Infusing Resilience and Collaborative Stewardship into Connected and Autonomous Vehicles
This proposed project will address safety, resilience, and fairness dimensions in CAV manufacturing and deployment. It will review the security issues, types of cyberattacks, and security approaches to specific V2X communications. It will focus on how cybersecurity plays a role in ensuring the security of traffic control applications and enabling technologies being developed by CCAT. The project will recommend appropriate cybersecurity approaches for specific CCAT applications. It will aid in the design of holistic cyber security infrastructures in CAVs, enabling low-income and low-access populations to gain access to the technology during the development and deployment phases. The project will address several research gaps in understanding how connected and autonomous vehicles would enhance the resilience of the transportation sector to natural extreme events. It will address conflicting factors such as minimizing carbon footprint, lowering environmental impacts, and economic development through innovation and conserving precious and strategic natural resources for the future through a balanced energy portfolio. It will study the role clean and renewable energy plays in CAV manufacturing. The project will also investigate fairness in access and participation by all communities in developing and deploying CAVs.
