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 ... -
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, ... -
Efficient and Resilient Stream Processing in Distributed Shared Environment
Internet of Things (IoT) deployments comprising of sensors and actuators collect observational data and provide continuous streams of data, often called streaming data or fast data. Smart Cities use such IoT technologies ... -
Internal resonances and nonlinearities in atomically thin resonators
The advent of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and atomically thin membranes such as Graphene and layered transition metal chalcogenides (TMDs) have spurred research in the area of Nanoelectromechanical Systems (NEMS) due to their ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Graphene and Graphyne based three dimensional porous architectures
The main objective of the thesis is to introduce porous structure into graphene/graphene oxide materials and study their effects on various physics/chemistry related applications. Introduction of porosity may be achieved ... -
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 ... -
Characterizing Patenting in an Indian University System: A Case Study
University patenting reflects on the strength of a nation’s innovation in basic research and ability to seed innovation in industry. Despite the growing support from the government for public funded universities to patent ... -
Silicon photodetector integrated silicon nitride-on-SOI platform for communication and sensor applications
Driven by the exponential growth of data tra c, current infrastructure and standards are evolved to meeting the requirements. In long haul communication, 1550/1310 nm based singlemode ber technology is a commercially ... -
Insights into signalling and crosstalk in two-component signalling systems of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by the pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), has very recently reclaimed the position of the leading cause of deaths in humans from a single infection agent. This suggests a dire need to ... -
Effect of Single Residue Change on Conformational Dynamics of Proteins and Their Function: A Molecular Dynamics Study
Proteins undergo conformational transitions and exhibit specific motion while performing their function. A single residue change (addition, deletion, or substitution) can sometimes influence the protein dynamics and disrupt ... -
The Effectiveness of Technology Business Incubation: An Empirical Analysis in the Indian Context
Entrepreneurship is key to drive innovation, create wealth and jobs in any economy. Entrepreneurial startups hold the promise of high growth, yet they encounter high failure rates due to uncertainties, particularly in ... -
Understanding spontaneous emission in the strong coupling regime of an emitter and absorbing matter
This thesis proposes a partition of optical states into radiative and non-radiative parts when an emitter is proximal to resonant absorbing nanostructures. The conventional partition is valid only for the weak coupling ... -
Industry 4.0 Maturity and Readiness Assessment: A case of a Manufacturing Organization
The manufacturing sector is the economic backbone of a country and has traditionally played a key role in the growth of almost every country in the world. In India, the manufacturing sector contributes 17 percent to the ... -
Network models uncover key molecular perturbations in complex human diseases
Biological systems are complex networks of molecular components that function in a tightly controlled manner. Any form of perturbation in these components or their associated interactions affects the normal physiology of ... -
Enhancing Blockchain Implementations
Blockchain technology elegantly provides a spectrum of desirable semantic properties, including immutability, authenticity, verifiability, and data integrity. In recent years, implementing blockchains on relational database ... -
