  • A multiscale approach to bacterial adhesion

    Creator:
    Ostvar, Sassan
    Abstract:
    This work is an attempt to develop a simple physical description for the initial interactions between a bacterial cell and a substrate surface. This is done by adopting a view that regards bacterial surface biomolecules not as secondary and add-on contributors to the potential energy function that characterizes the overall...

  • TIMR : Time Interleaved Multi Rail

    Creator:
    Ruggeri, Thomas L.
    Abstract:
    This work presents a new energy saving technique for modern digital designs. We propose Time Interleaved Multi-Rail (TIMR) - a method for providing two dynamic supply rails to a circuit. This technique uses the first supply rail to mask the transition delay while changing the voltage of the second rail....

  • Compressive Sensing for Low Power Sensor Design

    Creator:
    Behravan, Vahid
    Abstract:
    Recent sensor System-on-Chips (SoC) have enabled significant advances in energy-efficiency by incorporating various micro-powered building blocks. Unfortunately, most of these sensor systems do not address the high power cost associated with data storage and transmission, which in some cases vastly exceeds the power consumed by the rest of the SoC....

  • Cooperation and conflict in Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum sensing

    Creator:
    Wilder, Cara N.
    Abstract:
    Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an environmental bacterium as well as an opportunistic pathogen that primarily infects immunocompromised individuals, including those suffering from cystic fibrosis. The density-dependent regulation of gene expression via cell-to-cell communication, also termed quorum sensing (QS), is an important virulence determinant in this organism. Generally, P. aeruginosa uses three...

  • Measurement and analysis of soft error vulnerability of low-voltage logic and memory circuits

    Creator:
    Pawlowski, Robert
    Abstract:
    Scaling the supply voltage into the sub/near-threshold domain is one of the most effective methods for improving the energy efficiency of next-generation electronic microsystems. Unfortunately, the relationship between low-voltage operation and radiation-induced soft error rate is not widely known, as little research has been previously performed and reported for soft-error...

  • Precursor Chemistry and Film Structure and Properties via Solution Deposition

    Creator:
    Huang, Yu
    Abstract:
    Chemistry of preparing dense film from solution deposition is explored with several cases in this thesis. Surface dense structure, conversion at melting point, and ion exchange in aqueous solution are the main topics covered here for the thin films of aluminum oxide phosphate and tin dioxide. Thin film density, optical...

  • A comparative study of fish coloration and toxicant responses in a chromatophore cell-based biosensor

    Creator:
    Roach, Holly B.
    Abstract:
    Detection of both biological and chemical environmental toxicants is essential in the assessment of risk to human health. Cell-based biosensors are capable of activity- based detection of toxicity. Chromatophore cells, responsible for the pigmentation of poikilothermic animal, have shown immense potential as cell-based biosensors in the detection of a broad...

  • Methods to improve the reliability and resiliency of near/sub-threshold digital circuits

    Creator:
    Crop, Joseph A.
    Abstract:
    Energy consumption is one of the primary bottlenecks to both large and small scale modern compute platforms. Reducing the operating voltage of digital circuits to voltages where the supply voltage is near or below the threshold of the transistors has recently gained attention as a method to reduce the energy...
