Game-Theoretic Framework for Resilient, Robust and Secure Cyber-Physical Systems Monday, February 25, 2013 - 10:00am - 11:00am KEC 1007
Quanyan Zhu PhD Candidate Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Abstract: With its rich set of conceptual, analytical and algorithmic tools, game theory has emerged as providing a versatile and effective framework for addressing issues of robustness, resilience, and security (RRS) in modern critical infrastructures. Such systems are composed of many interacting human, cyber and physical components at multiple layers. Addressing issues of RRS will require a divide-and-conquer approach, and at the same time a holistic system viewpoint. The talk will first introduce game- and control-theoretic approaches for modeling multi-layer and multi-agent interactions in cyber-physical systems. It will then present the recently developed resilient control theory for efficient cyber and physical system integrations for achieving cyber security against attackers and robustness of physical system against noise and disturbances. The talk will also discuss the games-in-games principle and multi-resolution game theory to address strategic decision-making residing[LI! NK] at multiple layers of the cyber-physical system. Specific examples will be drawn from communication networks and smart energy systems for illustration of these concepts.Speaker Biography: Quanyan Zhu is a PhD candidate at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Coordinated Science Laboratory (CSL) at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC).
