  • Team Bella : reimagining character portrayals and engaging with social constructions of power in Twilight fanfiction

    Creator:
    Rost, Coral
    Abstract:
    Online fanfiction communities have received attention for providing spaces of creativity and individual empowerment. Yet as critics have sought to establish fanfiction as a worthy object of study, many have not grappled with the ways that fanfictions not only trouble, but also reinforce various discourses and ideas of gender and...

  • Some contributions to asymmetric error control codes

    Creator:
    Elmougy, Samir
    Abstract:
    In some practical systems, most of the errors are of 1 → 0 type and 0 → 1 errors occur very rarely. In this thesis, first, the capacity of the asymmetric channel is derived. The capacity of the binary symmetric channel (BSC) and the Z-channel can be derived from this...

  • Ultra sonic SCUBA diver tracking device hardware

    Creator:
    Lindsley, Christopher J.
    Abstract:
    Currently, there is no accurate, low-cost method to track divers. Watching bubbles can give you an approximate xy-location, and expensive underwater radios utilizing ultrasonic waves can work if the diver knows where they are. Traditional radio waves do not work well in water due to the conductive nature of water....

  • Deletions and Insertions of the Symbol 0 and Asymmetric/Unidirectional Error Control Codes for the L₁ Metric

    Creator:
    Alqwaifly, Nawaf
    Abstract:
    This work gives some theory and efficient design of binary block codes capable of controlling the deletions of the symbol “0” (referred to as 0-deletions) and/or the insertions of the symbol “0” (referred to as 0-insertions). This problem of controlling 0-deletions and/or 0-insertions (referred to as symmetric 0-errors) is shown...

  • Advanced time-varying approaches for modeling the multipath channel in wireless network

    Creator:
    Aljerme, Abdelkader A.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation proposes the use of advanced time-varying approaches for modeling the dynamics of the multipath channel in wireless communication networks. These advanced time-varying approaches include linear Kalman innovation models in observable block companion form, and neural network-based models. The e˙ectiveness of these type of models is evaluated through three...

  • Routerless Network-on-chip

    Creator:
    Alazemi, Fawaz
    Abstract:
    Traditional bus-based interconnects are simple and easy to implement, but the scalability is greatly limited. While router-based networks-on-chip (NoCs) offer superior scalability, they also incur significant power and area overhead due to complex router structures. In this thesis, a new class of on-chip networks, referred to as Routerless (RL) NoCs,...

  • Network coding for sensor networks, distributed storage and video streaming

    Creator:
    Nguyen, Kien Trung
    Abstract:
    The classical store-and-forward routing has and will continue to be the most important routing architecture in many modern packet-switched communication networks. In a packet-switched network, data is sent in the form of discrete packets that traverse hop-by-hop from a source to a destination. At each intermediate hop, the router stores...

  • Interconnection Networks Based on Gaussian and Eisenstein-Jacobi Integers

    Creator:
    Shamaei, Arash
    Abstract:
    Quotient rings of Gaussian and Eisenstein-Jacobi(EJ) integers can be deployed to construct interconnection networks with good topological properties. In this thesis, we propose deadlock-free deterministic and partially adaptive routing algo­rithms for hexagonal networks, one special class of EJ networks. Then we discuss higher dimensional Gaussian networks as an alternative to...

  • The dynamic speculation and performance prediction of parallel loops

    Creator:
    Zier, David A.
    Abstract:
    General purpose computer systems have seen increased performance potential through the parallel processing capabilities of multicore processors. Yet this potential performance can only be attained through parallel applications, thus forcing software developers to rethink how everyday applications are designed. The most readily form of Thread Level Parallelism (TLP) within any...

  • A grading tool for the Translators course

    Creator:
    Wang, Haiyan
    Abstract:
    This report addresses the design and implementation of an internet­-based grading tool for the "Translators" course. The motivation is to avoid exposing the instructor's Java byte-code to possible reverse­-engineering tools and enable students to submit their homework vir­tually from any machine across the internet. This tool is intended to replace...
