Detection Of Variable Retention Time In Dram, Neraj Kumar
Detection Of Variable Retention Time In Dram, Neraj Kumar
Dissertations and Theses
This thesis investigates a test method to detect the presence of Variable Retention Time (VRT) bits in manufactured DRAM. The VRT bits retention time is modeled as a 2-state random telegraph process that includes miscorrelation between test and use. The VRT defect is particularly sensitive to test and use conditions. A new test method is proposed to screen the VRT bits by simulating the use conditions during manufacturing test. Evaluation of the proposed test method required a bit-level VRT model to be parameterized as a function of temperature and voltage conditions. The complete 2-state VRT bit model combines models for …
System-Wide Performance Analysis For Virtualization, Deron Eugene Jensen
System-Wide Performance Analysis For Virtualization, Deron Eugene Jensen
Dissertations and Theses
With the current trend in cloud computing and virtualization, more organizations are moving their systems from a physical host to a virtual server.
Although this can significantly reduce hardware, power, and administration costs, it can increase the cost of analyzing performance problems. With virtualization, there is an initial performance overhead, and as more virtual machines are added to a physical host the interference increases between various guest machines. When this interference occurs, a virtualized guest application may not perform as expected. There is little or no information to the virtual OS about the interference, and the current performance tools in …
Ranked Similarity Search Of Scientific Datasets: An Information Retrieval Approach, Veronika Margaret Megler
Ranked Similarity Search Of Scientific Datasets: An Information Retrieval Approach, Veronika Margaret Megler
Dissertations and Theses
In the past decade, the amount of scientific data collected and generated by scientists has grown dramatically. This growth has intensified an existing problem: in large archives consisting of datasets stored in many files, formats and locations, how can scientists find data relevant to their research interests? We approach this problem in a new way: by adapting Information Retrieval techniques, developed for searching text documents, into the world of (primarily numeric) scientific data. We propose an approach that uses a blend of automated and curated methods to extract metadata from large repositories of scientific data. We then perform searches over …
Mobile Robot Localization Based On Kalman Filter, Omar Q. Mohsin
Mobile Robot Localization Based On Kalman Filter, Omar Q. Mohsin
Dissertations and Theses
Robot localization is one of the most important subjects in the Robotics science. It is an interesting and complicated topic. There are many algorithms to solve the problem of localization. Each localization system has its own set of features, and based on them, a solution will be chosen. In my thesis, I want to present a solution to find the best estimate for a robot position in certain space for which a map is available. The thesis started with an elementary introduction to the probability and the Gaussian theories. Simple and advanced practical examples are presented to illustrate each concept …
