  • Hybrid-Meshnet, a local area mesh network with distributed control

    Creator:
    Kang, Cheoul Shin
    Abstract:
    Hybrid-Meshnet is a communication subnet architecture for local area networks (LANs) designed to achieve a high degree of network performance and flexibility. These objectives are achieved by utilizing a dual channel structure. A token ring is used for short or prioritized data transmissions. A complimentary mesh network with arbitrary data...

  • A programmable network interface unit for hybrid meshnet local area networks

    Creator:
    Merchant, Shashank C.
    Abstract:
    A Hybrid Meshnet LAN, a new local area network architecture, has been proposed by Dr. Cheoul-Shin Kang and Dr. James Herzog. It provides for distributed control hybrid architecture which is good for effective load sharing under various local area network environments. Hybrid Meshnet has a dual channel structure, a token...

  • A simple local area network, COLAN (Control Oriented Local Area Network)

    Creator:
    Zheng, Yuepeng
    Abstract:
    COLAN (Control Oriented Local Area Network ) is a redesign of the Task-Master, a daisy-chain structure distributed control system. COLAN is a simple bus structure communication subnetwork intended for distributed control applications. Low cost and simplicity are two main design criteria. Point-to-point and broadcast communications are possible. A packet switching...

  • EDLAN, an educational local area network

    Creator:
    Yu, Hua
    Abstract:
    EDLAN is a simple, inexpensive local area network suitable for educational applications. In EDLAN, a number of personal computers are connected through an RS-485 global bus which carries the data transmission among the computers. CSMA/CD protocol is used to control the access of the global bus. The communications are controlled...

  • COLAN III, a control-oriented LAN using CSMA/CD protocol

    Creator:
    Eum, Doo-hun
    Abstract:
    COLAN III is a control oriented LAN designed to achieve reasonable network performance and flexibility at low cost. These objectives are achieved by utilizing inexpensive microcontrollers (8031s) and hardware support. The CSMA/CD network protocol with single bus structure has been employed in COLAN III as an arbitration method to control...

  • Toward Automated Decision-Making in Power Systems Wide-Area Protection

    Creator:
    Meier, Richard John
    Abstract:
    In recent years there have been many improvements in the reliability of critical infrastructure systems. Despite these improvements and despite targeted efforts to improve the operation and control of the electric grid, the power systems industry has seen relatively small advances in this regard. For instance, today's power system is...

  • Wavelet analysis as a signal processing method for multiresolution signal decomposition in natural resources applications

    Creator:
    Tu, De Yun
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this thesis is to apply the wavelet transform WT to multiresolution structures for analyzing the information content of images based on multiresolution signal decomposition of the wavelet representation. The advantage of the wavelet transform is the fact that it uses different building blocks than the Fourier's sines...

  • An analysis of control area synchronization on the convergence of distributed state estimators

    Creator:
    Clarke, Blaise
    Abstract:
    This honors undergraduate thesis examines the process of simulating power system state estimation, the use of the alternating direction method of multipliers in the problem of distributed power system state estimation, and provides a rudimentary asynchronous implementation of the above for a linearized DC power system. The asynchronous implementation is...
