This decommissioned ERA site remains active temporarily to support our final migration steps to https://ualberta.scholaris.ca, ERA's new home. All new collections and items, including Spring 2025 theses, are at that site. For assistance, please contact erahelp@ualberta.ca.
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.

Spring 2020
In recent years, Networked Control Systems have become prevalent and replaced hard wired systems. After widespread use of wireless networks and computers in control systems, a significant challenge emerged in this domain: security. As cyber security is insufficient in addressing the consequences...

Design and Microfabrication of Robust and Highly Integrated Thermal Lab-On-A-Chip Polymeric Systems for Genetic Diagnosis
DownloadSpring 2014
The lab-on-chip (LOC) technology could transform and greatly enhance the health care system by making genetic diagnosis tests fast, accurate and readily accessible. However, most LOC systems are not prepared to resist variations of their external environment, as they depend upon many...

Spring 2019
Event-triggered control systems have emerged as an important alternative to classical digital control systems, in which the flow of information between sensors, controller and actuators takes place aperiodically in an event-based manner. Event-triggered control (ETC) has seen much attention from...

Spring 2020
The Event-triggered state estimation problem has been at the forefront of systems research for several decades and has seen multiple successful applications in diverse areas such as signal processing, target tracking, and navigation systems. Event-triggered state estimation offers a promising...

Spring 2024
Large scale modern control systems involve the interconnection of system components using a communication network. The presence of a network can make these systems vulnerable to cyber attacks, thus compromising overall system’s performance and stability. Cyber attacks in control systems has been...
