Early detection of cyber-physical attacks in electric vehicles fast charging stations using machine learning
(2021-08-01)
In smart grids, the concept of “vehicle-to-grid” allows the electric vehicles to export power to the grid to support the electric utilities in the power distribution system’s operation. The implementation of such a concept ...
Development of a knowledge base using human experience semantic network for instructive texts
(2021-12-01)
An organized knowledge base plays a vital role in retaining knowledge. Instructive text (iText) consists of a set of instructions to accomplish a task or operation. In the case of iText, storing only entities and their ...
Reducing operational cost of an autonomous robot using combined data-driven and navigational algorithms
(2021-04-01)
Autonomous mobile robots have become an important presence in various fields of work, but are restricted by short operation times due to the limitations of their onboard energy sources. This factor bottlenecks applications ...
Joint optimization of transmit beamforming and base station cache allocation in multi-cell C-RAN
(2021-11-01)
Cloud radio access network (C-RAN) with wireless backhaul has been considered as a possible solution for small cell deployment. Limited capacity of wireless backhaul encourages people to equip the base stations (BSs) with ...
A novel spatiotemporal framework for efficient traffic prediction and visualization
(2021-12-01)
This thesis proposes an efficient traffic prediction framework to estimate congestion at intersections depending on neighboring road links. The framework encompasses three major components, data extraction, Bayesian Linear ...
Development of a model to investigate the sustainability of Ontario’s future electricity supply through a dual life cycle lens
(2021-10-01)
Since the turn of the century, greenhouse gas emissions and their climate related impacts have been studied with increased vigor. A tool that has gained popularity in supporting the reduction of emissions is life cycle ...
Development of waste management systems: applications of Durham Region
(2021-08-01)
This thesis aims to reduce environmental impacts and increase overall efficiencies of domestic waste management systems by proposing case studies for Durham Region. Case study 1 integrates an anaerobic digestion facility ...
Application-specific transfer learning over edge networks
(2021-11-01)
Transfer learning uses a profound labeled set of data from the source domain to deal with a similar problem for the target domain. Transfer learning provides accurate decision- making when insufficient data samples are ...
Design and development of a blockchain-based consent management system
(2021-08-01)
Data management is defined as obtaining, processing, safeguarding, and storing information about an organization to aid in making better business decisions for the firm. With the proliferation of smart devices, the amount ...
Enhancement of lateral stability for a multi-wheeled combat vehicle using various control strategies
(2021-08-01)
This thesis investigates various active chassis control strategies for multi-wheeled combat vehicle to enhance its lateral stability at limit handling. The proposed control strategies are Active All- Wheel Steering (AWS), ...
