Two professors and six students in the College of Engineering and Computer Science help to develop apps for Ford Motor Company's new SYNC application programming interface
January 12, 2010
DEARBORN / Jan. 12, 2010---Six engineering students at the University of Michigan-Dearborn were invited to be among the first developers to adapt Ford Motor Companys new SYNC application programming interface (API) for in-car voice-controlled Smartphone mobile apps.
Under the direction of Brahim Medjahed, assistant professor of computer and information science at UM-Dearborn, and Paul Watta, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at UM-Dearborn, students Kristopher Bechamp, Samip Desai, Matt Hartzel, Brandon King, Ed Malinowski and Rob Muir were granted use of Ford's Developers' License, becoming the world's first SYNC app developers and creating two SYNC-enabled mobile applications using SYNC APIs.
And, the student-created apps adhere to automotive safety standards through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Department of Transportation.
This was a wonderful way for our students to gain invaluable real-world experience, said Medjahed. They had the opportunity to participate in a collaborative research project with a global enterprise as significant as Ford while developing their entrepreneurial skills. The students learned how to think fast and learn fast. They also developed new technical skills such as programming to cars and mobile computing.
Medjahed and Watta submitted a proposal to Ford to work on the project, which was funded as part of the Ford Michigan Alliance Program, and once accepted, discussed the opportunity with potential students before selecting six from the CIS and ECE departments, five of which are undergraduates.
This was a fast-track project, Medjahed said. We were able to develop and demonstrate a proof-of-concept to Ford in three months. We were fortunate to work with very good students and received tremendous support from College of Engineering and Computer Science Dean Subrata Sengupta and Henry W. Patton Center for Engineering Education and Practice Director John Cristiano to buy the equipment needed for this project.
Beginning the project, the students visited the iPhone App Store to winnow down the roughly 100,000 active apps to those that would be relevant for in-car use. Hoping to modify an existing app, the next hurdle was gaining access to the source code behind the apps. Legal restrictions, extensive developer agreements and the short timeline forced a reality check: None of the readily available open-source software was applicable to the in-vehicle scenario. So the students scrapped the initial plan to modify an existing app, and instead collaborated on their own applications for SYNC - built from scratch.
Ford developers had already been working on an API, internally referred to as SYNCLink, allowing connectivity between mobile device applications and the vehicle interface. The students sorted through more than 100 different concepts with the Ford API team, finally narrowing their focus to two areas; audio infotainment (internet music, news and talk show streaming sites) and GPS location-based navigation services. The resulting apps included a mash-up of infotainment features codenamed "SYNCcast" and "FollowMe." SYNCcast lets users enjoy Internet radio in the vehicle. The navigation app called "FollowMe" allows two or more friends to follow a lead vehicle to a location without the need to physically follow each other, thanks to GPS turn-by-turn directions transmitted from the leader to the followers and read aloud to the drivers.
These apps allow the driver to access this added functionality in a safe way, Watta said. It's one thing to be able to enjoy Internet radio in a car; it's another to be able to do it in a safe way traveling 60-plus miles per hour.
The work done through Ford's collaboration with UM-Dearborn is expected to lead to a planned 2010 release of the full open API to trusted developer partners.
It was an excellent learning experience for our students to be involved in a high profile project like this, Watta said. They did a great job under very stringent time constraints. Students were encouraged to think like an entrepreneur, identify a real need, find a solution, and develop a product in a short amount of time. We are proud of the hard work the students put in and what they achieved.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (June 5, 2009) — Strawberry Tart, a 13-1outsider, rallied in the middle of the course under jockey Martin Garcia to post a 2 1/2-length victory over Jehan in Friday night's $87,335 Manhattan Beach Stakes at Hollywood Park.
The upset helped setup a Pick Six carryover of $89,027.
Strawberry Tart, seventh in the field of eight 3-year-old fillies on the backstretch, moved into contention six-wide turning for home. The daughter of Atticus took control in the final sixteenth while covering six furlongs on the Lakeside Turf Course in 1:08.70.
The victory was the third in five starts for Strawberry Tart, who was making her first start on turf. She paid $29, $15.60 and $7.40. Jehan returned $8.80 and $6, while the show payoff on Fastongrass was $4.80.

Hitting Back at Hackers: Do Two Wrongs Make a Right?
Deloitte Debates
|Subscribe to receive updates when new Debates are released:
|Receive emails | RSS (What is RSS?)
If your organization is hit by a cyber-attack, turning the matter over to the authorities is the appropriate course of action. But, if you're able to stop the attack yourself by taking out the hacker's servers, should you hit back at the hackers?
When companies are hit by cyber-attacks, some may feel – with good reason – that they have no recourse other than to strike back. Law enforcement's response can be lumbering and, currently, there are few options for collaborating with others on cyber-security challenges. Yet, before you try to take out a perpetrator's servers, consider the risks. Increasingly, attacks are launched from within IT environments of legitimate organizations that may have no idea they've been breached. Striking back may help stop an attack in progress, but it also could have unintended consequences. Given these considerations, are there times when hitting back at hackers is the more effective response?
Explore all sides below by clicking on each button:
|Why can't I take out a hacker's servers?
Someone has interrupted my ability to do business and I know who it is.
|You might be hitting back at an innocent party.
The organization that owns the servers could be unaware that the hacker has invaded its systems.
|Reporting the incident to the government only makes things worse.
If I tell the authorities I've been hacked, word could get out and my reputation might suffer. What's more, the government can be slow to act.
|Hitting back is illegal.
Your concerns are understandable, but remember, taking out someone else's server is just as illegal as hacking it. Hitting back may make you feel better, but it may only make a bad situation worse.
|Working with my competitors to thwart hackers is risky.
If I don't warn my competitors, they could be hacked too. But, I'm afraid that the information I share could give them a competitive advantage.
|If everyone shares attack information, everyone wins.
Your competitors face the same cyber security challenges you face. It is in everyone's best interest to work together to find solutions.
|It was only a minor attack. I'll ignore it.
There's no point in hitting back or reporting it to the authorities. I'll just make sure my security software is current and hope it doesn't happen again.
|All attacks should be reported.
Even minor incidents may reveal information that can help organizations detect a trend or develop a systemic solution that closes the holes.
My take
Kelly Bissell, Principal, Deloitte & Touche LLP
As tempting as it may be to respond to cyber-attacks by disabling the servers from which they are launched, organizations should only hit back at hackers by working through legal channels and with the appropriate law enforcement officials. In fact, the law may soon require nothing less: In 2011, the SEC Division of Corporate Finance issued guidance that, if enacted into law, will require companies to report cyber-attacks to the government.1
Some private sector organizations have expressed concerns that such reporting requirements may lead to their servers being seized as part of an investigation, or lead to brand and reputation issues if news of an attack is made public.
While such concerns are understandable, I believe that the government's proposed requirements may actually lead to a new public/private partnership that might address the private sector's concerns and make it possible to address cyber-crime more effectively. Here's how it could work: The private sector, working with law enforcement, could establish a clearing house that aggregates information on the cyber threats that companies across the United States encounter. This clearing house should analyze the collected data and share it with federal law enforcement officials, who could then act on it. Furthermore, when hackers launch an attack against a particular company, the clearing house – acting as a monitoring agency of sorts – could alert other companies in the same sector that they may be vulnerable. Collaborating in this way, the public and private sectors could identify the bad guys, develop a greater understanding of where and how they operate and thwart attacks the moment they commence.
There have been many attempts at this (e.g., FBI InfraGard, Secret Service Electronic Crime Task Force (ECTF)). The one thing that has often been a strain in these relationships is that it is a one-way street when it comes to information sharing. Private sector pumps in data and the government uses it, but is very limited in sharing with companies. The new public/private clearinghouse should be a two-way street.
Clearly, it is likely to take significant coordination to make a public/private partnership on this scale work. But with the frequency of cyber-attacks increasing each year, a concerted effort may be among the most effective alternatives to having each company striking back angrily at hackers and, by doing so, potentially making a bad situation worse. Like my mom always said, "two wrongs do not make a right."
