Algorithmic and architectural solutions for scheduling task graphs on multiprocessors
Scheduling is a critical challenge in the design of multicomputer systems, especially for minimizing execution time of parallel programs represented as task graphs. This thesis presents both algorithmic and architectural ... -
Construction of market index, efficient portfolios and a test for capital market efficiency
Individual investors in the capital market often wish to hold portfolios that "follow the market" but consist of only a small number of scrips. This study addresses the problem of designing a compact portfolio of scrips ... -
Design and performance study of a media access control protocol for wireless lans
Wireless local area networks are gaining importance for computer communications since they eliminate the problem of laying interconnecting LAN cables within and across buildings. One of the main issues in wireless LANs is ... -
Development of an automated high pressure high temperature system for electrical studies

Efficient algorithms for linearly constrained convex programming and some proximity problems
This thesis addresses the following problems: Linearly constrained convex programming problem in n constraints and d dimensions for a fixed d. Some proximity problems between two convex polyhedra A and B, each polyhedron ... -
Electrochemistry at complex interfacial geometries
A study of electrochemical response of interfaces, when one or more of the electrodes assume arbitrary or rough (random) geometries, is of utmost importance but is difficult to analyse. The importance arises from the fact ... -
Escape mechanism in bistable systems driven by strongly correlated noise
This thesis focuses on the analysis of nonlinear dynamical systems influenced by colored noise, which appears in diverse fields such as physics, chemistry, natural sciences, and engineering. The core problem involves solving ... -
Fredholm determinant and decay properties of eigenvalues of hilbert-schmidt integral operators
In this thesis, some properties of the eigenvalues of Hilbert-Schmidt integral operators (briefly H-S operators) are investigated. This thesis consists of three chapters. In the first two chapters, H-S operators of the ... -
Frictional-kinetic models for steady cohesionless granular flow through a wedge-shaped hopper
The present work attempts to combine a newly developed kinetic constitutive theory with an older frictional theory to model.the two-dimensional gravity flow of a cohesionless granular material such as sand through a ... -
Genetic algorithms: novel models and fitness -based adaptive disruption strategies
Genetic Algorithms are robust search and optimization methods that have emerged to be effective for a variety of real-world problems. They are stochastic, iterative techniques based on a population of evolving solutions, ... -
Heat and mass transfer studies in solid state fermentations
Solid-state fermentation (SSF) processes have long been employed in the production and preservation of a variety of foods, and in the production of enzymes, organic acids, antibiotics and other microbial products. They are ... -
Integer factorization algorithms
Integer Factorization is an old problem in Number Theory, which has long been regarded as a fundamentally difficult problem. Since 1970, there have been substantial advances in integer factorization. A number of algorithms ... -
Interaction of hydrogen isotopes with radiation effects in metals
The present work has highlighted the deuterium behaviour during implantation in Cu, Ti and Pd, particularly relating to its migration, trapping and deuteride formation. The technique of neutron?yield measurement during ... -
Low temperature study of electronic transport properties of certain highly resistive crystalline and quasicrystalline alloys
A Low Temperature Study of Electronic Transport Properties of Certain Highly Resistive Crystalline and Quasicrystalline Alloys Low temperature electronic transport in metals and alloys has been and continues to be a topic ... -
Magnetism and exchange in the layered transition metal thiophosphates and their solid solutions
It was mentioned in the Introductory Chapter that changes in the magnetic behaviour of the intercalation compounds of the transition metal thiophosphates depend crucially on the magnetism of the host lattice. Hence an ... -
Monitoring program dynamics : Evaluation of software profiler effectiveness
Program monitoring tools are often used to verify program correctness, study program performance, and identify performance bottlenecks. Program profilers are a class of program monitoring tools which aid in tuning the ...
