Vision

The Center for Intelligent Infrastructure will be the world’s leading research center for intelligent infrastructures. CII will be the center of choices for partners seeking a highly qualified and entrepreneurial workforce, innovative research, and novel ideas to integrate automation, informatics, and actuation into the life-cycle assessment, performance prediction, risk analysis, and post-disaster recovery of infrastructure systems through multi-scale modeling and sensing.

Strategic Plan

There is a critical need to transform currently disparate design, construction, and operation phases of cyber-physical infrastructures into an open-source, cloud-based application featuring computer simulations of physical infrastructures overlaid with cyber and social infrastructure. Such a digital infrastructure initiative will enable grand-scale fundamental and convergent research on the integrated design-build-operation process of infrastructure.
