Abstract

By improving transportation efficiency and providing pervasive wireless connectivity, autonomous driving and the Internet-of-Things (IoT) have become the keys to the smart city. My research mainly focuses on design, optimization, and cybersecurity issues in these systems. In this talk, I will sample some of my projects. For instance, I will show the security risks in current enterprise-level autonomous vehicles and introduce corresponding defense strategies. Then, I will briefly talk about new communication schemes and network layer design for next-generation IoT networks. At last, I will conclude this talk with a glimpse of my ongoing and future projects with focusing on the safety and security issues in autonomous driving, the secure collaboration between heterogeneous IoT devices, and the integration between autonomous driving and IoT.
