Residential House Occupancy Detection: Trust-based Scheme Using Economic and Privacy-aware Sensors

June 22, 2021

Author(s)

Jun Jiang, Chenli Wang, Thomas Roth, Cuong Nguyen, Patrick Kamongi, Hohyun Lee, Yuhong Liu

Internet of Things (IoT) technologies (e.g., power- efficient occupancy-based energy management systems) are increasingly deployed in commercial buildings to reduce building energy consumption. However, the sensors involved in such systems are rarely

Transactive Energy and Solarization: Assessing the Potential for Demand Curve Management and Cost Savings

May 18, 2021

Author(s)

Himanshu Neema, Scott Phillips, Dasom Lee, David Hess, Zachariah Threet, Thomas Roth, Cuong Nguyen

Utilities and local power providers throughout the world have recognized the advantages of the "smart grid" to encourage consumers to engage in greater energy efficiency. The digitalization of electricity and the consumer interface enables utilities to

Integrated Sensor Data Processing for Occupancy Detection in Residential Buildings

February 22, 2021

Author(s)

Chenli Wang, Jun Jiang, Thomas Roth, Cuong Nguyen, Yuhong Liu, Hohyun Lee

Based on the data from U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), the total annual energy consumed by buildings in the United States has increased by 325% over the past 70 years. Many commercial buildings utilize a building management system (BMS) and

The UCEF Approach to Tool Integration for HLA Co-Simulations

July 15, 2020

Author(s)

Thomas P. Roth, Christopher W. Lemieux, Martin J. Burns

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are complex systems that require expertise from multiple domains in their design, implementation, and validation. One cost-effective technique for validation of CPS is the integration of two or more domain-specific simulators

Online Testbed for Evaluating Vulnerability of Deep Learning Based Power Grid Load Forecasters

July 7, 2020

Author(s)

Himanshu Neema, Peter Volgyesi, Xenofon Koutsoukos, Thomas Roth, Cuong Nguyen

Modern electric grids that integrate smart grid technologies require different approaches to grid operations. There has been a shift towards increased reliance on distributed sensors to monitor bidirectional power flows and machine learning based load

EXPPO: EXecution Performance Profiling and Optimization for CPS Co-simulation-as-a-Service

June 10, 2020

Author(s)

Yogesh Barve, Himanshu Neema, Zhuangwei Kang, Hongyang Sun, Aniruddha Gokhale, Thomas Roth

A co-simulation may comprise several heterogeneous federates with diverse spatial and temporal execution characteristics. In an iterative time-stepped simulation, a federation exhibits the Bulk Synchronous Parallel (BSP) computation paradigm in which all

Integrating a Network Simulator with the High Level Architecture for the Co-Simulation of Cyber- Physical Systems

April 7, 2020

Author(s)

Thomas P. Roth, Cuong T. Nguyen, Martin J. Burns, Himanshu Neema

Cyber-physical systems (CPS) use logical computation informed by measurements of the environment to actuate changes on the physical world. These systems have significant impact on people, and must be designed for resilience against fault and attack

Using Statistical Methods and Co-Simulation to Evaluate ADS-Equipped Vehicle Trustworthiness

November 10, 2019

Author(s)

Khalid Halba, Edward Griffor, Thomas Roth, Patrick Kamongi

With the increasing interest in studying Automated Driving System (ADS)-equipped vehicles through simulation, there is a growing need for comprehensive and agile middleware to provide novel Virtual Analysis (VA) functions of ADS-equipped vehicles towards

IEEE 1451 Smart Sensor Digital Twin Federation for IoT/CPS Research

May 6, 2019

Author(s)

Yuyin Song, Martin J. Burns, Abhinav Pandey, Thomas P. Roth

Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are smart systems that include engineered, interacting networks of physical and cyber components. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 1451 defines a set of open, common, network-independent

UCEF 1.0.0-ALPHA Kickoff Workshop: Workshop Report

April 9, 2019

Author(s)

Martin J. Burns, Thomas P. Roth

This report summarizes the results of a workshop held at NIST on July 27, 2017. The goal of this workshop was to introduce participants to the newly constructed Universal CPS Environment for Federation (UCEF). Over 40 attendees were provided with the UCEF

Extending Portico HLA to Federations of Federations with Transport Layer Security

September 11, 2018

Author(s)

Thomas Roth, Martin Burns, Tim Pokorny

The Internet of Things (IoT) promises to connect and manage an unprecedented number of heterogeneous devices that are not designed to interoperate as a system. Modeling and Simulation of IoT will face new challenges in the representation of this scale
