Visible to the public CRII: CPS: Architecture and Distributed Computation in the Networked Control Paradigm: An Autonomous Grid Example

Abstract:

This project is focused on developing a fundamental understanding of the impact of network delays and data drops using an approach that is applicable to a variety of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). An example of such a CPS is the power grid which includes large-scale deployment of distributed and networked Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) and wind energy resources.

Visible to the public Co-design of Platform and Control in NCS Using an Overrun Framework

Abstract:

This research is focused on the co-design of platform and control of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). Limited and shared resources among several control and non-control applications in CPS introduce delays in transmitted messages, which in turn can degrade system performance or even cause instabilities. While a worst-case delay based design can accommodate such delays, they often are pessimistic and lead to an overdesign as worst case delays happen infrequently.
