FRANKFORT, Ky. – Kentucky homeowners and renters in Caldwell, Laurel, Pulaski, Russell, Trigg and Union counties who suffered uninsured damage to their property from the May 16-17 tornadoes have two weeks left to apply for federal disaster assistance. The application deadline is Aug.22.
Survivors are encouraged to file insurance claims for damage to their homes, personal property and vehicles before they apply for FEMA assistance. FEMA Individual Assistance cannot duplicate insurance benefits or other sources of assistance.
How To Apply for FEMA Assistance
There are several ways to apply for FEMA assistance:
Online at DisasterAssistance.gov.Visit any Disaster Recovery Center. To find a center close to you, visit fema.gov/DRC, or text DRC along with your Zip Code to 43362 (Example: “DRC 29169”).Use the FEMA mobile app.Call the FEMA Helpline at 800-621-3362. Help is available in many languages. If you use a relay service, such as Video Relay Service (VRS), captioned telephone or other service, give FEMA your number for that service. When you apply, you will need to provide:A current phone number where you can be contacted.Your address at the time of the disaster and the address where you are now staying.Your Social Security Number. A general list of damage and losses.Banking information if you choose direct deposit. If insured, the policy number or the agent and/or the company name.
Survivors should keep their contact information updated with FEMA as the agency may

Work description
Literature review on WiFi localization, with special attention to the WiFi 6 standard, and on the design of reconfigurable smart surfaces (RIS) in the 5GHz band, as well as their respective integration and control methods. Design of a RIS with at least 16×16 elements, for operation at the 5GHz central frequency, considering support for at least two levels of control over the operational status of each RIS unit element. Validation through simulation and anechoic chamber testing of the RIS operation and functional characteristics (i.e., signal redirection and channel manipulation capabilities). Conceptualization and implementation of a RIS-based localization methodology, including a strategy for positioning the RIS (one

Work description
The combination of RISC-V processors with dedicated accelerators is especially promising for edge computing; among these, CGRAs (Coarse Grained Reconfigurable Arrays) stand out for their efficiency and flexibility. However, their use is still limited by integration difficulties and poorly standardized programming models.
This grant explores the use of custom RISC-V instructions as a standardizable integration mechanism, allowing abstraction in the compilation process and transparency in the use of the CGRA by software. Specific objectives:
Adapt an existing state-of-the-art CGRA for integration with a RISC-V processor through custom instructions. Validate the functional integration between RISC-V core and CGRA using in-house co-simulation methods, and simulations of CGRA designs available in the state-of-the-art. Writing a co-authored scientific article to disseminate the results obtained.
