  • Information Theoretical Analysis of Self-Similar Trees

    Creator:
    Chunikhina, Evgenia V.
    Abstract:
    Tree-like patterns are ubiquitous in nature. Botanical trees, river networks, and blood systems are the most well-known examples of complex hierarchical systems met in observations. Interestingly, many of such systems exhibit statistical self-similarity. There are two main types of self-similarity: Horton self-similarity and Tokunaga self-similarity. Although there is an increased...

  • Cluster partitioning approaches to parallel Monte Carlo simulation on multiprocessors

    Creator:
    Ranawake, Udaya A.
    Abstract:
    We consider the parallelization of Monte Carlo algorithms for analyzing numerical models of charge transport used in semiconductor device physics. Parallel algorithms for the standard k-space Monte Carlo simulation of a three band model of bulk GaAs on hypercube multicomputers are first presented. This Monte Carlo model includes scattering due...

  • Translating MATLAB scripts into SPMD-style parallel programs

    Creator:
    Seelam, Nagajagadeswar Reddy
    Abstract:
    In this report., we address the issues of translating MATLAB scripts into SPMD-style C programs. The resulting programs, when linked with our run-time library are suitable for execution on parallel computers. We describe the design of the compiler and improvements made to it in the current version. We also describe...

  • AOPS : an abstraction oriented programming system for literate programming

    Creator:
    Shum, Stephen M.
    Abstract:
    The practice of literate programming is not widespread because existing literate programming systems have some undesirable characteristics such as programming language and text processor dependence and lack of flexible tools for viewing and manipulation of the source file. This dissertation describes the literate programming system AOPS (Abstraction Oriented Programming System)...

  • Electra : integrating constraints, condition-based dispatching, and features exclusion into the multiparadigm language Leda

    Creator:
    Zamel, Nabil M.
    Abstract:
    Multiparadigm languages are languages that are designed to support more than one style of programming. Leda is a strongly-typed multiparadigm programming language that supports imperative, functional, object-oriented, and logic programming. The constraint programming paradigm is a declarative style of programming where the programmer is able to state relationships among some...

  • Coding Techniques for Achieving Efficient Wireless Sensor Networks

    Creator:
    Qassim, Yousef M.
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, we explored multiple coding techniques to reduce energy consumption, improve performance, and secure wireless sensor networks specifically and ad-hoc networks in general. With the introduction of Internet of Things (IoT) and 5G technologies, wireless sensor networks are quickly emerging as an important and key technology in the...

  • Meeting End-to-End Deadlines in Real-Time Networks Using Software Defined Networking (SDN)

    Creator:
    Almahdi, Rafid M.
    Abstract:
    Network flows in Real-Time (RT) systems need to meet stringent end-to-end deadlines in order for such systems to operate safely and reliably. Today, such systems use custom or domain specific network system designs to meet end-to-end deadlines and other constraints of real-time flows. In this work we explore the design...

  • A multiprocessor node for communication and control

    Creator:
    Atluri, Venkata Ram
    Abstract:
    This paper describes the design and implementation of "A multiprocessor node for communication and control" (MPCC). MPCC is a high speed, high performance local area network capable of performing real time control tasks. This is achieved by the concurrent operation of two 8051 microcontrollers, a dual port RAM and the...

    Gyu Han, Hong
    Abstract:
    The WEPP (Water Erosion Prediction Project) application computes soil loss and sediment yield from a field based on the data on crops, management practices, and operations. In order to make WEPP, which is a Windows-based application, easily accessible, Web WEPP (Web-based WEPP) was developed by our research group. Web WEPP...

  • A pipelined baseband digital predistortion architecture for RF amplifier linearization

    Creator:
    Xu, Xiangqing
    Abstract:
    This thesis describes the design of a baseband digital predistortion architecture for radio frequency (RF) amplifier linearization. Existing amplifier linearization techniques are first examined. The nonlinearity of an amplifier can be characterized as amplitude-to-amplitude distortion and amplitude-to-phase distortion. The distortion can be corrected by providing a predistorted driver signal (both...
