Craig received BS and MS degrees in Chemical Engineering from Montana State University in 1983 and 1985, respectively, and a PhD in Engineering and Applied Science from Idaho State University in 2008. Craig's PhD coursework and dissertation focused on measurements and control, with specific application to intelligent, supervisory ventilation controls for critical infrastructure.

Craig is a senior member of IEEE and has 20 years of software and hardware design experience for process control system upgrades and new installations. Craig has also been a supervisor and technical lead for control systems engineering groups having design, configuration management, and security responsibilities for several INL nuclear facilities and various control system architectures.

He previously worked as a human reliability researcher at Sandia National Laboratories, a usability engineer for Microsoft Corporation and Expedia Corporation, a guest researcher in human–computer interaction at the National Research Council of Canada, and a visiting human factors scientist at OECD Halden Reactor Project.

Ronald and his research team developed the Guideline for Operational Nuclear Usability and Knowledge Elicitation () for conducting human factors in support of nuclear technologies, the Human Unimodel for Nuclear Technology to Enhance Reliability () dynamic human reliability framework, and the Advanced Nuclear Interface Modeling Environment () for prototyping digital interfaces in nuclear power environments. Dr. Boring is the founder of the Human Systems Simulation Laboratory.

Ronald has a PhD in Cognitive Science from Carleton University, a Master's degree in Experimental Psychology from New Mexico State University, and dual Bachelor's degrees in Psychology and German from the University of Montana. He was a Fulbright Academic Scholar to the University of Heidelberg, Germany.

Ronald has published over 300 research articles in a wide variety of human reliability, human factors, and human–computer interaction forums. He is the founder and chair of the Human Error, Reliability, Resilience, and Performance conference, he was co-chair for the 2019 American Nuclear Society Nuclear Power Instrumentation, Controls and Human-Machine Interface Technology () conference, and he is ongoing Chair for the Annual Meeting of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society. He is a fellow of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society.

Brian K. Johnson, PhD, PE
University Distinguished Professor, Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories Endowed Chair in Power Engineering
Brian K. Johnson, PhD, PE, is a University Distinguished Professor and the Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories Endowed Chair in Power Engineering in the University of Idaho Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. Brian received BS, MS, and PhD degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1987, 1989, and 1992, respectively. He joined the University of Idaho shortly after completing his doctoral degree.

He was chair of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering from 2006 to 2012. His teaching and research interests include power system protection, power systems transients, HVDC and FACTS, and resilience controls for critical infrastructure systems. He has advised over 200 part-time and full-time Master's and doctoral students. He has published over 170 papers in journals and conferences.

Dr. Johnson was chair of the IEEE Power and Energy Education Committee from 2014 to 2015, and is currently the chair of the IEEE HVDC and FACTS subcommittee. Dr. Johnson is a registered professional engineer in the State of Idaho.

Timothy McJunkin
Distinguished Researcher, Power and Energy Systems
Timothy McJunkin is a Distinguished Research in the Power and Energy Systems Department of Idaho National Laboratory (INL). At INL since 1999, his current research and development interests include resilient control of critical infrastructure, Smart Grid for renewable energy integration, and cybersecurity. He has performed research in robotics and automation, intelligent systems, and acoustic-based nondestructive examination. Mr. McJunkin has published 20+ peer review journal articles, two book chapter and been awarded 13 patents on topics of computer systems, analytical chemistry instrument systems, industrial automation, Smart Grid, and nondestructive examination. He has served as an Adjunct Faculty member of Idaho State University Electrical Engineering Department and was a co-initiator of the multi-university class in resilient control systems, centered at the public Idaho universities. He is the architect and principal developer of the Grid Game. Prior to joining INL, he was with Compaq Computer Corporation's Industry Standard Server Group (1994–1999) leading board level motherboard design of multiple server products. He holds a Master of Science in electrical and computer engineering from Utah State University and is pursuing his PhD in the University of Idaho's Electrical Engineering Department. At Utah State he was awarded a Rocky Mountain NASA Space Grant Consortium fellowship for his work on autonomous planetary vehicles.

Index

"This book establishes a perspective for readers on the unique challenges of automation in our society, with a focus on a common element we all depend upon, the power grid. Perspectives are provided on a simulation of this real-life system, providing a backdrop on how a power control system works and how it can fail. In addition, the book addresses how systems fail due to threats from cyber security, human error and complex interdependencies. The book also discusses promising concepts that are being investigated to make these control systems more resilient to threats. Resilience fundamentals and applications are also investigated to ensure adequate operation in complex control systems."-- Provided by publisher
