  • Video streaming in unstructured peer-to-peer networks

    Creator:
    Furtado, Craig
    Abstract:
    With the increase in demand for streaming media capabilities across the Internet, the focus has shifted from traditional client-server to peer-to-peer approaches. Content Distribution Networks (CDNs) have also recently moved from web acceleration to media streaming. P2P CDNs can be used both as a delivery mechanism and as an independent...

  • Modeling and development of p-type thin-film transistors

    Creator:
    Spiegelberg, Matthew Craig
    Abstract:
    The primary focus of this thesis involves modeling and development of p-type thin-film transistors (p-TFTs), moving towards the realization of a filly transparent thin-film transistor (TTFT). The modeling portion of this thesis emphasizes the development of physics-based TFT models, specifically focusing on the elucidation of non-ideal current-voltage characteristic behavior. A...

  • Characterization of solution-based inorganic semiconductor and dielectric materials for inkjet printed electronics

    Creator:
    Munsee, Craig L.
    Abstract:
    The long-term goal of this research project is the development of solution-based inorganic dielectric and semiconductor materials for inkjet printed electronics. The main focus of this thesis involves testing of the materials and devices under development. A new solution-based inorganic dielectric material (HfOSO₄), given the name hafsox, is developed and...

  • Distributed temperature sensing with neodymium-doped optical fiber

    Creator:
    Lounsbury, Jimson S.
    Abstract:
    Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells are being studied for use as high efficiency power plants in alternative fuel vehicles. To maintain high efficiency the operating temperatures of the membranes in these fuel cells must be closely monitored and controlled. However, the environment inside of the fuel cell is not...

  • TIMR : Time Interleaved Multi Rail

    Creator:
    Ruggeri, Thomas L.
    Abstract:
    This work presents a new energy saving technique for modern digital designs. We propose Time Interleaved Multi-Rail (TIMR) - a method for providing two dynamic supply rails to a circuit. This technique uses the first supply rail to mask the transition delay while changing the voltage of the second rail....

  • Location Privacy-Preserving Strategies for Secondary Spectrum Use

    Creator:
    Grissa, Mohamed
    Abstract:
    The scarcity of wireless spectrum resources and the overwhelming demand for wireless broadband resources have prompted industry, government agencies and academia within the wireless communities to develop and come up with effective solutions that can make additional spectrum available for broadband data. As part of these ongoing efforts, cognitive radio...

  • Delay Performance Evaluation of the IEC 61850 Standard in Power Transmission Substations

    Creator:
    Safdar, Salman
    Abstract:
    Substations are a crucial element at the transmission and distribution level of electric power systems. The primary substation equipment (power transformers and high voltage switching equipment) is used to transfer and transform electric energy by stepping up or down the voltage in transmission substations. Secondary equipment (such as IEDs, Intelligent...

  • Layered rendering model for human teeth

    Creator:
    Shetty, Sudarshanram
    Abstract:
    This study introduces a layered model for rendering human teeth. Human teeth exhibit complex light interaction due to their layered structure. While the lighting responses of teeth have been studied in the dental industry for the production of realistic looking dentures, to our knowledge this is the first study of...

  • Learning and Improving Policies for Probabilistic Planning Problems

    Creator:
    Issakkimuthu, Murugeswari
    Abstract:
    In this work, we study the problem of learning and improving policies for probabilistic planning problems. In the first part, we train neural network policies for probabilistic planning problems modeled as factored Markov decision problems. The objective is to train problem-specific neural networks via supervised learning to imitate the action...

  • On Avoiding Power-Seeking by Artificial Intelligence

    Creator:
    Turner, Alexander M.
    Abstract:
    We do not know how to align a very intelligent AI agent's behavior with human interests. I investigate whether—absent a full solution to this AI alignment problem—we can build smart {\ai} agents which have limited impact on the world, and which do not autonomously seek power. In this thesis, I...
