CBPsp: complex business processes for stream processing
(2011-04-01)
This thesis presents the framework of a complex business process driven event
stream processing system to produce meaningful output with direct implications to the
business objectives of an organization. This framework is ...
Data hiding and detection in Office Open XML (OOXML) documents
(2011-03-01)
With the rapid development and popularity of information technology, criminals and mischievous computer users are given avenues to commit crimes and malicious activities. One of the commonly used tactics, called steganography, ...
Profile extrusion of wood plastic cellular composites and formulation evaluation using compression molding
(2010-05-01)
Wood Plastic Composites (WPCs) have experienced a healthy growth during the last decade. However, improvement in properties is necessary to increase their utility for structural applications. The toughness of WPCs can be ...
Islanding detection in distribution system embedded with renewable-based distributed generation
(2012-12-01)
Classical view of power system is characterized by a unidirectional power flow from
centralized generation to consumers. Power system deregulation gave impetus to a
modern view by introducing distributed generations (DGs) ...
Piezoelectric flexing and output voltage of a microchannel heat engine
(2010-08-01)
In this thesis, a new model is formulated for a piezoelectric membrane and fluid motion in a microchannel heat engine. A new slug flow model is developed for droplet motion in a circular cross-section channel. The model ...
Effective design of multiplexing network for applications in communications satellites
(2011-07-01)
Microwave multiplexing networks are widely used in satellite communication systems. Their performances, such as the insertion loss and rejection between channels, are extremely critical. This research aims at effective ...
Optomal three-time slot distributed beamforming for two-way relaying
(2010-08-01)
In this study, we consider a relay network, with two transceivers and r relay nodes. We
assume that each of relays and the two transceivers have a single antenna. For establishing
the connection between these two transceivers, ...
Secure and compromise-resilient architecture for advanced metering infrastructure
(2011-03-01)
In recent years, the Smart Grid has grown to be the solution for future electrical energy that promises to avoid blackouts as well as to be energy efficient, environmentally and customer-friendly. In Smart Grid, the ...
Design and optimization of a three-fingered robot hand
(2011-04-01)
Humanoid robots have proven to be very useful and could revolutionize the way humans
live. Knowing human anatomy and behaviour helps improve a robotic mechanisms
ability to perform human tasks. The following thesis introduces ...
Haptic teleoperation of mobile manipulator systems using virtual fixtures.
(2011-11-01)
In order to make the task of controlling Mobile-Manipulator Systems (MMS) simpler, a
novel command strategy that uses a single joystick is presented to replace the existing
paradigm of using multiple joysticks. To improve ...
