Explosive energy yield analysis of World Trade Center crash
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)An estimation of the energy yielded from the explosion created by the crash of United Flight 175 into the World Trade Center was conducted to rule out the possibility of other explosive elements (i.e. a bomb) on board. The ... -
Exponential bounds on error probability with Feedback
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Feedback is useful in memoryless channels for decreasing complexity and increasing reliability; the capacity of the memoryless channels, however, can not be increased by feedback. For fixed length block codes even the decay ... -

Exporting resilience : evaluating US-Netherlands collaborations aimed at enhancing flooding resilience in New York City and New Orleans
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)Since Hurricane Katrina, partnerships have developed between the Netherlands and various governmental bodies in the United States with the express goal of helping cities enhance their resilience to serious flooding. At the ... -
Exposing datapath elements to reduce microprocessor energy consumption
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)In this thesis, we evaluate the feasibility of exposing elements in a processor's datapath to the compiler in order to reduce energy consumption. We focus on eliminating register file traffic by exposing the latches in the ... -
