  • Dynamic Methods to Improve Streaming of H.264 HD Video Over 802.11 Wireless Networks

    Creator:
    Sinky, Mohammed H.
    Abstract:
    Wireless High Definition Video Transmission (WHDVT) over 802.11-based networks enjoys widespread deployment among today's multimedia solutions. Examples include Intel® Wireless Display and Apple Airplay®, to name a few. In these systems, peer-to-peer networks are established over which H.264-encoded video is transported wirelessly to be decoded and played back at the...

  • A tunable duty-cycle-controlled switched-R-MOSFET-C CMOS filter for low-voltage and high-linearity applications

    Creator:
    Xiao, Ying
    Abstract:
    A novel switched-R-MOSFET-C input branch is proposed for low-voltage and high-linearity applications. The tunability is achieved by varying the clock duty cycle using an automatic tuning circuit. This tuning method does not involve a change in gate voltage, and is therefore particularly suitable for low-voltage applications. The advantages of the...

  • Distributed OpenCL : a platform for distributed, heterogeneous computing for domain scientists

    Creator:
    Dillon, William H.
    Abstract:
    It is possible to purchase, for as little as $10,000, a cluster of computers with the capability to rival the supercomputers of only a few years ago. Now, users that have little to no experience developing distributed applications or managing a cluster are in a position to do so. To...

  • Power efficient H.264 video decoding in embedded multiprocessor

    Creator:
    Kim, Jihong
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents a novel methodology that enables power efficient video decoding in an embedded system based on MPSoC (Multiprocessor System on Chip). This methodology is a physical combination of parallel processing which reduces power consumption of processors by exploiting thread-level parallelism and Dynamic Voltage Frequency Scaling (DVFS) that allows...

  • Mental Models of Mere Mortals with Explanations of Reinforcement Learning

    Creator:
    Anderson, Andrew A.
    Abstract:
    How should reinforcement learning (RL) agents explain themselves to humans not trained in AI? To gain insights into this question, we conducted a 124 participant, four-treatment experiment to compare participants’ mental models of an RL agent in the context of a simple Real-Time Strategy (RTS) game. The four treatments isolated...

  • Nucleation Inhibiting Mechanisms in Atomic Layer Deposition of Nanolaminates

    Creator:
    Witsell, Shane Mike’ele Williama
    Abstract:
    Nucleation in atomic layer deposition (ALD) determines how many cycles are required to initiate growth and to form a continuous film. Nucleation has been exploited for the formation of nanoparticles, catalysts, and for area-selective ALD. Although sometimes overlooked or misrepresented in ALD reports, nucleation is also critical for multicomponent ALD...

  • Dynamic and Dual Streaming Methods for H.264 Video and Parallel Performance Modeling

    Creator:
    Johnson, Taylor N.
    Abstract:
    Traditional approaches to streaming H.264 video over a network typically rely on a single method of transport (i.e., reliable or unreliable) and/or use static values for parameters that can have a significant negative impact on the perceptual quality of the received video. This dissertation presents a dynamic method for wireless...

  • Flexible dual TCP/UDP streaming for H.264 HD video over WLANs

    Creator:
    Zhao, Jing
    Abstract:
    High Definition video streaming over WLANs faces many challenges because video data requires not only data integrity but also frames have strict playout deadline. Traditional streaming methods that rely solely on either UDP or TCP have difficulties meeting both requirements because UDP incurs packet loss while TCP incurs delay. This...

    Creator:
    Gatimu, Kevin
    Abstract:
    Mobile devices are becoming more prevalent and complex. As a result, the wireless communication aspect of these devices is becoming increasingly significant. At the same time, video demands in terms of availability and quality are also on the uprise. High definition (HD) video is the standard of choice for meeting...

  • Anomaly Detection and Probabilistic Diagnosis for Automated Data Quality Control

    Creator:
    Zemicheal, Tadesse H.
    Abstract:
    Advances in sensor technology are greatly expanding the range of quantities that can be measured while simultaneously reducing the cost. However, deployed sensors drift out of calibration and fail, so every sensor network requires quality control procedures to promptly detect these failures. To address these problems, we propose a two-level...
