  2. 2001 National Research Council ReportEmbedded Everywhere “Information technology (IT) is on the verge of another revolution. Driven by the increasing capabilities and ever declining costs of computing and communications devices, IT is being embedded into a growing range of physical devices linked together through networks and will become ever more pervasive as the component technologies become smaller, faster, and cheaper... These networked systems of embedded computers ... have the potential to change radically the way people interact with their environment by linking together a range of devices and sensors that will allow information to be collected, shared, and processed in unprecedented ways. ... The use of [these embedded computers] throughout society could well dwarf previous milestones in the information revolution.” Christopher Brooks, "CHESS Overview"

  3.

  5. Cyber-Physical Systems • "A cyber-physical system (CPS) integrates computing and communication capabilities with monitoring and / or control of entities in the physical world dependably, safely, securely, efficiently and in real-time.“ - S. Shankar Sastry Christopher Brooks, "CHESS Overview"

  6. Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) Activity • NSF Workshop on CPS: Oct. 16 – 17, 2006, Austin • CPS as part of RTSS: Dec. 3-6, 2007, Tucson • Architecture and Composibility for Cyber-Physical Systems • CPS Week: April 21-24, 2008: St Louis • Part of RTAS, IPSN and HSCC • and other CPS workshops . . . Christopher Brooks, "CHESS Overview"

  7. Mission of Chess To provide an environment for graduate research in cyber-physical systems by developing • Model-based design • Tool-supported methodologies For • Real-time • Fault-tolerant • Robust • Secure • Heterogeneous • DistributedSoftware The fate of computers lacking interaction with physical processes. We are on the line to create a “new systems science” that is at once computational and physical. Christopher Brooks, "CHESS Overview"

  8. Some Applications Addressed Avionics: UAVs Automotive Automotive Systems Biology Networked Embedded Systems Christopher Brooks, "CHESS Overview"

  9. Project Approach • Model-Based Design (the view from above) • principled frameworks for design • specification, modeling, and design • manipulable (mathematical) models • enabling analysis and verification • enabling effective synthesis of implementations • Platform-Based Design (the view from below) • exposing key resource limitations • hiding inessential implementation details • Tools • concrete realizations of design methods Christopher Brooks, "CHESS Overview"

  10. Claire J. Tomlin:Decentralized Control of a Quadrotor Aircraft Fleet to seek Information • Students: Gabe Hoffmann, Maryam Kamgarpour, Robin Raffard, and Steven Waslander • Planning operations for teams of aircraft • Collision Avoidance, Region Surveillance • Stanford Testbed of AutonomousRotocraft for Multi-Agent Control(STARMAC) • MURI with Vanderbilt, CMU,Stanford and Berkeley Christopher Brooks, "CHESS Overview"

  11. Alberto Sangiovanni-Vincentelli:Metro II: A Next-Generation Framework for Platform-based Design • CHESS Students: Abhijit Davare, Douglas Densmore, Trevor Meyerowitz, Alessandro Pinto, Guang Yang, Haibo Zeng, Qi Zhu • The Metropolis framework – 2004-2006 • platform-based design methodology • used to design embedded systems • advocates the separation of concerns • architectural platform • functionality. • Transform the design through clearly defined abstraction/refinement steps that culminate in a mapping, researchers can explore the system more efficiently. • Metro II – Under development, extends Metropolis • heterogeneous IP import, • orthogonalization of performance from behavior • design space exploration. Christopher Brooks, "CHESS Overview"

  12. a a a b a b Tom Henzinger:Games, Times, and Probabilities:Value Iteration in Verification and Control • CHESS Students: Krishnendu Chatterjee, Slobodan Matic • Graph Models of Systems • vertices = states • edges = transitions • paths = behaviors • Verification and control are very special (Boolean) cases of graph-based optimization problems. • They can be generalized to solve questions that involve multiple players, quantitative resources, probabilistic transitions, and continuous state spaces. • The theory and practice of this is still wide open Christopher Brooks, "CHESS Overview"

  13. S. Shankar Sastry:Control of Hybrid Systems • “Embedded and autonomous software, computer vision, and computation in novel substrates such as DNA, nonlinear and adaptive control, robotic telesurgery, control of hybrid systems, embedded systems, sensor networks and biological motor control.” • A.
