Wireless Health: Reliability Oriented Design and Optimization

This thesis encapsulates multiple medical system and application which we have developed and explores the research challenges in this area. Particularly, there is a focus on the most significant challenges which are energy consumption and reliability of these mobile and battery-powered systems. We will see why traditional reliability techniques fail in these systems and will present general methodologies for reliability-aware energy optimization for such systems with real-time constraints. Moreover, a new computational model will be presented which fits the unique characteristics of networked lightweight embedded systems. Under this model, network algorithms and problems are studied. Specially the fundamental problem of minimum spanning three is thoroughly investigated.

Unfortunately, just like other low power design techniques, DVS requirements for
power reduction is at odds with SEU resiliency and that is because the rate of
SEUs increases exponentially as supply voltage decreases as shown in [129] [90

Methods in Statistical Shape Analysis for Landmark-based Three-dimensional Data, with Applications to an Orthodontic Study

Because of some statistical issues that arise in the standard shape analysis setting, an alternative approach will also be applied. This approach, borrowed from computational topology, is called persistent homology. It will be applied to the existing shape analysis framework to detect clusters or subgroups of similarly-shaped objects.

Perceived Attributes of Diffusion of Innovation Theory as Predictors of Internet Adoption Among the Faculty Members of Imam Mohammed Bin Saud University

Imam Muhammad Bin Saud Islamic University (IMSU) is a pioneering public university in Saudi Arabia. Until recently, some faculty members at IMSU were unable to access the Internet through the university. It is important to study the effects of this delay on faculty members regarding research and academic activities.

Back to Basics in Indonesia? Reassessing the Pancasila and Pancasila State and Society, 1945--2007

Both the Old and New Order governments in Indonesia declared that their state system was based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution. Most Westerners and many Indonesians believed that the Pancasila under the New Order was but a euphemistic disguise for authoritarian governance, re-articulated by cunning ideologues in army circles to suppress society and to consolidate the power of Suharto and the military. This dissertation argues that the continuous return to the Pancasila by successive regimes in Indonesia reflected the fundamental fears and anxieties of these leaderships as they grappled with the project of nation-building in Indonesia. The Pancasila was seen as a panacea to the obstacles posed by ethnic, religious, and regional differences. By emphasizing civic values and citizenship as the foundation of the Indonesian nation, the leaders of different regimes sought to transcend these so-called primordial forces. The history of the Pancasila in Indonesia was thus a history of the Indonesian nation, and ultimately the struggle between the state and what it perceived as the divisive forces in society. Despite the perceived authoritarianism of the New Order regime, its failure to implement its Pancasila program was, in fact, the manifestation of its weaknesses vis-a-vis the forces of religion, region, and ethnicity in Indonesian society and its failure to subordinate them.

Machine Learning for Real-time Strategy Computer Games

A commercial Real-Time Strategy (RTS) game requires an artificial intelligence component, simply called an "AI", capable of providing a human player with a challenging opponent. These AIs must simulate the play style of a competent human player. The AIs of current RTS games can play with multiple levels of skill. However, their simulation of a competent human player is incomplete because they cannot change their tactics to adapt to a human player.
