Visible to the public CPS: Synergy: Plug-and-Play Cyber-Physical Systems to Enable Intelligent Buildings

Submitted by jianghai on Mon, 11/10/2014 - 2:49pm. Contributors:

Abstract:

Despite their importance within the energy sector, buildings have not kept pace with technological improvements and particularly the evolution of intelligent features. A primary obstacle in enabling intelligent buildings is their highly distributed and diverse nature.

Submitted by Yan Wan on Mon, 11/10/2014 - 2:49pm. Contributors:

Abstract:

The objective of this research is to develop tools for comprehensive design and optimization of air traffic flow management capabilities at multiple spatial and temporal resolutions: at a national airspace-wide scale and one-day time horizon (strategic time- frame); and at a regional scale (of one or a few Centers) and a two-hour time horizon (tactical time-frame).

The following results were obtained in Year 4 of the project:

Visible to the public Methodologies for Engineering with Plug-and-Learn Components: Synthesis and Analysis Across Abstraction Layers

Submitted by John Gallagher on Mon, 11/10/2014 - 1:43pm. Contributors:

Abstract:

CyberPhysical Systems (CPS) that self-modify to improve performance or repair damage often rewrite the modular relationships that make system modeling or Verification and Validation (V&V) possible. In this project, we are exploring methods to create self- modifying CPS systems that, in addition to self-improving or self-repairing, are also capable of maintaining system models that support the use of V&V techniques.

Submitted by Ovidiu Daescu on Mon, 11/10/2014 - 1:17pm. Contributors:

Abstract:

Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) requires tight coordination between computational systems and the physical devices that deliver the prescribed treatment plan, making it a perfect example of cyber-physical system. The current approach to addressing tumor motion in radiation therapy is to treat it as a problem and not as a therapeutic opportunity. Existing treatment planning methods attempt to create dose distributions that are at best dosimetrically equivalent to the static case.
