Purdue University researchers have launched Project FIREFLY, aiming to enhance the robustness of cyber-physical systems (CPS) to prevent disruptions and damages in mission-critical applications for the Department of Defense. The $6.5 million project under the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency will model, simulate, and analyze CPS to identify vulnerabilities and improve system scalability.
Key Takeaways from the Meeting Notes:
– Purdue University researchers have launched the FIREFLY project to address weaknesses and failures in consumer cyber-physical systems (CPS), particularly in mission-critical applications for the Department of Defense.
– The $6.5 million project is sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency under its FIRE program and aims to model, simulate, and analyze CPS to enhance their robustness.
– The project, led by Dongyan Xu, aims to expose and analyze weaknesses that may occur when multiple cyber and physical components interact within a CPS.
– More information about the research is available on the Purdue Office of Research website.
