The design and development of the wearable health and activity monitor

Creator:: Glover, Neil E.
Abstract:: This work describes the development of an accurate, low-cost, expandable and wearable health and activity monitoring platform. Wearable monitors used to track physical activity are becoming an increasingly popular and effective way to combat our dangerously sedentary lifestyles. Unfortunately most existing wearable solutions are either costly, inaccurate or cumbersome. The...

Oxidative gelation and functionality of wheat flour : effects of grain storage, flour aging, and grain type (hard or soft)

Creator:: Mattson, Jacob E.
Abstract:: This study examined changes in flour functionality during storage of grain and subsequent aging of flour milled from the grain. Freshly harvested grain was stored for 24 weeks and flour milled from the grain at specified time intervals after harvest (0, 3, 6, 12, and 24 weeks). For each milling...

Design and FPGA implementation of digital transmission over severe ISI channels

Creator:: Zhao, Yichen
Abstract:: Inter-symbol interference is one of the major factors that make the realization of high-data-rate digital communications system complex. Current designs face two main challenges: how to efficiently utilize the available bandwidth and how to reduce the hardware complexity of the transmitter and receiver. Traditional solutions use a single-band architecture. When...

Essays on Public-Private Contracting

Creator:: Gultom, Yohanna M. L.
Abstract:: In this work, I address foundational concerns at the interface of institutions, governance structure, transaction costs, and efficiency in public-private contracting. Following transaction cost economic perspective, I build and justify the theoretical models explaining that institutions may affect the economic performance of public-private contracting through the effect of transaction costs....
