Gateway selection in multi-hop wireless networks
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This thesis describes the implementation of MultiNAT, an application that attempts to provide the benefits of client multi-homing while requiring minimal client configuration, and the evaluation of a novel link-selection ... -
Gateway to energy democracy and access in India using off-grid solar home systems and PayGo platform
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)More than a billion people around the world still lack access to electricity with more than 300 million of them living in India. Without any other options, these citizens are forced to either go without power or burn ... -
A gateway to the city of Dallas, Texas ; A county government center
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1958) -
A gathering of water
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The act of immersion is a powerful catalyst for the affirmation or transformation of identity. How we place ourselves in water expresses cultural valuations of our bodies, water, and social relations, as well as categories ... -
Gathering the landscape : a community arts center on Lookout Mountain
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1989)With a tape measure and a pad of newsprint, to document, understand and re-present a natural place was the first goal of this thesis. From this understanding a new built presence, a redefinition of the site, is sought, to ... -
Gauge symmetries and charged matter in F-theory
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)F-theory has emerged as a powerful tool for string compactification, as it can realize a number of string vacua with varying gauge groups, charged matter, and other properties. However, some aspects of F-theory are still ... -
Gauge-fixing and equivariant cohomology
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994) -
A Gauss pseudospectral transcription for optimal control
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)A pseudospectral method for solving nonlinear optimal control problems is proposed in this thesis. The method is a direct transcription that transcribes the continuous optimal control problem into a discrete nonlinear ... -
Gaussian alignments in statistical translation models
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Machine translation software has been under development almost since the birth of the electronic computer. Current state-of-the-art methods use statistical techniques to learn how to translate from one natural language to ... -
Gaussian free field, Schramm-Loewner evolution and Liouville quantum gravity
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)Consider an instance h of the Gaussian free field on a simply connected domain ... We study several properties of the level lines: continuity, monotonicity, reversibility and target-independence ... In the second part, we ... -
Gaussian processes at the Helm(holtz): A more fluid model for ocean currents
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-06)Oceanographers are interested in predicting ocean currents and identifying divergences in a current vector field based on sparse observations of buoy velocities. Since we expect current velocity to be a continuous but ... -
Gaussian Quadrature for computer aided robust design
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Computer aided design has allowed many design decisions to be made before hardware is built through "virtual" prototypes: computer simulations of an engineering design. To produce robust systems noise factors must also be ... -
Gaze Prediction in First-Person View Videos
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)Gaze is an important topic in computer vision as it reveals points of interest that tend to capture a subject's attention in a scene and potential intentions of the subject of gaze. Gaze data is becoming more readily ... -
Gaze tracking : seeking critical information for autonomous excavation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)Automating excavation in mining and construction applications is crucial today as the supply of skilled operators cannot match market demand. To efficiently make control decisions for autonomous excavators without having ... -
Gaze-tracking analysis for cognitive screening and assessment
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)Neurodegenerative diseases degrade the mental and physical capabilities of afflicted individuals around the world. Early diagnosis can make it possible to reduce the effects and progression of these diseases. The novel ... -
Ge and GeSi electroabsorption modulator arrays via strain and composition engineering
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)Electronic and photonic integrated circuits serve as a promising platform for telecommunications and sensing applications. Electroabsorption modulators allow fast modulation, small device footprint, and low power consumption. ... -
Ge photodetectors for Si microphotonics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)This thesis demonstrates the integration of pure Ge near-infrared photodetectors on Si. Ge epilayers were grown directly on Si by a two-step ultra-high-vacuum/chemical-vapor-deposition (UHV/CVD) process. This work conclusively ... -
Ge-on-Si laser for silicon photonics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Ge-on-Si devices are explored for photonic integration. Importance of Ge in photonics has grown and through techniques developed in our group we demonstrated low density of dislocations (<1x109cm-2) and point defects Ge ... -
Ge-on-Si light-emitting materials and devices for silicon photonics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The rapid growing needs for high data transmission bandwidth challenge the metal interconnection technology in every area from chip-level interconnects to long distance communication. Silicon photonics is an ideal platform ... -
A GEANT4 simulation of the recoil proton stopping acceptance in the near-threshold γ p [right arrow] [pi]⁰p reaction on a scintillator target
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)The simulation of the recoil proton stopping acceptance in the near-threshold [gamma]p [right arrow] [pi]⁰p reaction on a CH1.1 scintillator target has been carried out using the new state-of-the-art CERN GEANT4 toolkit. ...
