Mircea Stan, Ph.D., is Director of Computer Engineering at the University of Virginia as well as a Virginia Microelectronics Consortium (VMEC) professor. His research focuses on AI hardware, Processing in Memory, Cyber-Physical Systems, Computational RFID, spintronics, and nanoelectronics. Dr. Stan received a Ph.D. and M.S. from University of Massachusetts Amherst and currently leads the High-Performance Low-Power (HPLP) lab and is an associate director of the Center for Automata Processing (CAP).
On Tuesday September 17, he shared his insights on “CRIPTAG – Computational RFID for Privacy and Trust in IOT Applications.” Stan spoke about cybersecurity measures as it pertains to computational RFID solutions in smart cities.
The implications of this research is that it saves money in factories as it reduces the need for downtime, reduces costs for preventative maintenance of machines and lessens pollution. This will make products like textiles and gasoline cheaper for the everyday individual.
