Implementing a wireless mesh network in a real-life scenario requires a significant systems engineering effort to turn a network concept into a complete system. This paper presents an evaluation of a fielded system within the DARPA…
One of the primary goals in spectrum occupancy mapping is to create a system that is robust to assumptions about the number of sensors, occupancy threshold (in dBm), sensor noise, number of emitters and the propagation environment. We show…
Modern data management systems often need to deal with massive, dynamic and inherently distributed data sources. We collect the data using a distributed network, and at the same time try to maintain a global view of the data at a central…
Several situations exist where a geographic region of some size needs to be scanned or monitored through many sensors. Still, it is either absolutely impossible or prohibitively expensive to deploy and maintain wireless communication…
The challenge of establishing assurance in autonomy is rapidly attracting increasing interest in the industry, government, and academia. Autonomy is a broad and expansive capability that enables systems to behave without direct control by a…
The CMS experiment, located at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, has a redundant muon system composed by three different detector technologies: Cathode Strip Chambers (in the forward regions), Drift Tubes (in the central region) and Resistive…
The surface detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory is a 1600 water Cherenkov tank array on a triangular 1.5 km grid. The signals from each tank are read out using three 9'' photomultipliers and processed at a sampling frequency of 40 MHz,…
One of the hardest challenges to face in the development of a non GPS-based localization system for autonomous vehicles is the changes of the environment. LiDAR-based systems typically try to match the last measurements obtained with a…
Computer-use agents (CUAs) that interact with real computer systems can perform automated tasks but face critical safety risks. Ambiguous instructions may trigger harmful actions, and adversarial users can manipulate tool execution to…
The development of an extensive air shower depends not only on the nature of the primary ultra-high-energy cosmic ray but also on the properties of the hadronic interactions. For energies above those achievable in human-made accelerators,…
