High-rate MSR Codes, Interior-point Regenerating Codes, and Codes with Hierarchical Locality
Given the breath-taking pace at which the amount of data being generated on a daily basis is growing, and the keen desire to extract information from this data, there is strong interest within the storage industry, at ... -
Integrated Optic Microring Resonator based Sub-μN force and Force and Acceleration Sensors
Microring resonators have rapidly emerged in the past few years as a new sensing platform for miniaturization of modern integrated optical devices. Ring resonator are having advantages of compactness, stability with ... -
Joint Spectro-Temporal Analysis of Moving Acoustic Sources
Signals generated by fast moving acoustic sources are both challenging for analysis as well as rich in information. The motion is conceptually relative between the source and receiver i.e., either one of them is moving or ... -
Lattice Codes for Secure Communication and Secret Key Generation
(2018-05-22)In this work, we study two problems in information-theoretic security. Firstly, we study a wireless network where two nodes want to securely exchange messages via an honest-but-curious bidirectional relay. There is no ... -
Machine Learning Algorithms Using Classical And Quantum Photonics
ABSTRACT In the modern day , we are witnessing two complementary trends, exponential growth in data and shrinking of chip size. The Data is approaching to 44 zettabytes by 2020 and the chips are now available with 10nm ... -
Modeling, Performance Analysis and Design of Wireless Networks for Embedded Sensing Applications
The general theme of this thesis is modeling, performance analysis, and design of wireless networks under standardized CSMA/CA MAC protocols. In particular, we consider two widely used MAC protocols, namely, IEEE 802.15.4, ... -
On Codes for Private Information Retrieval and Ceph Implementation of a High-Rate Regenerating Code
