  • Improving the Karatsuba-Ofman multiplication algorithm for special applications

    Creator:
    Erdem, Serdar S.
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, we study the Karatsuba-Ofman Algorithm (KOA), which is a recursive multi-precision multiplication method, and improve it for certain special applications. This thesis is in two parts. In the first part, we derive an efficient algorithm from the KOA to multiply the operands having a precision of 2[superscript...

  • Designing a high level microprogramming language

    Creator:
    Malik, Kamran
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this research is to design a high level language (HLL) suitable for microprogramming. A top down design technique has been adopted which makes the language design process simple and accurate. The primitive operations of a high level language for producing emulators is shown to include special purpose...

  • Adaptive load balancing metric for WLANs

    Creator:
    Ryou, Jong bum
    Abstract:
    As the number of mobile devices accessing large-scale WLANs such as campus and metropolitan area networks increases, the need for load balancing among the cells becomes crucial. In addition, the network must also support some minimum handoff tolerance defined by an application. A number of load balancing techniques have been...

  • Bilinear stochastic processes and time series

    Creator:
    Tang, Zhigiang
    Abstract:
    In engineering, biology, ecology, medicine, economics and social science, some processes are essentially bilinear, and some could be approximated accurately by bilinear processes under certain conditions. In this thesis the bilinear stochastic process and bilinear time series are discussed. Bilinear models essentially are nonlinear; the superposition rule is not valid....

  • Fabrication and characterization of ACTFEL devices

    Creator:
    Keir, Paul D.
    Abstract:
    The goal of this thesis is the identification and synthesis of high-luminance, primary color alternating-current thin-film electroluminescent (ACTFEL) devices. Special attention is paid to the synthesis of primary color green ACTFEL devices because of the lack of an adequate primary green ACTFEL phosphor and the dominance of green wavelengths in...

  • Bilinear control processes with application to immunology

    Creator:
    Hsu, Chin-Shung
    Abstract:
    As a significant class of nonlinear systems, bilinear systems (BLS) are extensively developed in the past years. In addition to their advantages over linear systems which are often not adequate to represent accurately many control processes, the BLS are particularly appealing in modeling biological systems in which parametric controls are...

  • Fast algorithms and applications for multi-dimensional least-squares-based minimum variance spectral estimation

    Creator:
    Wei, Lin
    Abstract:
    The main contributions of this thesis are the development and application of four computationally efficient solutions for least-squares-based (LS-based) minimum variance spectral estimation (MVSE). They are: (1) fast computational solution for the 1-D covariance LS-based MVSE, (2) fast computational solution for the 1-D modified covariance LS-based MVSE, (3) fast computational...

  • Position estimation in indoor localization with trilateration

    Creator:
    Su, Zhenqiang
    Abstract:
    Triangulateration uses geometric distance to estimate the location of user by employing techniques like received signal strength (RSS), time-of-arrival (TOA), time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA) and image processing. Radio frequency (RF) signal positioning using TOA or TDOA techniques generally requires timing synchronization of the anchors and/or the anchors and targets. If the desired...

  • Learning algorithms for adapting the compliance of robotic limbs

    Creator:
    Aboufazeli, Mahtab
    Abstract:
    Motivation: Many robots such as legged robots and prosthetic hands/arms are designed to interact with uncertain and time-varying environments to accomplish their tasks. Observations on humans and animals during their daily tasks suggest that they adapt their leg compliance while traversing with different velocities on different grounds and adjust their...

    Abstract:
    Until a few years ago, wireless-capable laptops were considered novelties by many. It is now hard to find a laptop or a hand-held computing device that is not wireless-ready. As wireless devices are becoming commodities, they have also become an indispensable part of the modern society. Not surprisingly, research in...
