  • Modeling, Fabrication, and Characterization of Magnetic Thin Films for Integrated Inductor and MRAM Applications

    Creator:
    Buford, Benjamin
    Abstract:
    Magnetic thin films have potential to improve devices such as on-chip inductors, and enable new technologies such as magnetic random access memory (MRAM). The use of magnetic cores in on-chip inductors is typically limited to applications well under 1 GHz. At higher frequencies, the performance of the magnetic core is...

  • Learning greedy policies for the easy-first framework

    Creator:
    Xie, Jun
    Abstract:
    Easy-first, a search-based structured prediction approach, has been applied to many NLP tasks including dependency parsing and coreference resolution. This approach employs a learned greedy policy (action scoring function) to make easy decisions first, which constrains the remaining decisions and makes them easier. This thesis studies the problem of learning...

  • Modeling spintronics devices in Verilog-A for use with industry-standard simulation tools

    Creator:
    Engelbrecht, Linda M.
    Abstract:
    As the semiconductor industry works to integrate increasingly more "non-CMOS" devices onto CMOS ICs, compact model development has become an important step in the circuit/system verification tool flow. This research focuses on the two- and three-dimensional modeling of the physical phenomena that occur in nanoscale magnetic devices. This includes the...

  • Design of low OSR, high precision analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Rajaee, Omid
    Abstract:
    Advances in electronic systems have lead to the demand for high resolution, high bandwidth Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs). Oversampled ADCs are well- known for high accuracy applications since they benefit from noise shaping and they usually do not need highly accurate components. However, as a consequence of oversampling, they have limited...

  • Fabrication of Cost-effective Flexible Glucose Sensor for Continuous Glucose Monitoring

    Creator:
    Mullapudi, Sri Sai Kameswara
    Abstract:
    Diabetes is a pandemic that affects nearly 29.1 million Americans and the fourth leading cause of mortality in the US. Type 1 diabetes is a chronic condition which occurs due to little to no production of insulin by the pancreas. This form of diabetes requires constant monitoring of blood glucose...

  • Machine learning for improving the quality of citizen science data

    Creator:
    Yu, Jun
    Abstract:
    Citizen Science is a paradigm in which volunteers from the general public participate in scientific studies, often by performing data collection. This paradigm is especially useful if the scope of the study is too broad to be performed by a limited number of trained scientists. Although citizen scientists can contribute...

  • On the limits of mutation analysis

    Creator:
    Gopinath, Rahul
    Abstract:
    Mutation analysis is the gold standard for evaluating test-suite adequacy. It involves exhaustive seeding of all small faults in a program and evaluating the effectiveness of test suites in detecting these faults. Mutation analysis subsumes numerous structural coverage criteria, approximates fault detection capability of test suites, and the faults produced...

  • Helping end-user programmers find and fix performance problems in visual code

    Creator:
    Chambers, Chris
    Abstract:
    End-user programmers often struggle to create programs that run quickly and effectively, which can be a major deterrent in completing their tasks as desired. Current research has primarily focused on catching user mistakes, such as errors or misused formulas. However, end users deal with issues other than just correctness. In...
