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 ...

Biomedical optical imaging is capable of providing functional information of the soft bi-ological tissues, whose applications include imaging large tissues, such breastand brain in-vivo. Biomedical optical imaging uses ...

Video applications are becoming ubiquitous in recent times due to an explosion in the number of devices with video capture and display capabilities. Traditionally, video applications are implemented on a variety of devices ...

Diffuse optical tomography uses near infrared (NIR) light as the probing media to recover the distributions of tissue optical properties. It has a potential to become an adjunct imaging modality for breast and brain imaging, ...

New advances in computational modeling and instrumentation in the past decade has enabled the use of electromagnetic radiation for non-invasive monitoring of the physio-logical state of biological tissues. The near infrared ...

Diffuse optical tomography is a promising imaging modality that provides functional information of the soft biological tissues, with prime imaging applications including breast and brain tissue in-vivo. This modality uses ...

Exascale systems of the future are predicted to have mean time between node failures (MTBF) of less than one hour. At such low MTBF, the number of processors available for execution of a long running application can widely ...

In the last decade, a lot of machine learning and data mining based approaches have been used in the areas of intrusion detection, malware detection and classification and also traffic analysis. In the area of malware ...

CMOS technology scaling is bringing new challenges to the designers in the form of new failure modes. The challenges include long term reliability failures and particle strike induced random failures. Studies have shown ...

The effective use of GPUs for accelerating applications depends on a number of factors including effective asynchronous use of heterogeneous resources, reducing data transfer between CPU and GPU, increasing occupancy of ...
