Shamsnaz S. Virani
Assistant Professor
As the world is becoming more interconnected, and embedded computing devices, e.g. as in the Internet of Things, an intelligent computing and communication network is emerging. To run this new connected electronic world, ECE members are developing smart algorithms for the next generation infrastructure.
Systems Modeling and Engineering Research Lab (SMERL)
The Systems Modeling and Engineering Research Laboratory (SMERL) focuses on two key research areas –
1.Policy Modeling
2.Model based Safety Analysis for complex systems
We primarily work on – 1) Building evidence-based policy analysis and demonstrating the value of using systems engineering methods in policy design, development and implementation, and 2) Leveraging model based systems engineering to integrate system design with safety analysis and automate the generation of safety artifacts.
