Five Students successfully complete the KIOS Undergraduate Research Opportunities Programme 2011 The KIOS Research Center runs a summer programme for undergraduate young researchers called UROP, an acronym for Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program. The purpose of UROP is to involve undergraduate students in cutting-edge research within the KIOS Research Center. The emphasis is to encourage young […]

A collaborative effort between the KIOS researchers, Dr Julius Georgiou and Charalambos Andreou, and the Sensory Communications Group of Professor Andreas Andreou, of Johns Hopkins University, has led to the design and fabrication of the world’s lowest power image sensor. The chip was fabricated in a Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company process, via EUROPRACTICE ( http://www.europractice-ic.com). The resulting

Dissemination activities which target the public at large, serve as important mechanisms for informing the wider public on how research projects funded by the EU projects can offer real solutions to contemporary challenges. Very often specific awareness raising activities can also prove to be effective for the dissemination of research results to providers, policymakers, and

The design of manufacturable and dependable systems has received wide attention in the past decades, especially within (safety-) critical scenarios, where the occurrence of a failure could jeopardize missions and/or the health of humans or impact the environment. In particular, several studies have been carried out to tackle the various phases of the design of

On the 9th May 2011, KIOS signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Limassol Water Board to highlight a commitment for collaborative research and to affirm a mutually collaborative approach. The Memorandum of Understanding represents a long term commitment from both parties to work together to address research challenges related to the management of water

The emergence of networked embedded systems and sensor/actuator networks has made possible the collection of large amount of real-time data about a monitored environment. Depending on the application, such data may have different characteristics: multidimensional, multi-scale, spatially distributed, time series, etc.  Moreover, the data values may be influenced by controlled variables, as well as by

Euro coinage has been steadily subject to increasing outlawed counterfeiting activities. The most recent figures bring to 14 the number of illegal mints discovered to date, accompanied with a significant cumulative total of counterfeit coins detected or confiscated. Over 80 classes of counterfeit coins and corresponding tooling and working methods are identified, which by European

Over the recent years, research in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) has gained great momentum mainly because of the potential advantages that this new technology provides. Sensor nodes can be deployed inside a phenomenon to provide in situ, real-time data about the state of the environment, thus sensor networks can provide an interface between the physical

The KIOS Research Center Director, Professor Marios Polycarpou, has been elected the new President of the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society. Professor Marios Polycarpou, will serve as the President-Elect in 2011, the President of the Society in 2012-2013 and the Past-President in 2014. This is definitely a great honor and recognition both for him and our

The KIOS Research Center of the University of Cyprus was selected to lead a networking session, at the recent EU ICT 2010 Conference, following a competitive application process where only a few of the applicants were chosen to lead a networking session. The networking session, coordinated by KIOS Faculty and Researchers, was entitled Trustworthy Critical

Synchronized measurements obtained via instruments equipped with GPS technology are envisioned to enable power systems operators to have a wide area, real-time picture of their system. Synchronized measurement technology is penetrating power systems worldwide; researchers and electric utilities are working on maximizing its use for enhancing the reliability and security of power systems.
