Physiological signals, electroencephalogram (EEG) and heart rate variability (HRV), are generated by complex self-regulating systems. These signals are extremely inhomogeneous and nonstationary, and fluctuate in an irregular ...

We investigate sequential event detection problems arising in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). A number of battery–powered sensor nodes of the same sensing modality are deployed in a region of interest(ROI). By an event ...

This thesis looks at hardware algorithms that help reduce dynamic power dissipation in video encoder applications. Computational complexity of motion estimation and the data traffic between external memory and the video ...

With the proliferation of industries world-wide, there is a growing need and interest in sensing and monitoring environmental pollutants and monitoring the concentration of chemicals/gases in industrial process control. ...

There is a compelling need to explore different material options as well as device structures to facilitate smooth transistor scaling for higher speed, higher density and lower power. The enormous potential of nanoelectronics, ...
