Current Research and Scholarly InterestsNetwork intelligence
There are 2 main aspects of network management:
Sensing
- Collecting useful and enough amount of information from the network is essential for modern, data-centric decision processes to work well.
Frameworks such as In-band Network Telemetry could be utilized to collect precise information on every single packet in the network.
Control
- Modern data science methodologies allow engineers to infer about the state of the network.
Naturally, the next step is to design tailored control algorithms that would utilize available resources the best.
Potential methods include, but not limited to, machine learning algorithms and control theory. -
Manan Arya
Assistant Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsManan Arya leads the Morphing Space Structures Laboratory. His research is on structures that can adapt their shape to respond to changing requirements. Examples include deployable structures for spacecraft that can stow in constrained volumes for launch and then unfold to larger sizes in space, terrestrial structures with variable geometry, and morphing robots. Key research thrusts include lightweight fiber-reinforced composite materials to enable innovative designs for flexible structures, and the algorithmic generation of the geometry of morphing structures – the arrangement of stiff and compliant elements – to enable novel folding mechanisms.
He has published more than 20 journal and conference papers and has been awarded 5 US patents. Prior to joining Stanford, he was a Technologist at the Advanced Deployable Structures Laboratory at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, where he developed and tested breakthrough designs for space structures, including deployable reflectarrays, starshades, and solar arrays.
