  • New configurations of bandpass filters in single and multilayer environment

    Creator:
    Gururajan, Kala
    Abstract:
    Mobile and telecommunication industry has experienced tremendous growth in the recent past. Miniaturization and increased functionality have become necessary for all passive components in the system. Bandpass filters are critical passive components in any communication system and the existing designs in the crucial 1-10 GHz bandwidth suffer many drawbacks. For...

  • Performance of MC-CDMA with pilot code and blind equalization algorithm

    Creator:
    Lesmana, Joseph Sam
    Abstract:
    Various methods and techniques have been introduced and applied to advance the state of the art of mobile wireless communications technology. For example, some techniques are applied to overcome the problem of multipath caused by the mobile environment. Multipath produces replicas of the wanted signal which arrive at the receiver...

  • Information foraging in debugging

    Creator:
    Lawrance, Joseph A.
    Abstract:
    Programmers spend a substantial fraction of their debugging time by navigating through source code, yet little is known about how programmers navigate. With the continuing growth in size and complexity of software, this fraction of time is likely to increase, which presents challenges to those seeking both to understand and...

  • Novel design and implementation of a permanent magnet linear tubular generator for ocean wave energy conversion

    Creator:
    Prudell, Joseph H.
    Abstract:
    The world’s energy consumption is growing at an alarming rate and the need for renewable energy is apparent now more than ever. Estimates have shown that optimization of the extraction of energy from the ocean could significantly aid the world’s quest for sustainable and affordable energy services for all. From...

  • Methods to improve the reliability and resiliency of near/sub-threshold digital circuits

    Creator:
    Crop, Joseph A.
    Abstract:
    Energy consumption is one of the primary bottlenecks to both large and small scale modern compute platforms. Reducing the operating voltage of digital circuits to voltages where the supply voltage is near or below the threshold of the transistors has recently gained attention as a method to reduce the energy...

  • How well do professional developers test with code coverage visualizations? : an empirical study

    Creator:
    Lawrance, Joseph A.
    Abstract:
    Professional software developers do not test code adequately, even though testing tools are widely available. Until developers realize the deficiencies in their tests, inadequate testing of software seems likely to remain a major problem. To support developers writing tests, industry and researchers have proposed systems that visualize “testedness” for end-user...

  • Interactive fault localization techniques to empower the debugging efforts of end-user programmers

    Creator:
    Ruthruff, Joseph Ronald
    Abstract:
    End users develop more software than any other group of programmers, using software authoring devices such as e-mail filtering editors, by-demonstration macro builders, and spreadsheet environments. Despite this, there has been only a little research on finding ways to help these programmers with the dependability of the software they create....

  • Flex-shape convolution and an interactive image segmentation system

    Creator:
    Zhou, Zheng
    Abstract:
    Semantic image segmentation is a relatively difficult task in computer vision. With the advent of deep learning, semantic image segmentation is increasingly of interest for researchers because of the excellent predictions from Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). However, CNNs have proven to struggle with obtaining global context of image due to...

  • Influence of adjustable speed drive on induction motor fault detection using stator current monitoring.

    Creator:
    Al-Shahrani, Ali
    Abstract:
    The detection of motor faults at their incipient stage is of prime importance to any industrial plant. The introduction of adjustable speed drives has improved the control and the efficiency of induction motors, however, this has changed the nature of motor faults and how they can be detected. Current signature...

  • Deep ultraviolet solid-state laser development

    Creator:
    Dutton, David A. (David Adam)
    Abstract:
    There is a new possibility of generating deep ultraviolet laser radiation from a solid-state source. With recent advances in material development, a new nonlinear optical crystal provides a greater damage threshold than current materials making higher conversion efficiencies possible. This thesis examines the possibility of using this crystal to generate...
