A study of loading parameters that affect DNA electrophoresis in microdevices
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)
Electrophoresis of DNA has become particularly attractive in today's age of bio-technology. The goal of the present research is to optimize the the gel-loading and sample-loading protocols used prior to electrophoresis ...
Memory consistency models for high performance distributed computing
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)
This thesis develops a mathematical framework for specifying the consistency guarantees of high performance distributed shared memory multiprocessors. This framework is based on computations, which specify the operations ...
On the development of an efficient truly meshless discretization procedure in computational mechanics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)
The objective of this thesis is to present an efficient and reliable meshless computational technique - the method of finite spheres - for the solution of boundary value problems on complex domains. This method is truly ...
