Improving Metropolitan-Scale Transportation Systems
with Data-Driven Cyber-Control


NSF CNS-1446640
                    

 


The research on cyber-physical systems has benefited education. It gives the opportunity to both graduate and undergraduate students to understand the interaction between physical and computational process.  This PI has enriched the existing engineering curriculum to incorporate the theory in physical process (e.g., modeling and control) with science in computing (e.g., architecture).

Course Enrichment:

CSci 5231 Wireless and Sensor Networks

CSci 8980 Wireless Networks and Its Applications.

Wireless cellular, ad hoc, mesh and sensor networks have been used in many application domains such as personal communication, military surveillance, habitat monitoring and scientific exploration, participatory sensing and crowdsensing, and cyber physical systems.  In this course,  one week has been dedicated to study large sensing data from CPS Transportation Systems.

Lab Development and Data Sharing

Laboratory designs based on large data set has been developed and data sets has been made available via the Internet to other Universities. We also plan to make our trace/code available for advanced
experiments and senior theses in which a group of undergraduates participate in research activities

Women, Minority and REU Hiring.

We are also activity recruiting women, minority and REU students. Ads have been disseminated in classroom and department bulletin boards.
