Abstract:

A cyber-physical controller (CPC) uses computing to control a physical process. Example CPCs can be found in self-driving automobiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, and other autonomous systems. They are also used in large-scale industrial control systems (ICSs) manufacturing and utility infrastructure. CPC operations rely on embedded systems having real-time, high-assurance interactions with physical processes. However, recent attacks like Stuxnet have demonstrated that CPC malware is not restricted to networks and general-purpose computers, rather embedded components are targeted as well. G

Abstract:

Students and teachers encounter new challenges as Nordic countries, and many other countries decided to implement computational thinking and programming into the compulsory education curriculum. Likewise, universities have modified programmes to respond to the skills required in the future’s digital world. Computational thinking is nowadays a fundamental skill for problem-solving, and to successfully implement it to education, new approaches and methods need to be developed. This paper explored the use of a physical computing platform called Arduino as a means of introducing computational thin

Abstract:

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), whose experiments include the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS), produces over 30 million gigabytes of data annually, and implements a distributed computing architecture—a tiered hierarchy, from Tier-0 through Tier-3—in order to process and store all of this data. Out of all of the computing tiers, Tier-3 clusters allow scientists the most freedom and flexibility to perform their analyses of LHC data. Tier-3 clusters also provide local services such as login and storage services, provide a means to locally host and analyze LHC data, and allow both remote and local us

Abstract:

In spite of numerous educational practices and initiatives in programming (Rubio, Romero-Zaliz, Mañoso, & Angel, 2015), women show less participation in learning programming compared to men (Faulkner & McClard, 2014; Harris, 2014). Lack of interest and motivation could explain the gender gap (Faulkner & McClard, 2014; Fisher & Margolis 2002). Interest can be raised and kept high by a variety of triggers, therefore they are salient motivational factors, which can lead to motivation and finally to engagement (Kangas, Siklander, Randolph, & Ruokamo, 2017; Krapp, 2003; Renninger & Bachrach, 2015;

Abstract:

In algorithmic computing, the program follows a predefined set of rules – the algorithm. The analyst/designer of the program analyzes the intended tasks of the program, defines the rules for its expected behaviour and programs the implementation. The creators of algorithmic software must therefore foresee, identify and implement all possible cases for its behaviour in the future application! However, what if the problem is not fully defined? Or the environment is uncertain? What if situations are too complex to be predicted? Or the environment is changing dynamically? In many such cases algor

The research presented in this thesis covers two specific problems within the larger domain of cyber-physical algorithms for enhancing collaboration between one or more people.

The domain was broken down at opposite extremes in order to derive these problems to work on: 1) collaborations that are planned long in advance and deviations from the plan need to be detected and 2) collaborations that are not planned and need t

Abstract:

We describe a method for computing rank (and determining quasipositivity) in the free group using dynamic programming. The algorithm is adapted to computing upper bounds on the rank for braids. We test our method on a table of knots by identifying quasipositive knots and calculating the ribbon genus. We consider the possibility that rank is not theoretically computable and prove some partial results that would classify its computational complexity. We then present a method for effectively brute force searching band presentations of small rank and conjugate length.

The advent of quantum computing has challenged classical conceptions of which problems are efficiently solvable in our physical world. This raises the general question of what broad relationships exist between physical principles and computation.

In particular, we investigate the limits on computational power imposed by simple physical principles.

Abstract:

The smart grid is the next-generation electrical infrastructure utilizing Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), whose architecture is evolving from a utility-centric structure to a distributed Cyber-Physical System (CPS) integrated with a large-scale of renewable energy resources. However, meeting reliability objectives in the smart grid becomes increasingly challenging owing to the high penetration of renewable resources and changing weather conditions. Moreover, the cyber-physical attack targeted at the smart grid has become a major threat because millions of electronic devices

Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.<br>Includes bibliography<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Introduction: The increased prevalence of adolescent upper quadrant musculoskeletal pain (UQMP) is becoming a great concern to health professionals. The risk factors associated with adolescent UQMP are complex and multifactorial, including, among others sitting as a physical risk factor. However, no evidence exists to support sitting postural angles as a potential predictive factor for adolescent UQMP in computing high school students. Thus, the current project aimed to describe the three-dimensional (3D

Abstract:

Cyber-physical systems are networked through IT infrastructure and susceptible to malware. Threats targeting process control are much more safety-critical than traditional computing systems since they jeopardize the integrity of physical infrastructure. Existing defence mechanisms address security at the network nodes but do not protect the physical infrastructure if network integrity is compromised. An interface guardian architecture is implemented on cyber-physical control leaf nodes to maintain process integrity by enforcing high-level safety and stability policies. Preemptive detection s

Abstract:

Laser-cooled atomic ions have led to an unprecedented amount of control over the quantum states of matter. The Coulombic interaction allows for information to be transferred between neighboring ions, and this interaction can be used to entangle qubits for logic operations in quantum information processors. The same procedure for logic operations can be used for high resolution atomic spectroscopy, and is the basis for the most accurate atomic optical clocks to date. This thesis describes how laser-cooled atomic ions can impact physical chemistry through the development of molecular ion spectr

Abstract:

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) have become one of the greatest research topics today; because they pose a new complex discipline, which addresses big existing and future systems as the Internet, the Internet of Things, sensors networks and smart grids. As a recent discipline, there are many possibilities to improve the state of the art, interoperability being one of the most relevant. Thus, this thesis has been created within the framework of interoperability for CPS, by using the SOS (Sensor Observation Service) standard, which belongs to the SWE (Sensor Web Enablement) framework of the OGC

Dopo aver introdotto origine e significato del termine making e descritto il "movimento maker", verrà discussa l’introduzione del making nelle scuole, esaminando anche la situazione nel contesto della scuola italiana. Questo lavoro di tesi propone una serie di lezioni off-the-shelf, ciascuna contenen- te indicazioni di materiali e competenze necessarie, competenze acquisite e possibili collegamenti interdisciplinari da approfondire in classe. Per ogni le- zione viene fornito anche il codice del risultato atteso (anche se appoggiando un approccio costruzionista, sono possibili più soluzioni e
