A graph-theoretic approach to the construction of Lyapunov functions for coupled systems on networks
DownloadFall 2010
For coupled systems of differential equations on networks, a graph-theoretic approach to the construction of Lyapunov functions is systematically developed in this thesis. Kirchhoff’s Matrix-Tree Theorem in graph theory plays an essential role in the approach’s development. The approach is...

An integrated framework to handle design, complexity, and controls challenges in industrial systems
DownloadSpring 2019
During the past few decades, there has been a significant increase in automation. Mechanical processes and operations are continuously being automated. Mechanical assemblies are no longer only mechanical, but also contain a large portion of electrical wires, connections, and controls signals....

Carving Curriculum out of Chaos: Exploring Teacher Interventions and the Patterning of Small Groups in Mathematics Class
DownloadSpring 2017
Small group work is becoming an increasingly popular structure for promoting communication, sense-making, and reasoning in the mathematics class. This increased sense of student autonomy must co-exist with the curriculum, the expectation to provide opportunities for students to master certain...

According to many biologists, explaining the evolution of morphological novelty and behavioral innovation are central endeavors in contemporary evolutionary biology. These endeavors are inherently multidisciplinary but also have involved a high degree of controversy. One key source of controversy...

A fair and optimal mechanism is required for allocating bandwidth to virtual machine migration in a WAN environment. In this thesis, we propose a dynamic resource allocation algorithm running in either centralized or distributed environments. The centralized version of our algorithm collects...

Contrairement à ce que le sous-titre pourrait laisser croire, Reticulations n’est ni un livre sur Jean-Luc Nancy ni un livre sur les réseaux si, du moins, on entend par là les réseaux de transport ou de télécommunication omniprésents dans notre vie moderne. Le livre de Philip Armstrong ne vise...

Freshwater Sponges Have Functional, Sealing Epithelia with High Transepithelial Resistance and Negative Transepithelial Potential
Download2010
Leys, S.P., Goss, G.G., Adams, E.D.M.
Epithelial tissue — the sealed and polarized layer of cells that regulates transport of ions and solutes between the environment and the internal milieu — is a defining characteristic of the Eumetazoa. Sponges, the most ancient metazoan phylum [1], [2], are generally believed to lack true...

By eavesdropping on a user's query in a sensor network, an adversary can deduce both the user's current location and his/her location of interest. Issuing k queries instead of one (our "k-query" scheme) protects the privacy of the user's location of interest, but facilitates the adversary...
