Educating the Reality of Cyber-Physical Systems A veteran of National Instruments, Dave has held leadership positions in field engineering, academic and product marketing, and international sales and marketing and has delivered more than 50 keynotes about the application of next-generation technologies in 30 countries. He has met with the ministers of education in both Russia and Kosovo to discuss ways to adopt new generation technologies for science and engineering in university curricula. He has also authored numerous articles and interviewed with multiple domestic and international publications including EE Times Asia, Bits & Chips, Evaluation Engineering, Desktop Engineering, and Sensors. |

New Cyber-Physical Systems Education Activities at Los Alamos National Laboratory Charles "Chuck" Farrar received a Ph.D. in civil engineering from the University of New Mexico in 1988. He has 30 years of experience at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) where he is currently The Engineering Institute Leader (the Eng. Institute is a research and education collaboration between LANL and the University of California, San Diego). His research interests focus on developing integrated hardware and software solutions to structural health monitoring problems. The results of this research are documented in more than 330 publications and numerous keynote lectures at international conferences. He teaches a graduate course in structural health monitoring at UCSD and has development of a short course entitled Structural Health Monitoring: A Statistical Pattern Recognition Approach that has been offered more than 22 times to industry and government agencies in Asia, Australia, Europe and the U.S. His course material has been captured in a book entitled Structural health Monitoring: A Machine Learning Perspective. In 2003 he received the inaugural Structural Health Monitoring Lifetime Achievement Award at the International Workshop on Structural Health Monitoring; in 2007 he was elected a Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers and in 2012 he was elected a Los Alamos National Laboratory Fellow. |
