  • 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...

  • Learning hierarchical decomposition rules for planning : an inductive logic programming approach

    Creator:
    Reddy, Chandrasekhara K.
    Abstract:
    Artificial Intelligence (AI) planning techniques have been central to automating a gamut of tasks from the mundane route planning and beer production to the ethereal image processing of space-ship images. Of all the planning techniques, hierarchical- decomposition planning has been the technique most employed in industrial-strength planners. Hierarchical-decomposition planning is...

  • LacEDAemon : a programming environment for the multiparadigm language leda

    Creator:
    Pandey, Rajeev K.
    Abstract:
    Multiparadigm programming languages are a recent development in the realm of programming languages. A multiparadigm programming language allows the use of multiple, differing programming paradigms without departing from a single, unified linguistic framework. Multiparadigm programming languages are claimed to have benefits to both pedagogy and complex application creation. The beneficial...

  • Scheduling system of affine recurrence equations by means of piecewise affine timing functions

    Creator:
    Mui, Lap K.
    Abstract:
    Many systematic methods exist for mapping algorithms to processor arrays. The algorithm is usually specified as a set of recurrence equations, and the processor arrays are synthesized by finding timing and allocation functions which transform index points in the recurrences into points in a space-time domain. The problem of scheduling...

  • Design and implementation of Surface Irrigation Soil Loss (SISL) and Soil Condition Index (SCI), (SISL-SCI) database

    Creator:
    Nkansah, Alexander K.
    Abstract:
    The Soil Conditioning Index (SCI) aids the conservationist in designing crop rotations and residue management practices when low organic matter, poor soil tilt, and crusting problems are identified. The Natural Resources and Conservation Services (NRCS) field staff and others use the SCI as a qualitative tool during conservation planning. In...

  • Offloading of I/O transactions in current CPU architectures

    Creator:
    Larsen, Steen K.
    Abstract:
    IO transactions within a computer system have evolved along with other system components (i.e., CPU, memory, video) from programmed IO (PIO). In current mainstream systems (spanning from HPC to mobile) the IO transactions are CPU-centric descriptor-based DMA transactions. The key benefit is that slower IO devices can DMA write system...

  • 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...

    Creator:
    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...

  • 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...

    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...
