  • Optimal communications system design for array-based electric generation

    Creator:
    Orozco, Ricardo
    Abstract:
    The world's demand for energy is an ongoing challenge, which has yet to be overcome. The efforts to find clean energy alternatives to fossil fuels have been hampered by the lack of investment in technology and research. Among these clean energy alternatives are ocean waves and wind. Wind power is...

  • Architectures and algorithms for dynamic overlay networks

    Creator:
    Abdelwahab, Sherif
    Abstract:
    Most of today’s Internet of Things (IoT) applications assume that data will be moved offdevices into centralized cloud platforms. While existing IoT systems leverage cloud-based analytics for meaningful data reasoning, the assumption that data should always be moved off the devices is problematic. The amount of data to be moved...

  • Data acquisition techniques for next generation wireless sensor networks

    Creator:
    Ehsan, Samina
    Abstract:
    The meteoric rise and prevalent usage of wireless networking technologies for mobile communication applications have captured the attention of media and imagination of public in the recent decade. One such proliferation is experienced in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), where multimedia enabled elements are fused with integrated sensors to empower tightly...

  • Machine learning for computer architecture design and optimization

    Creator:
    Penney, Drew
    Abstract:
    Machine learning applied to computer architecture has rapidly transitioned from a theoretical novelty to being a driving force behind design, control, and simulation in practically all components. These machine-learning-based methodologies are further notable for their scalability to increasingly complex design challenges, which has allowed these methodologies to surpass the prior...

  • Machine Learning for Architectural Design Space Exploration and Resource Control

    Creator:
    Penney, Drew D.
    Abstract:
    Machine learning has enabled significant advancements in diverse fields, yet, with a few exceptions, has had limited impact on computer architecture. Recent work, however, has begun to explore broader application to design, optimization, and simulation. Notably, machine-learning-based strategies often surpass prior state-of-the-art analytical, heuristic, and human-expert approaches. This thesis first...

  • 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...

  • Inertial control of a beamforming antenna array for use in cellular phones

    Creator:
    Schmidt, Patrick (Patrick Lane)
    Abstract:
    This research explores the viability and effectiveness of using an inertial navigation system (INS) to control a beamforming array of microstrip patch antennas with the aim of reducing users' exposure to electromagnetic radiation. The system reduces radiated power directed toward a cellular phone user to below 10% of the total...

  • Multi-dimensional parametric estimation: two-dimensional sharpening by predictive bandwidth extrapolation and fast algorithms for three dimensional autoregressive estimation

    Creator:
    Liew, Ji Seok
    Abstract:
    Achieving sharpened (enhanced detail) features of a multi-dimensional data source using the linear prediction (LP) bandwidth extrapolation (BWE) technique in the transform domain is the main objective of this research. The evolution of sensor technology has provided acquisition scenarios in which the data format is inherently multi-dimensional, including hyperspectral imaging...
