Design Of Reliable And Secure Network-On-Chip Architectures, Dean Michael B Ancajas
Design Of Reliable And Secure Network-On-Chip Architectures, Dean Michael B Ancajas
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The trend towards massive parallel computing has necessitated the need for an On-Chip communication framework that can scale well with the increasing number of cores. At the same time, technology scaling has made transistors susceptible to a multitude of reliability issues. This dissertation demonstrates design techniques that address both reliability and security issues facing modern NoC architectures. The reliability and security problem is tackled at different abstraction levels using a series of schemes that combine information from the architecture-level as well as hardware-level in order to combat aging effects and meet secure design stipulations while maintaining modest power-performance overheads.
The Design And Implementation Of The Dynamic Ionosphere Cubesat Experiment (Dice) Science Instruments, Steven Reed Burr
The Design And Implementation Of The Dynamic Ionosphere Cubesat Experiment (Dice) Science Instruments, Steven Reed Burr
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Dynamic Ionosphere Cubesat Experiment (DICE) is a cubesat satellite project funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) to study the ionosphere. Cubesats are small satellites in the shape of a cube around 10cm on a side, and allow better access to space. Three main properties of the ionosphere are measured by the DICE mission, which are electric field, magnetic field, and plasma density with an instrument for each. The limitation of power, mass, and volume contributes to the difficulty of cubesat design. Mission and instrumentation requirements must be carefully planned to ensure mission success. Each instrument’s requirements and design are …

There is an extremely large number of people in the modem world who have difficulty communicating. Among these are approximately 25 million people with cerebral palsy. Cerebral palsy is a disability that is usually caused during, or shortly after birth. Cerebral palsy usually affects a person's motor skills and sense of balance, often rendering them incapable of speaking clearly enough to be understood well. Because this group of people cannot communicate as effectively as other individuals, many uninformed people suppose they do not have as great a need to speak, to say things like, "How are you?", ''I'm Hungry", "Thank …
