Implementing a weak form of memory consistency on a tree-based system
In this thesis, we propose and implement a weak form of memory consistency, called the Release Consistency for the Tree structure (RCT) model. This model exploits the properties of a tree network to yield a programming ... -
Feature transformation for speaker identification
The gradual automation of services and transactions that previously required human handling has led to a growing interest in biometrics, which are unique measurable traits of a human being used for automatic identity ... -
Pattern recognition techniques based on self-Organization and learning vector Quantization
Autom atic Recognition of Patterns (APR) by a machine is perhaps the most challenging problem in Artificial Intelligence. The leitmotiv for the design of such a machine comes from the human visual system which is endowed ... -
Codes over galois rings closed under certain monomials
The use of error-control coding in information transmission systems and data storage systems is increasing rapidly. The primary aim of coding theorists has been to find “good codes” with “reasonably simple” decoding methods. ... -
Protocols for Highly available distributed call processing systems
In telecom applications, a key requirement of any call processing system is high availability; an order of “five nines” availability is needed. With the evolution of Next Generation Networks (NGN), the current trend in the ... -
Machine recognition of printed odiya text
Automatic recognition of characters by a machine is one of the challenging problems in Artificial Intelligence. The motivation for the design of such a machine comes from the human visual system (HVS). HVS is endowed with ... -
Design and implementation of a fortran to occam parallelizing parallel translator
Dependence analysis, which is the most critical component of PPT, has been described in this chapter. In order to establish dependence relations between multiple occurrences of different types of variables such as ... -
Design, Synthesis and Binding of Hydrogen Bond Surrogate (HBS) stabilized Helicomimics with Biorelevant DNA Transcription Factor Domains and Proteins
Although all cells share the same genome, their diverse functions arise from differential gene expression, which governs cell fate and activity. Dysregulation of this transcriptional machinery leads to diseases, highlighting ... -
Design & Synthesis of Scalable Analog Computing Systems
This thesis explores the potential of analog computing to meet the growing computational demands of power-intensive applications and evolving algorithms. While analog computation offers significant advantages in power ... -
Strain Controlled Low Cycle Fatigue and Creep-fatigue interaction behaviour of A type 316(L) Stainless Steel
Type 316L(N) stainless steel (SS) is the currently favored structural material for several high temperature components in the primary side of the liquid metal cooled fast breeder reactor. The choice of this material is ... -
On Fluidic Plasmonics: Harnessing Liquid Metals for Tunable Nanophotonics
Low melting point metals, in particular, Ga and its alloys, have been used in electronics applications extensively, while their photonic applications in the visible region (2-3eV photon energy) of the electromagnetic ... -
On the Development of Repetition-Rate Scalable Multidimensional Spectroscopy
Pump-probe (PP) spectroscopy is a powerful and now routine time-resolved spectroscopic technique that routinely probes the non-equilibrium electronic and nuclear motions with sub-10 fs temporal resolution. PP spectroscopy ... -
Time Domain Cascading Analysis Framework with Integrated Substation Configurations and Protection Systems
Blackouts represent the most severe consequence of cascading outages, where a significant portion of the power system loses service, often within a short time frame. These large-scale outages can result from an uncontrolled ... -
Elucidation of fluid dynamics of bacterial movements and transport processes in natural body fluids and its relation to pathogenesis
The transmission mechanism of respiratory diseases includes routes such as direct or indirect contact, large droplets, and airborne transmission, apart from close contact transmission, which is complex. However, the ... -
Dipole Cosmology: Revisiting Our Universe with a Flow
In this thesis, we explore an ansatz alternative to the FLRW classes of spacetimes for our Universe, in light of observations that exhibit anisotropies at late times. Despite the existence of these anisotropies beyond ... -
Systems Optimizations for DNN Training and Inference on Accelerated Edge Devices
Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have had a significant impact on a wide variety of domains, such as Autonomous Vehicles, Smart Cities, and Healthcare, through low-latency inferencing on edge computing devices close to the data ... -
Studies in Probabilistic Model-Building Evolutionary Algorithms
Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are a family of metaheuristics inspired by Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection. They maintain and evolve a population of candidate solutions through stochastic variation and ... -
Genetic Code Expansion with Unnatural Amino Acids: Biosynthesis and Incorporation of Halogen and Chalcogen-containing Amino Acids into Proteins
Genetic code expansion (GCE) strategy allows incorporation of unnatural amino acids (UAAs) with diverse physical, chemical, and biochemical properties. Multiple UAAs have been successfully incorporated co-translationally ... -
Atomic-Scale Insights into the Conversion Chemistry of Metal Chalcogenides using Advanced Electron Microscopy for Structure-Property Correlation
Conversion chemistry is a pivotal technique for transforming pre-synthesized nanocrystals into new materials with precise control over their properties. The investigation of phase transformations and conversions in 2D metal ... -
