In current Medium Voltage DC (MVDC) Shipboard Power Systems (SPSs), multiple sources exist to supply power to a common dc bus. Conventionally, the power management of such systems is performed by controlling Power Generation Modules (PGMs)…
Driving simulators are increasingly used in research and development. However, simulators often cause motion sickness due to downscaled motion and unscaled veridical visuals. In this paper, a motion cueing algorithm is proposed that reduces…
A reliable decision making by the operator in a smart grid is contingent upon correct analysis of intra-and-interdependencies between its entities and also on accurate identification of the most critical entities at a given point of time. A…
Computing-in-memory (CIM) has attracted significant attentions in recent years due to its massive parallelism and low power consumption. However, current CIM designs suffer from large area overhead of small CIM macros and bad programmablity…
Reliability of complex Cyber-Physical Systems is necessary to guarantee availability and/or safety of the provided services. Diverse and complex fault tolerance policies are adopted to enhance reliability, that include a varied mix of…
Operating a fleet of remote robotic systems with intermittent communications requires scheduling limited contact opportunities to maintain fleet health awareness, complete mission objectives, and intervene on faulted assets before their…
Many cluster management systems (CMSs) have been proposed to share a single cluster with multiple distributed computing systems. However, none of the existing approaches can handle distributed machine learning (ML) workloads given the…
Environmental hazards like water and air pollution, extreme weather, or chemical exposures can affect human health in a number of ways, and it is a persistent apprehension in communities surrounded by mining operations. The application of…
With increasingly sophisticated cyber-adversaries able to access a wider repertoire of mechanisms to implant malware such as ransomware, CPU/GPU keyloggers, and stealthy kernel rootkits, there is an urgent need for techniques to detect and…
Persistent Memory (PM) makes possible recoverable applications that can preserve application progress across system reboots and power failures. Actual recoverability requires careful ordering of cacheline flushes, currently done in two…
In a centralized or cloud radio access network, certain portions of the digital baseband processing of a group of several radio access points are executed at a central data center. Centralizing the processing improves the flexibility,…
Providing situational awareness in light of severe coordinated cyber-attacks on power grids, where many measurements may be untrusted, is necessary for reliable monitoring and resilient operation of the grid. In this scenario, the set of…
Context: Kubernetes is an open source software that helps in automated deployment of software and orchestration of containers. With Kubernetes, IT organizations, such as IBM, Pinterest, and Spotify have experienced an increase in release…
Containerization is a virtualization technique that allows one to create and run executables consistently on any infrastructure. Compared to virtual machines, containers are lighter since they do not bundle a (guest) operating system but…
Aimed at the timely detection of the degradation of electrical machines and the organization of active maintenance, numerous studies on performance degradation assessment have been conducted. However, previous research still suffers from…
Cable broadband networks are one of the few "last-mile" broadband technologies widely available in the U.S. Unfortunately, they have poor reliability after decades of deployment. The cable industry proposed a framework called Proactive…
Co-locating latency-critical services (LCSs) and best-effort jobs (BEJs) constitute the principal approach for enhancing resource utilization in production. Nevertheless, the co-location practice hurts the performance of LCSs due to…
DC shipboard microgrids (SMGs) are highly dynamic systems susceptible to failure due to various cyber-physical disturbances, such as extreme weather and mission operations during wartime. In this paper, the real-time operational resilience…
Serverless computing has revolutionized cloud architectures by enabling developers to deploy event-driven applications via lightweight, self-contained virtualized containers. However, serverless frameworks face critical cold-start…
Cloud computing recently developed into a viable alternative to on-premises systems for executing high-performance computing (HPC) applications. With the emergence of new vendors and hardware options, there is now a growing need to…
