Connected Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) are expected to enable reliable, efficient, and intelligent transportation systems. Most motion-planning algorithms for multi-agent systems implicitly assume that all vehicles/agents will execute the expected plan with ...
Characterizing the Effect of Mind Wandering on Braking Dynamics in Partially Autonomous Vehicles
Partially autonomous driving systems may require the human driver to take control at any moment, yet by their design, they often cause difficulty with attention management. In this preliminary study, we propose a data- and dynamics-driven approach to ...
SIoV Mobility Management Using SDVN-Enabled Traffic Light Cooperative Framework
Social Internet of Vehicles (SIoV) is an emerging connected vehicular networking framework among specialized social vehicles to share and disseminate important information like traffic updates, weather conditions, parking slots, so on. This study aims to ...
A Human-Centered Power Conservation Framework Based on Reverse Auction Theory and Machine Learning
Extreme outside temperatures resulting from heat waves, winter storms, and similar weather-related events trigger the Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems, resulting in challenging, and potentially catastrophic, peak loads. As a ...
Assuring Autonomy of UAVs in Mission-critical Scenarios by Performability Modeling and Analysis
Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have been used in mission-critical scenarios such as Search and Rescue (SAR) missions. In such a mission-critical scenario, flight autonomy is a key performance metric that quantifies how long the UAV can continue the ...
Path Planning for UAVs under GPS Permanent Faults
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have various applications in different settings, including for example, surveillance, packet delivery, emergency response, data collection in the Internet of Things (IoT), and connectivity in cellular networks. However, ...
An Error Protection Protocol for the Multicast Transmission of Data Samples in V2X Applications
There is a trend towards communication of larger data objects in wireless vehicle communication. In many cases, communication uses publish-subscribe protocols. Data rate requirements of such protocols are best addressed by wireless multicast protocols, ...
Graph-Based Deadlock Analysis and Prevention for Robust Intelligent Intersection Management
Intersection management systems, with the assistance of vehicular networks and autonomous vehicles, have the potential to perform traffic control more precisely than contemporary signalized intersections. However, as infrastructural intersection ...
Characterizing and Improving Resilience of Accelerators to Memory Errors in Autonomous Robots
Motion planning is a computationally intensive and well-studied problem in autonomous robots. However, motion planning hardware accelerators (MPA) must be soft-error resilient for deployment in safety-critical applications, and blanket application of ...
Experimentation and Implementation of the BFT++ Cyber-Attack Resilience Mechanism for Cyber-Physical Systems
Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are used in various safety-critical domains such as robotics, industrial manufacturing systems, and power systems. Faults and cyber attacks have been shown to cause safety violations, which can damage the system and endanger ...
On Cyber-Physical Fault Resilience in Data Communication: A Case From A LoRaWAN Network Systems Design
Systems offering fault-resilient, energy-efficient, soft real-time data communication have wide applications in Industrial Internet-of-Things (IIoT). While there have been extensive studies for fault resilience in real-time embedded systems, ...
