Nanostructured carbon-based materials for electrochemical applications
(2019-12-01)
Mesoporous carbons have been widely studied due to the relevance of these materials for applications in energy storage and conversion devices (batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells), mainly due to their high surface ...
DistGALO: Distributed system for query problem determination
(2019-12-01)
Query optimization is a quintessential element of modern Database Management Systems(DBMSs). Compile-time driven estimates and heuristics aid the compiler in selecting what is deemed the lowest cost Access Plan for a given ...
QoE aware real-time multimedia streaming in software-defined networks
(2019-08-01)
The exponential increase in bandwidth-sensitive multimedia traffic on the net has given rise to new challenges and services. There is a need to have quality management measures to serve the high needs of efficient transmission ...
Probing the influence of relative humidity and temperature on the sulfonated silica ceramic carbon electrode for PEM fuel cell operation
(2019-05-01)
Operation of fuel cells under low relative humidity (RH) and high temperature is a useful way to cut-down cost and increase performance. However, the Nafion ionomer employed in the electrode of the conventional fuel cells ...
Exploring design alternatives in game development engines using visual programming
(2019-04-01)
We present BPAlt – a system which allows game developers to create and manage alternatives for Unreal Engine’s Blueprints Visual Scripting System. BPAlt allows the user to create, save, organize and swap Blueprint alternatives ...
UniNet: A mixed reality driving simulator
(2019-08-01)
Driving simulators play an important role in vehicle research. However, existing virtual reality simulators do not give users a true sense of presence. UniNet is our driving simulator, designed to allow users to interact ...
A few randomized protocols in peer-to-peer networks
(2019-08-01)
This thesis studies a few randomized algorithms in application-layer peer-to-peer networks. The significant gain in scalability and resilience that peer-to-peer networks provide has made them widely used and adopted in ...
Design and evaluation of a novel convolutional neural network for short-term vehicle multi-traffic prediction
(2019-08-01)
Short-term vehicle traffic forecasting is about predicting how traffic indicators are going to be in the near future. The main traffic parameters are: traffic volume, traffic speed, and congestion state. In this thesis, ...
Visual encoding quality and scalability in information visualization
(2019-02-01)
Information visualization seeks to amplify cognition through interactive visual representations of data. It comprises human processes, such as perception and cognition, and computer processes, such as visual encoding. ...
An anomaly detection model utilizing attributes of low powered networks, IEEE 802.15.4e/TSCH and machine learning methods
(2019-12-01)
The rapid growth in sensors, low-power integrated circuits, and wireless communication standards has enabled a new generation of applications based on ultra-low powered wireless sensor networks. These are employed in many ...
