FRAMEWORK FOR IMPROVING PERFORMANCE OF PROTOCOLS FOR READING RADIO FREQUENCY IDENTIFICATION TAGS
Satyavolu, Chandrika (2014-12-12)Radio-frequency Identification (RFID) is a highly sought-after wireless technology used to track and manage inventory in the supply chain industry. It has varied applications ranging from automated toll collection and ... -
Game theoretic algorithms for decentralized decision-making environments
Rangrazjeddi, Alireza (2023-08-04)Traditional viewpoints on the decision-making environment have been centered on a top-down perspective, guided by a hierarchy in which only one entity may establish desirable criteria and pursue them while considering ... -
Informed, Interactive, and Interpretable Machine Learning for Forward Kinematics of Robot Arms
Kanneganti, Sai Teja (2022-08)Machine learning (ML) is becoming increasingly sought after in diverse domains. Unfortunately for this objective, most ML research has focused too much on improving performance on evaluation metrics such as accuracy to the ... -
Infrastructure Network Resilience and Economic Impacts: Applications in Multi-Modal Freight Transportation
Darayi, Mohamad (2017-08-01)The US has defined a number of critical infrastructures, the disruption of which “would have a debilitating impact on security, national economic security, national public health or safety, or any combination of those ... -
An Integrated Multi-Echelon Multi-Objective Programming Robust Closed-Loop Supply Chain Under Dynamic Uncertainty Sets and Imperfect Quality Production
Almaraj, Ismail (2019-05)Modeling robust closed- loop supply chain under multiple uncertainties and multiple criteria where imperfect quality production is incorporated is a new research trend in this area. Such integration is essential as it ... -
Optimal Design of a Multi-scale Ensemble System for Convective Scale Probabilistic Forecasts: Data Assimilation and Initial Condition Perturbation Methods
Johnson, Aaron (2014-12-12)This dissertation research was undertaken to better understand the optimal design of convection-permitting storm-scale ensemble forecast (SSEF) systems that resolve features ranging from synoptic to convective scales. The ... -
Parallel Algorithms for Counting Problems on Graphs Using Graphics Processing Units
Chatterjee, Amlan (2014-12)The availability of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) with multicore architecture have enabled parallel computations using extensive multi-threading. Recent advancements in computer hardware have led to the usage of graphics ... -
Phenotype Operators for Improved Performance of Heuristic Encoding Within Genetic Algorithms
Carlson, Benjamin (2016-05)Many approaches to applying Genetic Algorithms (GAs) to Nondeterministic Polynomial time Complete (NPC) problems involve population members encoded directly from the problem solution space. While this technique enables ... -
Prediction Models for Estimating the Efficiency of Distributed Multi-Core Systems
Hasan, Khondker (2014-07-24)The efficiency of a multi-core architecture is directly related to the mechanisms that map the threads (processes in execution) to the cores. Determining the resource availability (CPU and main memory) of the multi-core ... -
Protecting infrastructure networks from disinformation
Jamalzadeh, Saeed (2023-05-12)Massive amount of information shared on online platforms makes the verification of contents time-consuming. Concern arises when the misleading or false information, called "disinformation", is exposed to many online ... -
RESILIENCE-BASED RESTORATION OF SYSTEMS OF INTERDEPENDENT INFRASTRUCTURE NETWORKS: IMPORTANCE MEASURES, OPTIMIZATION, AND SOLUTION APPROACHES
