REU Site: Research Experience for Undergraduates in Mobile Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs)

这个网站是由国防部与NSF REU计划共同资助的。这笔资金在德克萨斯州立大学圣马科斯分校建立了一个新的CEISE本科生研究体验(REU)网站，专注于移动网络物理系统(Mobile CPSS)。学生们将使用该大学移动CPS实验室中的机器人和传感器，为各种应用开发安全、高效和节能的机制。学生将接触到控制和优化理论以及为移动CPSS开发的新技术。全国范围的招生程序被用来挑选一批本科生参加主办机构为期十周的暑期研究项目。学生将从广泛的大学招生，确保妇女、退伍军人和少数族裔的参与。该项目包括由经验丰富的计算机科学教员进行指导、技术研讨会和研讨会、学生演示、实地考察和其他职业发展机会。这个项目的智力价值在于雄厚的研究基础和教师的专业知识。这些项目的研究领域是最新的，涉及国家优先事项，如网络安全和可持续性。学生参与各种研究活动，从准备研究文献综述到研究成果的产生和传播。该项目有可能增加网络物理系统的新兴研究基础。该项目的更广泛影响包括为本科生，特别是来自代表性不足群体的学生提供高质量的研究体验。该项目团队致力于将代表不足的少数族裔学生纳入他们的研究。因此，这个项目有可能产生新的计算机科学研究生和教职员工，并在促进学习的同时促进发现和理解。

This site is co-funded by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program. This funding establishes a new CISE Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site at Texas State University - San Marcos focused on mobile cyber-physical systems (Mobile CPSs). The students will develop secure, efficient, and energy-aware mechanisms for various applications using the robots and sensors in the Mobile CPS Lab at the university. Students will be exposed to control and optimization theory as well as new technologies developed for Mobile CPSs. A nationwide recruitment process is used to select cohorts of undergraduate students to participate in a ten-week summer research program at the host institution. Students will be recruited from a wide range of universities, ensuring the participation of women, veterans, and minorities. The project includes mentoring by the experienced computer science faculty members, technical seminars and workshops, student presentations, and field trips and other professional development opportunities. The intellectual merit of this project lies in strong research basis and the expertise of the faculty. The projects are in research areas that are current and address national priorities such as cyber security and sustainability. The students participate in a full range of research activities from preparing research literature reviews to production and dissemination of research results. The project has the potential to add to the emerging research base of cyber-physical systems. The broader impacts of the project include providing a quality research experience to undergraduate students, particularly students from underrepresented groups. The project team is committed to including under-represented minority students in their research. Thus this project has the potential to produce new computer science graduate students and faculty members and to advance discovery and understanding while promoting learning.
