Visible to the public Towards Effective and Efficient Sensing-Motion Co-Design of Swarming Cyber-Physical Systems

Abstract:

The project focuses on swarming cyber-physical systems (swarming CPS) consisting of a collection of mobile networked agents, each of which has sensing, computing, communication, and locomotion capabilities, and that have a wide range of civilian and military applications. Different from conventional static CPS, swarming CPS rely on mobile computing entities, e.g., robots, which collaboratively interact with phenomena of interest at different physical locations.

Visible to the public CPS Synergy: In-Silico Verification of Artificial Pancreas Control Algorithm

Abstract:

The artificial pancreas (AP) is a set of increasingly sophisticated devices and algorithms that will automate the delivery of insulin to patients with type--1 diabetes. While the AP concept promises to alleviate the burden posed by the self-- management of blood glucose levels, it also poses significant risks arising from a combination of external disturbances such as patient meals, physical activity, sensor errors, network delays and physiological variations.
