Visible to the public Trains, Planes, and Automobiles

Car and airplane designers each have lessons that they can teach the other. This paper concentrates on what we think automotive designers can learn from aircraft designers, with a short note on the converse. We will also consider some key issues that both disciplines need to work on.

Visible to the public Embedded Fault Detection for Low-Cost, Safety-Critical Systems

This research addresses the basic challenge of bringing high levels of reliability and integrity to other domains-domains that can afford neither the cost nor the extra power, weight, and size associated with physical redundancy. The main research focus is on the development of algorithms and computing architectures which enable the detection of fauls without relying on physical redundancy.

Visible to the public CPS:Small: Transforming a City's Transportation Infrastructure Through an Embedded Pervasive Communication Network

The objective of this inter-disciplinary research is to develop new technologies that transform the streets of a city into a hybrid transportation/communication system, called the Intelligent Road (iRoad), where autonomous wireless devices are co-located with traffic signals, forming a wireless network that fuses real-time transportation data from all over the city to support a wide range of new applications.
