Timed Monitorability in Theory and Practice

We will investigate a decision procedure for the monitorability of timed-properties of software controlled systems. A property defines a behaviour that a system is expected to exhibit, or in some cases, to not exhibit. In Runtime Verification, a property is monitorable if it is possible to construct a monitor that can detect the system’s conformance […]

L2M – Electroless nickel-phosphorus composite coating for molding application

The proposed project aims to develop an electroless nickel-phosphorus composite coating for tire molds to address common issues such as product sticking and damage during demolding. By applying this coating, we aim to provide semi-permanent protection and anti-sticking properties to the molds, reducing the need for frequent application of releasing agents. This innovation is expected […]

CAN intrusion dataset for IDS development and digital twin simulation

In-vehicle networks of modern automobiles, particularly Controller Area Networks (CAN), are vulnerable to cyberattacks which can cause dangerous accidents. There are many CAN intrusion detection systems (IDS) that use different techniques and features. While there are several CAN datasets available from real vehicles and CAN testbeds, we identify a lack of datasets containing signals decoded […]

Enhancing Autonomous Driving using Multiple Large Language Models (MLLMs)

Nowadays, leveraging advanced technologies like Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly Large Language Models (LLMs) such as GPT, holds promise in revolutionizing safety measures and resource optimization. However, while these general-purpose LLMs excel in various tasks, they may lack context specificity. Domain-specific LLMs, such as those tailored for biomedicine and transportation, are emerging to address this […]

The Impacts of Driver Monitoring Systems on Mitigating Drowsiness Due to Conditional Automation

Driving automation is becoming increasingly available with the advancement in sensors and computational power. The next generation, i.e., conditional automation, allows drivers to engage in other activities like sleeping. If the system cannot operate in certain conditions due to limitations, the driver is required to takeover vehicle control. However, sleepy drivers might not be fit […]
