Visible to the public Holistic Data-Driven Diagnosis for Dependable Automotive Systems

Submitted by Katie Dey on Fri, 02/25/2011 - 9:31am. Contributors:

Despite extensive design processes, emergent behavior will still appear at run-time in dependable automotive systems. Such behavior occurs due to unexpected or unidentifieded interactions and dependencies between system components. These interactions are unidentifieded due to a disconnect between various stages of the design process. A diagnostic advisor that synthesizes data from each stage of the product lifecycle provide a more accurate design-time characterization of the system, as well as more robust run-time operation.

Visible to the public Closing the loop between traffic/pollution sensing and vehicle route control

Submitted by Katie Dey on Fri, 02/25/2011 - 9:31am. Contributors:

The Vision: Our planet has become more urban than rural in the last decade. Urban traffic has increased dramatically, making driving more stressful, costly, and unhealthy. According to the Texas Transportation Institute, the overall cost of metropolitan traffic congestion (in terms of wasted fuel and lost economic productivity) in the U.S. topped $87 billion in 2007, more than $750/year for every U.S. traveler.

Visible to the public Towards Automotive Software Health Management (SHM)*

Submitted by Katie Dey on Fri, 02/25/2011 - 9:30am. Contributor:

Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) covers frameworks for detecting, diagnosing, and mitigating faults in hardware and structures in aerospace systems. Software Health Management (SHM) applies the goals of IVHM to software-intensive systems to detect software faults in real-time and to mitigate them. In this position paper, we describe the needs and challenges of SHM in automotive systems.
