This thesis is concerned with studies on the conversion of syngas to liquid hydrocarbons. A major part of the effort is aimed at synthesising the catalyst and use of it in a speci cally designed high pressure-high ...

Many high performance computing applications in computational fluid dynamics, electromagnetics etc. need to solve a linear system of equations $Ax=b$. For linear systems where $A$ is generally large and sparse, Krylov ...

Energy forms a vital input and critical infrastructure for the economic development of countries and for improving the quality of life of people. Energy is utilized in society through the operation of large socio-technical ...

Coarse-Grained Reconfigurable Architectures(CGRAs) can be employed for accelerating computational workloads that demand both flexibility and performance. CGRAs comprise a set of computation elements interconnected using a ...

As you read this sentence, your brain just performed a miraculous task of converting collections of letter shapes into meaning. Reading is a cultural invention that is thought to exploit the intrinsic recognition abilities ...

Data-flow analysis is an integral part of any aggressive optimizing compiler. We propose a framework for improving the precision of data-flow analysis in the presence of complex control-flow. We initially perform data-flow ...

In this thesis we present a computational study of “ion crystals”, the interesting patterns in which ions arrange themselves in ion traps such as Paul and Penning traps. In ion crystals the ions are in equilibrium due to ...

Organizations have realized that they need to develop and strategically utilize their patent portfolios in order to maintain sustainable competitive advantage. This requires a change in the organization design and practice. ...

Power systems are undergoing rapid transitions to incorporate renewable sources of generation and to combat climate change. It is expected that the next stage of transitions will lead to a shift from large-scale, centralized ...
