  • Parallel Synchronized Randomness Print Exhibition
  • Location: Star Store, New Bedford , Purchase Street, New Bedford
  • Cost: Free admission
  • Contact: University Art Gallery
  • Description: Opening Reception: AHA! Night, July 9 Gallery Talk by Adrian Tio at 6 pm Location: Crapo Gallery & Gallery 244 Star Store Campus, UMass Dartmouth 715 Purchase Street, New Bedford, MA 02740 The College of Visual and Performing Arts presents an exhibition of more than twenty prints by professional printmakers from throughout the United States that were collected as a part of artist exchange organized by Oregon artist Louise Krampien. Krampien described this project as follows: "Parallel Synchronized Randomness (a term adopted from the 2006 French film The Science of Sleep) essentially is a phenomenon which hypothesizes that like minded strangers will inevitably come into contact with each other through the nature of their own actions. The conception of this exchange began in 2000 when the organizer started noticing the personal connections that several of her instructors, peers, and members of past print exchanges already had with one another. The intention of this exchange is to acknowledge and foster this phenomenon by calling attention to several of these particular artists and asking that each participant invites another artist to be a member of the exchange." Portfolio #13 is brought to the UMass Dartmouth Star Store campus by Adrian Tio, Dean of the College of Visual and Performing Arts. Tio, who is also a printmaker, was invited by participating artist Michael Hecht (#9), a fellow member of the Hatch Street Studios in New Bedford. Visitors can enjoy various printmaking techniques such as woodcuts, intaglios, silkscreens, linocuts, and digital glycee. The prints are displayed in numerical order by artist, allowing for unintended dialogues of color, texture, line, shape, value and design. Artists: 1. Andrew Baldwin / 2. Angee Lennard / 3.

  • MASTER OF SCIENCE THESIS DEFENSE BY: Veeresh Varad Basavaraj
  • Location: Science & Engineering Building, Lester W. Cory Conference Room: Room 213A
  • Cost: free
  • Contact: ECE: Electrical & Computer Engineering Department
  • Description: TOPIC: Algorithms for Transportation Network Vulnerability Assessment, Defense, and Restoration LOCATION: Lester W. Cory Conference Room, Science & Engineering Building (Group II), Room 213A ABSTRACT: This thesis presents three algorithms for transportation network vulnerability assessment, defense, and restoration: (i) an algorithm to prioritize transportation network restoration after disruption by a regional event, (ii) a game-theoretic vulnerability assessment methodology, which explicitly considers the impact of link defense on network vulnerability, and (iii) dynamic traffic assignment methods to assess the criticality of links within a public transportation network. Contribution (i) considers a transportation network with multiple types of facilities and multiple types of hazards distributed throughout the network, where some hazards require response from two or more facility types. Contributions (ii) embeds a game within a genetic algorithm to search for a near optimal deployment of defensive technologies for successive stages of the United States High-speed rail (HSR) network. This combination enables notably greater flexibility than traditional game theoretic approaches, which impose a single set of rules and a static setting in which the game is played. Instead, one of the players, the defender, is also permitted to allocate finite resources to identify a modified configuration of the game that optimizes their payoff, in this case minimizing network vulnerability. Contribution (iii) provides a time varying method to assess the criticality of links to network disruptions, whereas previous methods were static and could only consider the relative vulnerability of network links at a fixed point in time. The algorithm to prioritize transportation network restoration after disruption by a regional event introduces an average weighted vulnerability metric to penalize a restoration strategy that do not reduce vulnerability quickly. This metric is employed within a greedy algorithm to identify a near optimal restoration strategy that rapidly reduce vulnerability. The game-theoretic vulnerability assessment methodology can assess the effectiveness of alternative defense strategies in spite of despite dynamically evolving networks, where the vulnerability of the links can increase and decrease over time. This assessment approach makes it possible to compare the relative utility of alternative defense and deterrence strategies. Dynamic traffic assignment methods to assess the criticality of links within a public transportation network can be used to identify both the times when links are most vulnerable to disruption.

  • Description: TOPIC: APPLYING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO SECURE CONNECTED VEHICLES LOCATION: Lester W. Cory Conference Room, Science & Engineering Building (Group II), Room 213A ABSTRACT: Vehicles, equipped with sensing, communication, processing and storage devices, form a transportation ecosystem, which enhance driver safety with collision avoidance, raise transportation efficiency by traffic forecast, and bring in convenience and entertainment via real time travel planning and tourist advertisement. Connected vehicles "talk" to each other and, thus, form vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET). VANET inherits vulnerability from wireless connection or internet access. Therefore, it is critical to protect connected vehicles against hacking and security breaches. The traditional encryption and authentication methods are not suitable to VANET due to high speed mobility and ad hoc nature. Most research activities study either safety with laboratory experiments or efficiency with VANET simulators. Few researches have been conducted on the security and safety protection for VANET. This project explores the application of artificial intelligence to secure connected vehicles. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an area of computing to simulate intelligent behavior in problem solving. By adopting context-adaptive signature verification strategy, similar to human comprehension, the work reduces the computational overhead in validating beacon messages for secured VANET communications. The context-adaptive signature verification strategy requires checking the signature of the initial beacon of new vehicles and from then on it checks for every nth beacon. To prevent intermediate spoofed beacons, a linear estimation methodology is used to estimate future position and speed of the neighboring vehicle. If the estimated positions and those reported in the beacons differ greatly, then signature verification is triggered. Our work starts with understanding of the interplay between vehicle traffic and data traffic in VANET through VANET simulator. We then model the new security scheme with MATLAB. The model indicates the significant saving in computational overhead of our scheme comparing to conventional methods of message verification. Future work will test the scheme under various scenarios. We will also improve the scheme by reducing communication overhead. NOTE: All ECE Graduate Students are ENCOURAGED to attend. All interested parties are invited to attend. Open to the public.

Throughout the course you will work both independently and collaboratively with your peers to gain valuable online course transition experience and develop strategies in online teaching and learning. As a participant, you will learn both pedagogical aspects of teaching online as well as how to use and incorporate many of the tools available in the myCourses Learning Management System used at UMD. The ultimate goal of the course is to have you begin planning, organizing and building the course you eventually plan to teach. In addition, this course will introduce you to tools that will teach you how to self-assess course site design to ensure student ease of access to course content and to facilitate more streamlined student learning and retention.

  • Parallel Synchronized Randomness Print Exhibition
  • Location: Star Store, New Bedford , Purchase Street, New Bedford
  • Cost: Free admission
  • Contact: University Art Gallery
  • Description: Opening Reception: AHA! Night, July 9 Gallery Talk by Adrian Tio at 6 pm Location: Crapo Gallery & Gallery 244 Star Store Campus, UMass Dartmouth 715 Purchase Street, New Bedford, MA 02740 The College of Visual and Performing Arts presents an exhibition of more than twenty prints by professional printmakers from throughout the United States that were collected as a part of artist exchange organized by Oregon artist Louise Krampien. Krampien described this project as follows: "Parallel Synchronized Randomness (a term adopted from the 2006 French film The Science of Sleep) essentially is a phenomenon which hypothesizes that like minded strangers will inevitably come into contact with each other through the nature of their own actions. The conception of this exchange began in 2000 when the organizer started noticing the personal connections that several of her instructors, peers, and members of past print exchanges already had with one another. The intention of this exchange is to acknowledge and foster this phenomenon by calling attention to several of these particular artists and asking that each participant invites another artist to be a member of the exchange." Portfolio #13 is brought to the UMass Dartmouth Star Store campus by Adrian Tio, Dean of the College of Visual and Performing Arts. Tio, who is also a printmaker, was invited by participating artist Michael Hecht (#9), a fellow member of the Hatch Street Studios in New Bedford. Visitors can enjoy various printmaking techniques such as woodcuts, intaglios, silkscreens, linocuts, and digital glycee. The prints are displayed in numerical order by artist, allowing for unintended dialogues of color, texture, line, shape, value and design. Artists: 1. Andrew Baldwin / 2. Angee Lennard / 3.
