  • Design and implementation of configuration modules in a programmable hardware-assisted cache emulator (PHA$E)

    Creator:
    Chalainanont, Nirut
    Abstract:
    Memory hierarchy design is becoming more important as the speed gap be- tween processor and memory continues to grow. Investigations of memory perfor- mance have typically been conducted using trace-driven emulation, which could take tremendous resources (e.g. long emulation time, large storage requirements for traces, and high overall cost). Recent...

  • Hardware-Based Security Enhancement for Near Field Communication and Other Close Proximity Inductive-Based Communication Systems

    Creator:
    Kness, Philip J.
    Abstract:
    Several hardware-based security improvements to Near Field Communication (NFC) and Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) systems are developed and presented. The improvements are intended to be used in conjunction with software encryption to ensure robust security. Two main implementations for a more secure NFC or RFID system are presented: a jamming system,...

  • Efficient Deep Learning Methods for Biomedical Applications

    Creator:
    Thota, Narayana Bhagirath
    Abstract:
    Deep Learning methods have been gaining a lot of significance for various Biomedical applications for diagnosing several types of diseases. Two applications considered here are: 1) Diabetic Retinopathy Detection and 2) ECG signal Classification (or Arrhythmia Detection). Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a major cause of blindness in Diabetic patients, and...

  • COLAN V : a high performance local area network for control and communication utilizing a communication co-processor

    Creator:
    Kumar, Ravi C.
    Abstract:
    This paper describes the design and implementation of COLAN V, a High Performance Local Area Network for Communications and Control utilizing a Communications Coprocessor. The main objective of this thesis is to improve upon the performance of previous COLANs in speed, switching techniques and error detection techniques. This was possible...

  • Sliding Mode Control of Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converters

    Creator:
    Brown, Danielle R.
    Abstract:
    This thesis concerns the development of a direct torque control strategy using a sliding mode control approach to optimize the power output of an oscillating water column (OWC) wave energy converter (WEC). The OWC WEC is a device that has a submerged vertical tail tube open at both ends, which...

  • The doubly-excited generator and its utilization in a variable-speed generating system

    Creator:
    Agha-Mirsalim, Mojtaba
    Abstract:
    The doubly-excited machine can be used as a variablespeed generator or as a variable-speed-drive motor. In this thesis the focus is on the aspects associated with generating electric power (real and reactive) from erratic energy resources such as water or wind. In such cases, the power input to the prime...

  • Electrical and optical properties of semi-insulating and ion-implanted GaAs and InP

    Creator:
    Rhee, Jin Koo
    Abstract:
    The electrical and optical properties of semi-insulating, epitaxial and ion-implanted GaAs and InP have been characterized and analyzed. Electron and hole traps in semi-insulating GaAs and InP, with activation energies ΔE[subscript T] ranging from 0.16 ± 0.01 to 0.98 ± 0.01 eV, have been detected and characterized by Photo-Induced Current...

  • A Multiresolution Analysis of Temporal Logic

    Creator:
    Pelphrey, Richard E.
    Abstract:
    Is it possible to determine whether a signal violates a formula in Signal Temporal Logic (STL), if the monitor only has access to a low-resolution version of the signal? We answer this question affirmatively by demonstrating that temporal logic has a multiresolution structure, which parallels the multiresolution structure of signals....
