Eager: Wireless Power Quality Management System For Residential Applications @ University of Connecticut Increasing use of energy efficient home appliances contributes to the reduction of energy usage by residential consumers. The combination of home appliances and energy management systems has been proposed as an energy efficient solution for smart homes. However, the need of reactive power not only reduces overall energy efficiency due to losses incurred in transmission and distribution power lines, but also poor regulation of reactive power degrades the lifespan of consumer appliances; both quantifiable in billions of dollars in losses per year. In this project, the available reactive power capacities in various home appliances will be evaluated. The reactive power demand will be met by the reactive power capacity of these appliances. Typically, home appliances such as laundry machines and air conditioners have a front-end power factor correction (PFC) converter to satisfy power factor conditions for Energy Star certification. These PFC circuits are usually low-cost unidirectional boost converters. Even though the power capacity in this PFC converter is small, multiple home appliances can cooperate to meet the reactive power demand in distribution level power networks. A wireless home power management system will also be developed to 1) manage the reactive power compensation provided by each appliance, and 2) cooperate with smart home energy management networks or advanced metering interface systems for peak demand response purposes. As a result, the power losses due to the transmission lines and distribution lines, and voltage fluctuations due to variations in reactive power will be significantly reduced. The success of the proposed framework will result in significant enhancement of power quality in residential applications at little to no extra cost to the consumer. Furthermore, the life-cycle of the home appliances will be improved; and lastly, CO2 emissions will be reduced. |

Ri: Small: Multi-View Latent Class Discovery and Prediction With a Streamlined Analytics Platform @ University of Connecticut Discovering latent subgroups in a sample is an important problem in many scientific disciplines. Social scientists identify subgroups within a population based on behavioral patterns to examine differential effects of social status. Engineers recognize malfunctions of a manufacturing system based on performance measures to detect design defects. Physicians define subtypes of a disorder on the basis of clinical symptoms to identify associated genetic risk factors. This kind of problem involves two sets of variables: a set of descriptors describing the issue (e.g., behavioral patterns, or symptoms) and a set of moderators or predictors (e.g., social status, or genetic factors). The ability to accurately predict the latent classes (e.g., disease subtypes) from predictors (e.g., genetic risk) in the absence of observed descriptors (e.g., before symptoms are developed) will advance many of these disciplines. This project aims to develop an effective and efficient platform of machine learning algorithms to solve this problem. The team will effectively integrate research and teaching to engage students into the proposed study. Validated methods and software will be broadly disseminated through the project web repository and scientific presentations. |

Us Ignite: Focus Area 1: Sd2n: Software-Defined Urban Distribution Network For Smart Cities @ University of Connecticut Urban areas, where more than 80% of US population lives and 80% of energy is consumed, are developing into smart, connected communities. At the heart of city infrastructures is the urban power distribution network, which supports various systems including government, safety, water, food, transportation, communication, and other functions vital to the lives and work of citizens. Current urban distribution networks were not designed for smart cities, and cannot sustain the ever-increasing demands from urban growth in the face of substantial increases in renewable generation and extreme weather-induced blackouts. Lack of a scalable and high-speed communication and computing infrastructure is a key bottleneck. This project will architect a novel Software-Defined Distribution Network (SD2N), a gigabit networking and computing platform to enable a sustainable and resilient electric power Internet for smart cities. SD2N will manage a vast number of smart grid devices, allow self-adaption, self-management and self-healing without costly hardware upgrades, and provide a sustainable, scalable and replicable smart city backbone infrastructure. The new architecture will illustrate how software-defined networking and distributed real-time computing can provide urban infrastructures with resilient, sustainable, human-centered, highly efficient and affordable service platforms for smart cities. The concepts and platform will have the potential to be applied across industry sectors, with significant benefits to municipalities, utilities, developers, and their stakeholders. The proposed SD2N platform will be demonstrated at US Ignite Summits, and the research results will be transferred to key stakeholders, communities and cities in collaboration with Eversource Energy and the Connecticut Center for Advanced Technology. |

Collaborative Research: Advancing Science With Accelerated Machine Learning @ Massachusetts Institute of Technology In the next generation of big science experiments, the demands for computing resources are expected to outstrip the capabilities of existing computing infrastructure. In light of this, a radical rethinking of the cyberinfrastructure is needed to contend with these developments. With the onset of deep learning, parallelized processing architectures have emerged as a solution. Combined with deep learning algorithms, parallelized processing architectures, in particular, Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have been shown to give large speedups in computing when compared with conventional CPUs. This project aims to bring machine learning based accelerated computing with FPGAs into the scientific community by targeting two big-data physics experiments: the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO). This project will push the frontiers of deep learning at scale, demonstrating the versatility and scalability of these methods to accelerate and enable new physics in the big data era. This project serves the national interest, as stated by NSF's mission, by promoting the progress of science. The PIs and their collaborators will build upon their recent work to design and exploit state-of-the-art neural network models for real-time data analytics, reducing overall computing latency. This new computing paradigm aims to significantly increase the processing capability at the LHC and LIGO, leading to an increased scientific output of these devices and, potentially, foundational discoveries. The students to be mentored and trained in this research will interact closely with industry partners, creating new career opportunities, and strengthening synergies between academia and industry. In addition to sharing algorithms with the community through open source repositories, the team will continue to educate the community regarding credit and citation of scientific software. |

@ University of Connecticut Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) systems are used in a wide range of mission- and safety-critical applications, thus imposing stringent requirements on the security of the underlying communication infrastructure. An IIoT network consists of multiple communication parties and follows a two-way communication model, including delivering sensing data on the uplink and transmitting control messages on the downlink. Tampered sensing data or control messages by outside attackers will result in wrong decisions, potentially causing significant harm. The recent trend in industrial automation to connect interdependent industrial plants together to provide decentralized, verifiable and immutable services further exacerbates the problem. This project aims to design 1) efficient signature schemes to support verifiable authenticity, integrity, and uniformity for intra-plant two-way communications, and 2) hierarchical and scalable blockchain protocols to support inter-plant immutable services. The close collaboration of the research teams will lead to a publicly available IIoT-enabled advanced manufacturing testbed, effective dissemination of research results among practitioners, and initiation of technology transfer. |

Cns Core: Small: Dynamic and Composite Resource Management in Large-Scale Industrial Iot Systems @ University of Connecticut An Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) paradigm aims at creating unified sensing, computing, and control framework to interconnect all the industrial assets with information systems and business processes and to streamline the manufacturing process and lead to optimal industrial operations. Because IIoT applications - including autonomous driving and smart highway, manufacturing automation with robots, etc. - are distinguished from commercial IoT by stringent performance guarantees and certifiable robustness, research is needed to provide a holistic resource management framework that enables effective sensing and control operations in the presence of intermittent data sources and unpredictable system disturbances. This project aims to lay the foundation for such a framework by formulating and investigating three fundamental questions: 1) How to achieve real-time data retrieval with intermittent data sources and large-scale high-speed wireless control with guaranteed performance? 2) How to perform dynamic packet scheduling to compensate for unexpected system disturbances? 3) How to perform composite resource management to jointly consider network and computing resources for resource scheduling among multiple IIoT applications? By addressing these questions, the proposed dynamic and composite resource management framework has the potential to vastly advance the adoption of IIoT technologies, accelerate the transformation of legacy communication infrastructure to advanced wireless infrastructure and boost the nation's economic growth and competitiveness. |

@ University of Connecticut The growing capabilities of sensing, computing and communication devices are leading to an explosion of Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructures. In the meantime, advances in technologies such as autonomous systems and artificial intelligence promise enormous economic and societal benefits. Naturally, it is desirable to deploy these technologies in IoT infrastructures. However, such deployments present daunting changes for increasingly scaled-up IoT infrastructures in mission-critical applications such as medical, energy, transportation, and industrial-automation systems. These challenges stem from several major aspects in terms of scalability. First, the number of edge devices can be enormous, often in the order of billions, which makes centralized management infeasible. Second, there are multiple layers of heterogeneity. An IoT system can consist of heterogeneous computing subsystems; each subsystem can have heterogeneous computing devices; and each single device can be composed of different kinds of computing components. Third, mission-critical applications have stringent requirements in correctness, resilience, timeliness, security and safety. It is difficult for a large-scale IoT system to satisfy these requirements due to increasing opportunities for adversarial activity. |

Collaborative Research: Shf: Medium: Heterogeneous Architecture For Collaborative Machine Learning @ Massachusetts Institute of Technology The recent breakthrough of on-device machine learning with specialized artificial-intelligence hardware brings machine intelligence closer to individual devices. To leverage the power of the crowd, collaborative machine learning makes it possible to build up machine-learning models based on datasets that are distributed across multiple devices while preventing data leakage. However, most existing efforts are focused on homogeneous devices; given the widespread yet heterogeneous participants in practice, it is urgently important but challenging to manage immense heterogeneity. The research team develops heterogeneous architectures for collaborative machine learning to achieve three objectives under heterogeneity: efficiency, adaptivity, and privacy. The proposed heterogeneous architecture for collaborative machine learning is bringing tangible benefits for a wide range of disciplines that employ artificial intelligence technologies, such as healthcare, precision medicine, cyber physical systems, and education. The research findings of this project are intended to be integrated with the existing courses and K-12 programs. Furthermore, the research team is actively engaged in activities that encourage students from underrepresented groups to participate in computer science and engineering research. |
