Molecular determinants of self-assembly of the pore forming toxin Cytolysin A
Pore forming toxins (PFTs) belong to a class of bacterial exotoxins that disrupt the biological membrane barrier by formation of nanopores. These toxins are central to the virulence of pathogens such as S. pneumoniae, ... -
Multiplexing Nanoplasmonic Sensors
Complex biological samples such as serum contain thousands of proteins and other molecules spanning up to 13 orders of magnitude in concentration. Present measurement techniques such as protein microarrays and quantum dot ... -
Nanostructured Metal Oxide Semiconductor Gas Sensor
Gas sensors play a vital role in today’s world; be it in pollution monitoring, breath analysis, food quality monitoring or in agriculture. A variety of methods are being explored to develop reliable gas sensor systems such ... -
Normally off AlxGa(1-x)N/GaN devices: Materials, process and device architecture innovations
AlxGa(1-x)N/GaN HEMTs find applications in power electronics systems as high-frequency power switches. The formation of a highly mobile 2 dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at a heterointerface in an otherwise insulating wide ... -
A Novel Algorithm-Architecture Co-Designed System for Dynamic Execution-Driven Pre-Silicon Verification
In EDA industry, design-under-test (DUT) is a pre-silicon digital design which is still undergoing testing phase. We perform functional-verification of a DUT to verify whether the DUT conforms to the specifications. Functional ... -
Online Consumer Behaviour in Low Involvement Products: Cognitive Attributes and Purchase Behaviour
The internet has created fundamental shifts in business and consumer behaviour, akin to the industrial revolution of the 1800s. The internet serves as a ubiquitous and limitless information platform, and is leading to ... -
Optimization of Traversal Queries on Distributed Graph Stores
In this era of Big Data Analytics, much of the semi-structured data has inherent interconnectivity between representative entities. These are increasingly being modeled as property graphs because of the semantic advantages ... -
Parametric Manipulation in 2D Material based NEMS Resonators
In this this thesis, I have studied dynamics of the two-dimensional (2D) material based NEMS resonators with resonant frequency ranging typically from 10 MHz to 100 MHz. The experiment involved fabrication of the ... -
Predicting Innovation Capability at Team Level: An Exploratory Analysis
Innovation is one of the major concerns for technology-driven organizations. Extensive amount of literature is available on ‘managing innovation’ within organizations at individual level as well as firm level. However, ... -
Reconfigurable Accelerator for High Performance Application Kernels
Accelerating high performance computing (HPC) applications such as dense linear al- gebra solvers, mesh computations, stencil computations requires exploiting parallelism that is resident in loops. Typically these loops ... -
Reliable and Efficient Application Scheduling on Edge, Fog and Cloud
Cloud computing has emerged in the last decade as a popular distributed computing service offered by commercial providers. Public Clouds offer pay-as-you-go access to elastic resources that can be acquired and released ... -
Repeat Purchase Behaviour of Online Customers for Grocery Products
Anecdotal evidence, from industry reports, suggest that consumption patterns in India are increasingly moving away from functional needs to lifestyle considerations. However, there is not much empirical evidence regarding ... -
Resistive Switching and Electron Transport In Perovskite Oxide Thin Films
This work deals with the Resistive Switching (RS) properties of various perovskite oxides probed in a simple Metal - Insulator - Metal (M-I-M) configuration. The metals comprise of platinum which served as the bottom ... -
Revenue Management In Remanufacturing
The pace of development in the world has increased over the years and with it, the use of hitech gadgets, consumer durables, automobiles etc. has also gone up. In this context, as resources become more and more scarce, ... -
Stabilized finite element schemes for computations of viscoelastic free-surface and two-phase flows
Viscoelastic flows can be found in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications such as enhanced oil recovery, pesticide deposition, medicinal/pharmaceutical sprays, drug delivery, injection molding, polymer ... -
Structural, Magnetic and Electrical Studies of Multiferroic BiFeO3 and CuO Epitaxial Thin Films
The multiferroics are an important class of multifunctional material which simultaneously possess spontaneous ferroelectric polarization and magnetic ordering. If there exists a coupling between the ferroelectricity and ... -
Study of Composition & Performance of Global IT Project Teams : An Analysis of Cross-Sectional, Longitudinal & Exceptional Performances
Virtual project teams, with their members distributed across onshore-nearshore-offshore locations, have been primary units of delivery for Global IT industry. While the industry has increasingly evolved towards increased ... -
Towards Design and Development of Indigenous Rate-Grade MEMS Gyroscopes
Gyroscopes sense angular speed of the body on which they are mounted. Traditional mechanical gyroscopes are big, bulky, expensive, and hence limited to a few applications. With the advent of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems ... -
Towards Logic Circuit Applications Using Solution Processed CNTs
With Silicon transistor technology reaching its practical limits, e orts to replace Si with new materials with better electronic transport properties have gained considerable at- tention. Single-walled carbon nanotubes ... -
Transport in Interfacial Systems: Biosensor, Polymer, Colloid & Bacteria
Life forms as we know emerged due to unique mechanical and transport properties exhibited by Soft Materials at interface. For instance, the interior of a cell is separated from outside environment by lipid bilayer which ...
