Cybersecurity for the Grid
Former postdoctoral researcher Alaa Selim received a Young Professional Travel Grant to participate in IEEE SmartGridComm at Texas A&M University. The grant supported his presentation of PowerGuard, a tool developed in Professor Junbo Zhao's lab, CREATE: Cyber-Physical Resilience Empowering A Transformative Energy Future. "Building on our previous research, PowerGuard combines communication monitoring with physics-based grid models to detect cyberattacks targeting solar inverter controls, and automatically restore safe operating conditions. We are exploring how this approach can be integrated into agentic AI frameworks to help utility operators assess cyber threats, understand their impact on the grid, and make informed control decisions," said Selim.

Optimizing Regional Airlines
Professor Vikrant Vaze is co-author of "Integrated Schedule Planning for Regional Airlines Using Column Generation" published in Transportation Science. "Where, how often, when, and with what aircraft an airline operates its flights decides passenger demand and costs. Ours is the first study to jointly optimize all these decisions by developing a new algorithm resulting in significant profit improvements and better ability to serve small and rural communities with connections to larger hub airports," said Vaze.
