Network Virtualization And Emulation Using Docker, Openvswitch And Mininet-Based Link Emulation, Narendra Prabhu
Network Virtualization And Emulation Using Docker, Openvswitch And Mininet-Based Link Emulation, Narendra Prabhu
Masters Theses
With the advent of virtualization and artificial intelligence, research on networked systems has progressed substantially. As the technology progresses, we expect a boom in not only the systems research but also in the network of systems domain. It is paramount that we understand and develop methodologies to connect and communicate among the plethora of devices and systems that exist today. One such area is mobile ad-hoc and space communication, which further complicates the task of networking due to myriad of environmental and physical conditions. Developing and testing such systems is an important step considering the large investment required to build …
Metric Learning Via Linear Embeddings For Human Motion Recognition, Byoungdoo Kong
Metric Learning Via Linear Embeddings For Human Motion Recognition, Byoungdoo Kong
Masters Theses
We consider the application of Few-Shot Learning (FSL) and dimensionality reduction to the problem of human motion recognition (HMR). The structure of human motion has unique characteristics such as its dynamic and high-dimensional nature. Recent research on human motion recognition uses deep neural networks with multiple layers. Most importantly, large datasets will need to be collected to use such networks to analyze human motion. This process is both time-consuming and expensive since a large motion capture database must be collected and labeled. Despite significant progress having been made in human motion recognition, state-of-the-art algorithms still misclassify actions because of characteristics …
Short Term Energy Forecasting For A Microgird Load Using Lstm Rnn, Akhil Soman
Short Term Energy Forecasting For A Microgird Load Using Lstm Rnn, Akhil Soman
Masters Theses
Decentralization of the electric grid can increase resiliency (during natural disasters) and can reduce T&D energy losses and emissions. Microgrids and DERs can enable this to happen. It is important to optimally control microgrids and DERs to extract the greatest economic, environmental and resiliency benefits. This is enabled by robust forecasting to optimally control loads and energy sources. An integral part of microgrid control is power side and load side demand forecasting.
In this thesis, we look at the ability of a powerful neural network algorithm to forecast the load side demand for a microgrid using the UMass campus as …
Compound Effects Of Clock And Voltage Based Power Side-Channel Countermeasures, Jacqueline Lagasse
Compound Effects Of Clock And Voltage Based Power Side-Channel Countermeasures, Jacqueline Lagasse
Masters Theses
The power side-channel attack, which allows an attacker to derive secret information from power traces, continues to be a major vulnerability in many critical systems. Numerous countermeasures have been proposed since its discovery as a serious vulnerability, including both hardware and software implementations. Each countermeasure has its own drawback, with some of the highly effective countermeasures incurring large overhead in area and power. In addition, many countermeasures are quite invasive to the design process, requiring modification of the design and therefore additional validation and testing to ensure its accuracy. Less invasive countermeasures that do not require directly modifying the system …
Sundown: Model-Driven Per-Panel Solar Anomaly Detection For Residential Arrays, Menghong Feng
Sundown: Model-Driven Per-Panel Solar Anomaly Detection For Residential Arrays, Menghong Feng
Masters Theses
There has been significant growth in both utility-scale and residential-scale solar installa- tions in recent years, driven by rapid technology improvements and falling prices. Unlike utility-scale solar farms that are professionally managed and maintained, smaller residential- scale installations often lack sensing and instrumentation for performance monitoring and fault detection. As a result, faults may go undetected for long periods of time, resulting in generation and revenue losses for the homeowner. In this thesis, we present SunDown, a sensorless approach designed to detect per-panel faults in residential solar arrays. SunDown does not require any new sensors for its fault detection and …
