TL;DR: This manuscript presents an approach to develop models of the decisions of the cyber-physical intruder who is attacking the systems and the system operator who is defending it, and demonstrates its usefulness for design.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an approach to develop such tools, i.e., models of the decisions of the cyber-physical intruder who is attacking the systems and the system operator who is defending it, and demonstrate its usefulness for design.

TL;DR: A stochastic model of attacker behavior which is motivated by real world attacker traversal is introduced and a likelihood ratio detector is developed that compares the probability of observed network behavior under normal conditions against the case when an attacker has possibly compromised a subset of hosts within the network.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the potential for a simple auction to allocate arrival slots during Ground Delay Programs (GDPs) more efficiently than the currently used system and found that the second-price slot auction has the potential to lower social costs but further analysis is needed to determine which pre-GDP schedules are best suited for an auction.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the ongoing development of Air Carrier Behavioral Modeling techniques and their application to a test case, i.e., the implementation and equipage dynamics of Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) in the high altitude Gulf of Mexico (GoMex) airspace.
