Gate Level Probabilistic Simulation Based Hardware Trojan Susceptibility Analysis Of Combinational Circuits, Venkata Lakshmi Bhargavi Gurram Oct 2018

Gate Level Probabilistic Simulation Based Hardware Trojan Susceptibility Analysis Of Combinational Circuits, Venkata Lakshmi Bhargavi Gurram

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Today multi-million gate integrated circuits are being commonly used in many critical (eg., health care) and sensitive (eg., military) applications. Therefore, they are susceptible to malicious modifications, namely, Hardware Trojans (HTs), with the intent of leaking sensitive information, denial-of-service etc. There are many ways of inserting Hardware Trojans in ICs. Thus, HT detection and mitigation are very important tasks. In this thesis, we propose a novel probabilistic simulation based approach to estimate the susceptibility of a combinational circuit to a HT. One of the common ways is to simulate the netlist with typical input sequences and identifying low activity nets …


Optical Wireless Data Center Networks, Abdelbaset S. Hamza Oct 2018

Optical Wireless Data Center Networks, Abdelbaset S. Hamza

School of Computing: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

Bandwidth and computation-intensive Big Data applications in disciplines like social media, bio- and nano-informatics, Internet-of-Things (IoT), and real-time analytics, are pushing existing access and core (backbone) networks as well as Data Center Networks (DCNs) to their limits. Next generation DCNs must support continuously increasing network traffic while satisfying minimum performance requirements of latency, reliability, flexibility and scalability. Therefore, a larger number of cables (i.e., copper-cables and fiber optics) may be required in conventional wired DCNs. In addition to limiting the possible topologies, large number of cables may result into design and development problems related to wire ducting and maintenance, heat …


Magnetic Ordering In A Vanadium-Organic Coordination Polymer Using A Pyrrolo[2,3-D:5,4-D']Bis(Thiazole)-Based Ligand, Yulia A. Getmanenko, Christopher S. Mullins, Vladimir N. Nesterov, Stephanie Lake, Chad Risko, Ezekiel Johnston-Halperin Oct 2018

Magnetic Ordering In A Vanadium-Organic Coordination Polymer Using A Pyrrolo[2,3-D:5,4-D']Bis(Thiazole)-Based Ligand, Yulia A. Getmanenko, Christopher S. Mullins, Vladimir N. Nesterov, Stephanie Lake, Chad Risko, Ezekiel Johnston-Halperin

Chemistry Faculty Publications

Here we present the synthesis and characterization of a hybrid vanadium-organic coordination polymer with robust magnetic order, a Curie temperature TC of ∼110 K, a coercive field of ∼5 Oe at 5 K, and a maximum mass magnetization of about half that of the benchmark ferrimagnetic vanadium(tetracyanoethylene)~2 (V·(TCNE)~2). This material was prepared using a new tetracyano-substituted quinoidal organic small molecule 7 based on a tricyclic heterocycle 4-hexyl-4H-pyrrolo[2,3-d:5,4-d′]bis(thiazole) (C6-PBTz). Single crystal X-ray diffraction of the 2,6-diiodo derivative of the parent C6-PBTz, showed a disordered hexyl chain and …


Micronutrient Availability In Alternative Foods During Agricultural Catastrophes, David C. Denkenberger, Joshua M. Pearce Oct 2018

Micronutrient Availability In Alternative Foods During Agricultural Catastrophes, David C. Denkenberger, Joshua M. Pearce

Department of Materials Science and Engineering Publications

Several catastrophes could block the sun, including asteroid/comet impact, super volcanic eruption, and nuclear war with the burning of cities (nuclear winter). Previous work has analyzed alternate food supplies (e.g., mushrooms growing on dead trees, bacteria growing on natural gas). This was shown to be technically capable of feeding everyone with macronutrients (protein, carbohydrates, and lipids) and minerals, although economics and politics remain uncertain. The present work analyzes vitamin availability in such alternative food scenarios. The vitamin content of various alternate foods is compared to the US recommended daily allowance (RDA) as well as the average requirement defined by the …


The Role Of Forests In Securing Hydropower Needs Of Cambodia, Mohit Kaura Oct 2018

The Role Of Forests In Securing Hydropower Needs Of Cambodia, Mohit Kaura

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Hydropower relies on protection of watersheds to regulate water and sediment yields. Deforestation accelerates the rate of soil erosion, thereby increasing the amount of river sediments heading to the dam's reservoir, decreasing the longevity of the dam. In Cambodia in particular, recent deforestation rates are among the largest on the planet, and forests are expected to disappear within the lifespan of proposed dams. The cost of protecting and restoring forested watersheds can be considered as an annual investment towards sustainable reservoir management and hydropower generation. A modeling framework is developed to estimate the sediment accumulation in reservoirs from deforestation-driven soil …

Dielectrophoretic Nanoparticle Propellant Injection With Plasmonic Acceleration, Jaykob Maser, Joshua Rovey Oct 2018

Dielectrophoretic Nanoparticle Propellant Injection With Plasmonic Acceleration, Jaykob Maser, Joshua Rovey

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

We describe the concept of a dielectrophoretic propellant injector and its inclusion in a plasmonic-based, small-satellite propulsion system. Thrust is achieved by applying a plasmon generated non-uniform electromagnetic field, and corresponding dielectrophoretic force, to net-neutral nanoparticles.
