  • Efficient arithmetic using self-timing

    Creator:
    Ramachandran, Ravichandran
    Abstract:
    The recent advances in VLSI technology have facilitated feature shrinking and hence a rapid increase in the levels of integration at the chip level. This increase in the level of integration has brought along with it a host of other constraints, the most crucial being timing management and increased power...

  • Exploring Protein Structure: Seeing the Forest and the Trees

    Creator:
    Brereton, Andrew E.
    Abstract:
    Life on Earth intimately depends on the function of countless proteins. For the majority of studied proteins, function absolutely depends on conformation (i.e. 3-dimensional shape in solution). The exact nature of how a protein goes from an unfolded linear polypeptide chain to an organized folded molecule is still not known,...

  • An Inductor-Less Multiple Input Single Output (MISO) Energy Harvester Achieving 74.6% Efficiency with Simultaneous MPPT

    Creator:
    Devaraj, Abhishekh
    Abstract:
    This work presents an inductor less switched capacitor based energy harvester, which can simultaneously harvest from 2 energy sources (Solar + Piezo). The proposed harvester employs 2D maximum power point tracking algorithm, by changing the conversion ratios of the charge pumps for piezo and solar sources, and 1D voltage regulation...

  • Opamp characterization techniques

    Creator:
    Ramamurthy, Karthik
    Abstract:
    Standard methodologies exist for testing and characterizing digital circuits but the same cannot be said of analog circuits. Though much theoretical work has been done to model the linear and nonlinear aspects of analog circuits, a firm practical background for the design of testable analog cells has yet to be...

  • Wind-current Interactions of the Sri Lanka Dome and Tropical Indian Ocean

    Creator:
    Cullen, Kerstin
    Abstract:
    The southwest monsoon, which may be idealized as the northward movement of the intertropical convergence zone in the Indian Ocean associated with differential heating of land and ocean, brings a seasonal reversal of currents and winds in the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea. Atmospheric convection from monsoon activity...

  • An Anthology of Next-Generation WSNs and Transformative IoT Use-Cases

    Creator:
    Williams, Jennifer M.
    Abstract:
    The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm brought an ever-increasing dependence on low-power devices to collect sensor data and transmit that information to the cloud, placing greater demand on connectivity and lifespan. In response, rapid worldwide innovation demonstrates the trade-offs in processing, communication, and energy consumption with diverse approaches to low-power...
