Research Assistant: IoT/CPS Data Analytics and Zero-Trust
Research assistant and postdoc position are available in the research area of IoT/CPS data analytics and web 3.0 (including blockchain). The candidate will join the Sensorweb Research Laboratory to create innovative IoT/CPS time-series data analytics methodologies and zero-trust designs for health and security monitoring applications. The lab currently focuses on three issues: (1) cyber-physical security monitoring by auditing the cyber and electrical signals in electrical infrastructure and manufacturing systems; (2) human and animal health and safety health (especially vital signs) and activity monitoring via contactless sensing. (3) decentralized zero-trust IoT data fabric based on web 3.0 (including blockchain).
About the lab and faculty advisor:
The lab’s vision is “Connecting Dots for Intelligence” and currently has 5 PhD and 2 MS students. The faculty advisor Dr. WenZhan Song is the Endowed Chair Professor of Computer Engineering and Founding Director of Center for Cyber-Physical Systems. He is a world leading expert on IoT/CPS analytics & security and received numerous important honors and awards, including NSF CAREER award 2010, Mark Weiser Best Paper Award 2020, and multiple Research Excellence awards. He works closely with government and industry partners on technology innovation and commercialization.
