  • Design of a variable gain, high linearity, low power baseband filter for WLAN transmitters

    Creator:
    Ranganathan, Sachin
    Abstract:
    A variable gain, high linearity, low power baseband filter for WLAN applications is implemented in a 1.5 V 3 V 0.15 μm CMOS process. This fourth-order low-pass filter, which is introduced in the transmit channel as a reconstruction filter between the D/A converter and the mixer, has a measured cut-off...

  • Generalizing WYSIWYT for use in the screen transition paradigm

    Creator:
    Brown, Darren
    Abstract:
    How can rigorous forms of testing be supported in a way that is both compatible with the visual aspect of visual programming languages, and usable by the audiences using those languages - even when the audience has no background in software engineering? Visual programs are likely to contain at least...

  • Random number generation on handheld devices for cryptographic applications

    Creator:
    Montville, Adam W.
    Abstract:
    Random number generation is important in many fields today. It is particularly important in the field of cryptography when generating nonce values, cryptographic keys, and other data required in many cryptographic applications. The proliferation of small, handheld devices that are typically connected to large networks via a wireless connection requires...

  • Three methods for estimating subpixel cover fractions in coarse resolution imagery

    Creator:
    Damon, Diane L.
    Abstract:
    Coarse resolution imagery, such as that produced by the MODIS instrument, poses the challenge of estimating sub-pixel proportions of di erent land cover types. This problem is di cult because of the variety and variability of vegetation within individual pixels. This thesis describes and compares two existing algorithms for estimating...

  • Development of zinc tin oxide-based transparent thin-film transistors

    Creator:
    Chiang, Hai Q.
    Abstract:
    The focus of this thesis involves development of highly transparent, n-channel, accumulation- mode thin-film transistors employing a zinc tin oxide (ZTO) channel layer. ZTO-based transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs) show improved device performance compared to ZnO-based TTFTs. An estimated peak effective mobility for these devices as high as ~100 cm² V⁻¹sec⁻¹...

  • Calibrating recurrent sliding window classifiers for sequential supervised learning

    Creator:
    Joshi, Saket Subhash
    Abstract:
    Sequential supervised learning problems involve assigning a class label to each item in a sequence. Examples include part-of-speech tagging and text-to-speech mapping. A very general-purpose strategy for solving such problems is to construct a recurrent sliding window (RSW) classifier, which maps some window of the input sequence plus some number...

  • Hardware encryption using the MPC180 security co-processor

    Creator:
    Banerjee, Uday
    Abstract:
    Hardware cryptography offers a reliable way to provide security for data that is sent over networks. Security processors have taken the stage in the movement for secure computing. Some of the more prominent security processors belong to the S1 family created by Motorola. The primary goal of this thesis is...

  • Sequential supervised learning and conditional random fields

    Creator:
    Ashenfelter, Adam J.
    Abstract:
    Supervised learning is concerned with discovering the relationship between example sets of features and their corresponding classes. The traditional supervised learning formulation assumes that all examples are independent from one another. The order of the examples contains no information. Nonetheless, many problems have a sequential nature. Classifiers for these problems...

  • Ferroelectric thin film development

    Creator:
    Harman, Taran V.
    Abstract:
    The long-term goal of the research project initiated with this thesis is the development of lead-free, fully-transparent ferroelectric devices, such as ferroelectric capacitors or ferroelectric-gate field-effect transistors. Ferroelectric materials exhibit spontaneous polarization with the application of an external electric field, which is persistent upon removal of the applied field, and...

  • Effects of interruption-style on end-user programmers

    Creator:
    Robertson, T. J. (Thomas James)
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents the results of two studies that investigate the question of what interruption-styles are most appropriate for end-user programmers who are debugging programs. In the studies, end-user programmers are presented with surprises that encourage them to investigate, use, and learn about debugging devices in their programming environment. We...
