance cyber physical systems. The new approach was inspired by statistical mechanics and stochastic geometry.

Abstract: The next wave of Internet innovation is upon us, the Internet of Things. Much of the innovation and value in this transition comes from the Cyber Physical Systems the IoT supports. This focus is commonly referred to as the Industrial Internet. This presentation will give a brief overview of some of the activities around evolving the Internet as we know it today for CPS, a.k.a. Industrial Internet Fabric.

Abstract: Hundreds of millions of people travel in vehicles every day around the world. How to improve road safety and efficiency using cyber technologies (such as connected vehicles) is a critical issue in today’s society. We have been working on a NSF cyber physical system (CPS) project that addresses some key challenges in the design and evaluation of cyber transportation systems (CTS), taking into consideration issues related to human-factors.
