Visible to the public Foundational Issues for CPS: Robustness, Real-Time and Openness

To build practical cyber physical systems of the future will require three critical foundational issues of robustness, real-time, and openness.These issues must be addressed together.

Visible to the public CPS: Small: A Unified Distributed Spatiotemporal Signal Processing Framework for Structural Health Monitoring

There is an urgent need to build structural health monitoring (SHM) systems that can automatically detect, identify, localize, prognose and mitigate anomalies and damages in a structure at an early stage such that catastrophic failures can be avoided.

Visible to the public Learning for Control of Synthetic and Cyborg Insects in Uncertain Dynamic Environments

The objective of this research is to enable operation of synthetic and cyborg insects in complicated environments, such as outdoors or in a collapsed building. As the mobile platforms and environment have significant uncertainty, learning and adaptation capabilities are critical. Success in this research project will bring society closer to solving the grand challenge of teams of mobile, disposable, search and rescue robots which can robustly locomote through uncertain and novel environments, finding survivors in disaster situations, while removing r
