  • Fast algorithms and applications for multi-dimensional least-squares-based minimum variance spectral estimation

    Creator:
    Wei, Lin
    Abstract:
    The main contributions of this thesis are the development and application of four computationally efficient solutions for least-squares-based (LS-based) minimum variance spectral estimation (MVSE). They are: (1) fast computational solution for the 1-D covariance LS-based MVSE, (2) fast computational solution for the 1-D modified covariance LS-based MVSE, (3) fast computational...

  • Diffuse attenuation coefficient of downwelling irradiance: An evaluation of remote sensing methods.pdf

    Creator:
    Lee, Zhong-Ping, Darecki, Miroslaw, Carder, Kendall L., Davis, Curtiss O., Stramski, Dariusz, and Rhea, W. Joseph
    Abstract:
    The propagation of downwelling irradiance at wavelength l from surface to a depth (z) in the ocean is governed by the diffuse attenuation coefficient, K𝒹(λ). There are two standard methods for the derivation of K𝒹(λ) in remote sensing, which both are based on empirical relationships involving the blue-to-green ratio of...

  • Cost-Age-Time Data Organized Garbage Collection

    Creator:
    Lee, Dongjun
    Abstract:
    NAND flash based solid state drives (SSDs) require out-of-place updating due to the characteristics of flash memories. In addition, due to the mismatched granularity between read/write and erase operations, a cleaning policy involving garbage collection and wear leveling has to perform data migration incurring high overhead. Another challenge is that...

  • Offloading of I/O transactions in current CPU architectures

    Creator:
    Larsen, Steen K.
    Abstract:
    IO transactions within a computer system have evolved along with other system components (i.e., CPU, memory, video) from programmed IO (PIO). In current mainstream systems (spanning from HPC to mobile) the IO transactions are CPU-centric descriptor-based DMA transactions. The key benefit is that slower IO devices can DMA write system...

  • 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...

  • Dynamic and Dual Streaming Methods for H.264 Video and Parallel Performance Modeling

    Creator:
    Johnson, Taylor N.
    Abstract:
    Traditional approaches to streaming H.264 video over a network typically rely on a single method of transport (i.e., reliable or unreliable) and/or use static values for parameters that can have a significant negative impact on the perceptual quality of the received video. This dissertation presents a dynamic method for wireless...
