  • Network coding for multi-user wireless networks

    Creator:
    Nguyen, Dong Van
    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...

  • Functional analysis to inform early design decisions for novel systems with substantial operations and maintenance costs

    Creator:
    Algarra, Nathan
    Abstract:
    Long field-life systems are those for which operational, as opposed to capital, expenditures dominate the life time cost of the system. In established product categories, operational experience and historical maintenance data allows engineers to make informed decisions influencing maintenance during the early design stages when design changes are at their...

  • Multi-channel Stochastic Resource Allocation and Dynamic Access Scheduling

    Creator:
    Wang, Qiwei
    Abstract:
    Modern communication systems often have the ability to transmit signals on multiple communication mediums (e.g., RF, visible light) or interfaces (e.g., MAC layer protocols) at the same time. While each channel has different characteristics, a centralized controller with channel condition information will be able to schedule the resource allocated to...

  • Protocol design and optimization for wireless networks

    Creator:
    Lertsutthiwong, Monchai
    Abstract:
    We investigate a number of techniques for increasing throughput and quality of media applications over wireless networks. A typical media communication application such as video streaming imposes strict requirements on the delay and throughout of its packets, which unfortunately, cannot be guaranteed by the underlying wireless network due inherently to...

  • Design of Compact Passive Components and Circuits for RF and Millimeter-Wave Integrated Circuit in Silicon

    Creator:
    Dong, Xuanyi
    Abstract:
    Emerging fifth generation (5G) and beyond 5G communication networks are stimulating the design of radio-frequency (RF) and millimeter-wave (mmWave) integrated circuits for wireless transceivers systems. While co-integration of active circuits and diverse passive components becomes feasible at these high operating frequencies, circuit design is faced with significant challenges due to...

  • Throughput optimization for single-hop wireless networks using network coding

    Creator:
    Tran, Tuan Tho
    Abstract:
    Recent advances in wireless technologies have helped the proliferation of wireless devices, ranging from hand-held devices such as cellular phones to more powerful mobile computing platforms as such laptops [1]. Along with that, the end users’ applications running on these devices, ranging from text message to multimedia applications such as...

  • The Structural Characteristics of Robustness in Large-Scale Complex Engineered Systems

    Creator:
    Walsh, Hannah S.
    Abstract:
    Modern engineered systems are increasingly integrated into society, decentralized, and interconnected. However, scale and complexity create unique challenges in system design, such as emergent behavior and unintended consequences. This work investigates the structural characteristics of robustness in complex engineered systems by identifying patterns of under-recognized vulnerabilities at various levels of...

  • Achievement Unlocked : Increasing Social Justice Awareness in Middle School Students Through Board Games

    Creator:
    Nguyen-Van, Tiffany T.
    Abstract:
    “An undeniably vast portion of American history is attributed to people of color. But these stories of discoveries and researches, resilience and liberation all seemed like missing pieces to the puzzle that is America.” (Vo-Nguyen). This speaks to the experience of how the stories, lives, and contributions of their communities...

  • Relational Networks for Visual Relationship Detection in Images

    Creator:
    Nguyen, Khoi
    Abstract:
    This thesis is about visual relationship detection. This is an important task in computer vision. The goal is to detect all visual relationships in a given image between objects. This thesis presents a new approach to this problem. Our approach does not use an object detector as a common pre-processing...

  • Part-based and Uncertainty-Aware Few-shot Object Segmentation in Images

    Creator:
    Nguyen, Khoi D.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation addresses few-shot object segmentation in images. The goal of segmentation is to label every image pixel with a class of the object occupying that pixel, where the class may represent a semantic object category or instance. In few-shot segmentation, training and test datasets have different classes. Every new...
