  • Time and statistical information utilization in high efficiency sub-micron CMOS successive approximation analog to digital converters

    Creator:
    Guerber, Jon
    Abstract:
    In an industrial and consumer electronic marketplace that is increasingly demanding greater real-world interactivity in portable and distributed devices, analog to digital converter efficiency and performance is being carefully examined. The successive approximation (SAR) analog to digital converter (ADC) architecture has become popular for its high efficiency at mid-speed and...

  • FoXQ : a visual query language for XML

    Creator:
    Abraham, Robin
    Abstract:
    XML is a very versatile data format that has been used to represent many different kinds of data, including web pages, books, business and accounting data, programming interfaces, vector graphics, system logs, and games. In a short span of time, it has gained wide acceptance as the document and data...

  • End-user software engineering in the spreadsheet paradigm

    Creator:
    Abraham, Robin
    Abstract:
    Spreadsheets are among the most widely used end-user programming systems. Unfortunately, there is a high incidence of errors in end-user spreadsheets, and some of these errors have high impact. In this dissertation, we describe techniques we have developed to help end users develop safer spreadsheets. As part of our research,...

  • Counterfactual States for Atari Agents via Generative Deep Learning

    Creator:
    Olson, Matthew L.
    Abstract:
    Although deep reinforcement learning agents have produced impressive results in many domains, their decision making is difficult to explain to humans. To address this problem, past work has mainly focused on explaining why an action was chosen in a given state. A different type of explanation that is useful is...

  • Energy and area efficient techniques for data converters

    Creator:
    Venkatram, Hariprasath
    Abstract:
    Data converters are ubiquitous building blocks of a signal chain. The rapid increase in communication and connectivity devices presents new avenues for pushing the state of the art analog to digital converters. Techniques for improving resolution, bandwidth, linearity and bit-error rate, while reducing the power, energy and area is the...

  • Continuous time input pipeline ADCs

    Creator:
    Gubbins, David Patrick
    Abstract:
    Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) convert analog continuous time signals into discrete time, digital format. One precondition that must be met for conventional nyquist rate ADCs is that the input signal must be suitably band-limited to an input bandwidth less than the nyquist frequency. This mandates expensive anti-alias filters which contribute to...

  • Interactive football playbook

    Creator:
    Neumann, Christoph
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents a domain specific visual language designed to allow coaches to create content that exhibits the complex 2D interactions observed in the game of American football. Coaches can visually program the content by using symbols and drawing primitives similar to those that they currently use to design static...

  • Power efficient analog-to-digital converters using both voltage and time domain information

    Creator:
    Oh, Taehwan
    Abstract:
    As advanced wired and wireless communication systems attempt to achieve higher performance, the demand for high resolution and wide signal bandwidth in their associated ADCs is strongly increased. Recently, time-domain quantization has drawn attention from its scalability in deep submicron CMOS processes. Furthermore, there are several interesting aspects of time-domain...

  • High efficiency wideband low-power delta-sigma modulators

    Creator:
    Lee, Sang Hyeon
    Abstract:
    Delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters traditionally have been used for low speed, high resolution applications such as measurements, sensors, voice and audio systems. Through continued device scaling in CMOS technology and architectural and circuit level design innovations, they have even become popular for wideband, high dynamic range applications such as wired and...

  • Low power design techniques for analog-to-digital converters in submicron CMOS

    Creator:
    Musah, Tawfiq
    Abstract:
    Advances in process technologies have led to the development of low-power high speed digital signal processing blocks that occupy small areas. These advances are critical in the development of portable electronic devices with small feature size and long battery life. However, the design of analog and mixed-signal building blocks, especially...
