Visible to the public Reconciling Safety with the Internet for Cyber-Physical Systems

Overview. The Internet of Things (IoT) leverages Internet technology in cyber-physical systems, but the protocols and principles of the Internet were not designed for interacting with the physical world. For example, timeliness is not a factor in any widespread Internet technology, with Quality-of-Service (QoS) features having been routinely omitted for decades.

Visible to the public Multi-Sensory Event Detection for Cross-Platform Coordination and Verification

With electronic devices increasingly interacting with each other and with the physical world around them, device behavior is becoming more and more like human behavior, namely reliant on experiences and not just data. Hence, there's a disconnect between how most devices have been engineered and what what practitioners are expecting them to do, and because of this fact, there's also a disconnect between the common cyber-security protections that protect data and some of the desirable proofs and verifications that can be highly valuable to cyber-physical devices.

Visible to the public Internet of Self-Powered Sensors: Towards a Scalable Long-Term Condition-based Monitoring & Maintenance of Civil Infrastructure

This is a collaborative research project between Washington University in St. Louis, Michigan State University and University of Nevada Reno and is investigating a cyber-physical framework for scalable, long-term monitoring and condition-based maintenance of civil infrastructures. Civil infrastructure constitutes a network of interdependent systems and utilities (e.g., highways, bridges, rail systems, buildings) that are necessary for supporting social and economic activities.
