Variants and Generalization of Some Classical Problems in Combinatorial Geometry
(2018-02-18)In this thesis we consider extensions and generalizations of some classical problems in Combinatorial Geometry. Our work is an offshoot of four classical problems in Combinatorial Geometry. A fundamental assumption in these ... -
Designing Energy-Aware Optimization Techniques through Program Behaviour Analysis
(2018-02-18)Green computing techniques aim to reduce the power foot print of modern embedded devices with particular emphasis on processors, the power hot-spots of these devices. In this thesis we propose compiler-driven and profile-driven ... -
Resource Allocation in Wireless Networks for Secure Transmission and Utility Maximization
(2018-02-16)Resource allocation in wireless networks is one of the most studied class of problems. Generally, these problems are formulated as utility maximization problems under relevant constraints. The challenges posed by these ... -
Hitting Geometric Range Spaces using a Few Points
(2018-02-15)A range space (P, S) consists of a set P of n elements and a collection S = {S1,...,Sm} of subsets of P , referred to as ranges. A hitting set for this range space refers to a subset H of P such that every Si in S contains ... -
Influence Dynamics on Social Networks
(2018-02-15)With online social networks such as Facebook and Twitter becoming globally popular, there is renewed interest in understanding the structural and dynamical properties of social networks. In this thesis we study several ... -
Effective Automatic Computation Placement and Data Allocation for Parallelization of Regular Programs
(2018-02-15)Scientific applications that operate on large data sets require huge amount of computation power and memory. These applications are typically run on High Performance Computing (HPC) systems that consist of multiple compute ... -
Delay Minimization of an M/M/1 Point-to-Point Link Model Subject to Throughput and Power Constraints
(2018-02-15)In this thesis, we address the problem of minimizing the average delay of data pack-ets served by a transmitter on a static, point-to-point link. The transmitter dynamically chooses state-dependent admission and transmission ... -
Computational Models of Perceptual Space : From Simple Features to Complex Shapes
(2018-02-15)Dissimilarity plays a very important role in object recognition. But, finding perceptual dissimilarity between objects is non-trivial as it is not equivalent to the pixel dissimilarity between the objects (For example, two ... -
Towards a Unified Framework for Design of MEMS based VLSI Systems
(2018-02-12)Current day VLSI systems have started seeing increasing percentages of multiple energy domain components being integrated into the mainstream. Energy domains such as mechanical, optical, fluidic etc. have become all pervasive ... -
Spatially Correlated Data Accuracy Estimation Models in Wireless Sensor Networks
(2018-02-10)One of the major applications of wireless sensor networks is to sense accurate and reliable data from the physical environment with or without a priori knowledge of data statistics. To extract accurate data from the physical ... -
Frequency and Time Domain Response Analysis of Transformer Winding for Indirect Measurement of Series Capacitance and Construction of Ladder Network Models
(2018-02-10)This thesis proposes innovative methods to extract information embedded in the frequency and time domain response of the transformer winding, and utilizes them to suggest solutions to a few tasks that have until now been ... -
Intelligent Techniques for Monitoring of Integrated Power Systems
(2018-02-10)Continued increase in system load leading to a reduction in operating margins, as well as the tendency to move towards a deregulated grid with renewable energy sources has increased the vulnerability of the grid to blackouts. ... -
Stable Galerkin Finite Element Formulation for the Simulation of Electromagnetic Flowmeter
(2018-02-07)Electromagnetic flow meters are simple, rugged, non-invasive flow measuring instruments, which are extensively employed in many applications. In particular, they are ideally suited for the flow rate measurement of liquid ... -
