Ming Yu

Ming Yu is a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Florida A&M University (FAMU) and Florida State University (FSU) College of Engineering. He holds a Ph.D. from Rutgers University (2002) and a Doctor of Engineering from Tsinghua University (1994). His research focuses on cyber-physical systems (CPS) security, smart grid communications, wireless sensor networks (WSN), and intelligent transportation systems (ITS). He has secured funding from agencies like NSA, ONR, NSF, and Florida DOT for projects such as the FREEDM smart grid initiative and WSN jamming attack detection.

Dr. Yu has served on the DOE Smart Grid R&D Roadmap and NSF review panels. He has published extensively in top journals/conferences including IEEE Transactions and GLOBECOM, with a focus on secure communication protocols, network modeling, and fault management. His work bridges theory and practice, addressing critical challenges in CPS resilience and grid reliability.
