Assessing protein contribution to phenotypic change using short, coarse grained molecular dynamics simulations
Understanding the functional mapping between genotype and phenotype is an important problem that has ramifications for various diseases. Various existing computational methods can infer these disease-related functional ... -
An Assessment Of Nanoscience And Nanotechnology (NST) Initiatives In India
(2013-06-12)Technology is the ‘engine of economic growth’ and technological progress is the most important factor driving a nation’s sustained economic growth. New technologies assume significant and long term role in this process of ... -
Assessment of University Technology Transfer Efficiency in the Context of Medical Device Technologies
(2018-07-18)Data to understand the inventiveness and technology transfer process for medical devices in India is lacking and majority of medical devices are imported. The presence of a medical school in a university system is expected ... -
Augmenting Hyperspectral Image Unmixing Models Using Spatial Correlation, Spectral Variability, And Sparsity
Hyperspectral imaging sensors sample sunlight reflected from different targets on Earth's surface by utilising a series of contiguous narrow spectral channels. The higher spectral resolution of hyperspectral images (HSIs) ... -
Automated Selection of Hyper-Parameters in Diffuse Optical Tomographic Image Reconstruction
(2018-03-16)Diffuse optical tomography is a promising imaging modality that provides functional information of the soft biological tissues, with prime imaging applications including breast and brain tissue in-vivo. This modality uses ... -
Automatic Compilation Of MATLAB Programs For Synergistic Execution On Heterogeneous Processors
(2014-05-19)MATLAB is an array language, initially popular for rapid prototyping, but is now being in-creasingly used to develop production code for numerical and scientific applications. Typical MATLAB programs have abundant data ... -
Availability, Allocation and Sharing of Water in a River Basin
(2018-06-18)The economic growth and the increase in population has led to an increased demand for water for various purposes such as domestic consumption, irrigation, industrial use, power generation, navigation, recreation, and ... -
Bacterial cellular heterogeneity in inducible gene expression and drug susceptibility
Biological processes are inherently noisy, and such stochasticity can result in significant cell to cell variability in isogenic bacterial populations. Functionally, cellular heterogeneity can have significant impact on ... -
Balancing Money and Time for OLAP Queries on Cloud Databases
(2017-12-16)Enterprise Database Management Systems (DBMSs) have to contend with resource-intensive and time-varying workloads, making them well-suited candidates for migration to cloud plat-forms { specifically, they can dynamically ... -
Band-matched transport layers and intrinsically stable perovskite solar cells for application to perovskite Si tandem cells
Hybrid perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells offer low-cost alternatives to the commercially established silicon solar cells. In this thesis, we present the material and device optimizations of the subcells that can be ... -
Batch Processsor Scheduling - A Class Of Problems In Steel Casting Foundries
(2010-09-15)Modern manufacturing systems need new types of scheduling methods. While traditional scheduling methods are primarily concerned with sequencing of jobs, modern manufacturing environments provide the additional possibility ... -
Bayesian Accelerated Life Testing of Series Systems
(2018-01-18)Consider life testing of J-component series systems that are subjected to stress levels that are steeper than that at normal usage condition. The objective of performing such life tests, commonly known as Accelerated Life ... -
Benchmarking and Modelling the Sustainability of Urban Mobility System : A Case Study of Bangalore City, India
Indian cities have dealt with the problem arising from the discordance between urbanization due to rapidly growing economies and the demand for increasing mobility services and infrastructure. However, they have failed to ... -
Benchmarking and Modelling the Sustainability Transition of National Electricity System : A Case Study of India
(2018-02-28)We have dealt with the problem arising from the incongruity between the evolution of the electricity system for meeting the objectives of economic growth, and the human/societal requirements of inclusive and affordable ... -
Benchmarking and Scheduling Strategies for Distributed Stream Processing
(2018-08-20)The velocity dimension of Big Data refers to the need to rapidly process data that arrives continuously as streams of messages or events. Distributed Stream Processing Systems (DSPS) refer to distributed programming and ... -
