  1. Sensors and Emergency Management Mani Chandy Simon Ramo Professor California Institute of Technology

  2. Overview Potential What is being achieved Challenges

  3. Price Pervasiveness Power Potential Producer Push Compare price of bridge: price of an addition in 1969 and 2009C form factor battery requirements Event processing can exploit, distributed, multi-core cloud computing

  4. Potential: Consumer Pull How have your expectations of responsiveness changed in the last decade? What about kids? • Celerity: swiftness of action • Connectedness • Complexity Regulations across states; fraud; arbitrage opportunities

  5. Potential Water Food: Farm to fork Healthcare Energy Security

  6. Overview Potential What is being achieved Challenges

  7. What is being achieved: better response San Andreas

  8. Research: System Design $0 $50,000 $80 $0 40 stations 40 stations 1000 stations 1000 stations

  9. Research: Earthquake response Stop elevators Slow trains Open fire engine doors

  10. System Design • Design that considers • Society • Responders • Physical system • Information technology

  11. Research: System Design Interdicting sources of radiation Caltech Lawrence Livermore National Labs Smiths Detection Corp

  12. Research: Radiation detection Probability map of location of radiation source Cesium spectrum Handheld sensors developed at Caltech by Ryan McLean’s group in Physics Multiplayer game

  13. System Design • Design that considers • Society • Responders • Physical system • Information technology

  14. Customer Distribution Transmission & Sub-transmission Generation Southern California Edison Research: System Design • Situation awareness of the power grid.

  15. Overview Potential What is being achieved Challenges

  16. Challenges • A discipline of cyber-physical systems that integrates • People • Responders • Physical system • Information technology

  17. Challenges • Systematic analysis of tradeoffs • e.g., frequency of false positives versus time to detect radiation • Predictive models; understanding weaknesses • Systematic cost/benefit analysis • Sociology

  18. Overview Potential What is being achieved Challenges THANKS!
