Theses and Dissertations
This collection contains theses and dissertations of graduate students of the University of Alberta. The collection contains a very large number of theses electronically available that were granted from 1947 to 2009, 90% of theses granted from 2009-2014, and 100% of theses granted from April 2014 to the present (as long as the theses are not under temporary embargo by agreement with the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies). IMPORTANT NOTE: To conduct a comprehensive search of all UofA theses granted and in University of Alberta Libraries collections, search the library catalogue at www.library.ualberta.ca - you may search by Author, Title, Keyword, or search by Department.
To retrieve all theses and dissertations associated with a specific department from the library catalogue, choose 'Advanced' and keyword search "university of alberta dept of english" OR "university of alberta department of english" (for example). Past graduates who wish to have their thesis or dissertation added to this collection can contact us at erahelp@ualberta.ca.

Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) integrate the cyber world and physical entities via seamless combinations of sensing, communication, and control. One typical feature of CPSs is that massive data packets are transmitted through unreliable wireless networks, which can be intercepted or manipulated by...

Climate change concerns have raised awareness about the importance of decarbonizing the power sector. In achieving such a goal, energy storage is a critical operation that is currently done using mostly fossil fuels as chemical energy storage. The only viable alternative is battery energy storage...

Optimal Traffic Scheduling for Infrastructure-to-Infrastructure Communications in the Internet of Vehicles
DownloadFall 2019
There have been intensive research efforts on optimizing performance in wireless networks by adjusting certain parameters in the system. Most of the works are for decision making at individual moments, which are independent of each other. However, in many cases, a sequence of decisions need to be...
