• An adaptive Cyberinfrastructure for Threat Management in Urban Water Distribution Systems
  
• Brief Desciption:
  Threat management in drinking water distribution systems involves real-time characterization of any contaminant source and plume, design of control strategies, and design of incremental data sampling schedules. This requires dynamic integration of time-varying measurements along with analytical modules that include simulation models, adaptive sampling procedures, and optimization methods. These modules are compute-intensive, requiring multi-level parallel processing via computer clusters. Since real-time responses are critical, the computational needs must also be adaptively matched with available resources. This requires a software system to facilitate this integration via a highperformance computing architecture such that the measurement system, the analytical modules and the computing resources can mutually adapt and steer each other. In this project, we are developing such an adaptive cyberinfrastructure system facilitated by a dynamic workflow design.
