Smooth Sensor Motion Planning for Robotic Cyber Physical Social Sensing (CPSS)

Smooth Sensor Motion Planning for Robotic Cyber Physical Social Sensing (CPSS)

Although many researchers have begun to study the area of Cyber Physical Social Sensing (CPSS), few are focused on robotic sensors. We successfully utilize robots in CPSS, and propose a sensor trajectory planning method in this paper. Trajectory planning is a fundamental problem in mobile robotics. However, traditional methods are not suited for robotic sensors, because of their low efficiency,...

Robotic Motion Planning

This paper demonstrates an application of algebraic geometry to the real problem of robotic motion planning. We model an abstract robot arm using a system of polynomial equations specifying constraints imposed by the arm’s various linkages, and demonstrate techniques for solving them in common situations.

Cyber-Physical Security for Wireless Sensor Networks

Cyber-Physical Security is an important topic that needs to properly address. Of particular concern is the field of wireless sensor networks which possess special characteristics that make them especially vulnerable to attacks and natural disasters. This position paper focuses on the critical issues and calls for directed research for finding solutions to these issues.

An Extensible Use Case Modeling Approach for Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs)

The transition from requirements expressed in natural language (NL) to a structured, formalized specification is an important issue to support requirements analysis and to generate an (initial) analysis model. Use case diagrams are commonly used to capture system requirements as use cases, relationships among them and interactions with actors. Using template and restriction rules is a common fe...
