Optimizations in stream programming for multimedia applications
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Multimedia applications are the most dominant workload in desktop and mobile computing. Such applications regularly process continuous sequences of data and can be naturally represented under the stream programming domain ... -
Optimizations to a massively parallel database and support of a shared scan architecture
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)This thesis presents a new architecture and optimizations to MapD, a database server which uses a hybrid of multi-CPU/multi-GPU architecture for query execution and analysis. We tackle the challenge of partitioning the ... -
Optimized air asset scheduling within a Joint Aerospace Operations Center (JAOC)
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)In this thesis, we introduce and analyze models for air asset scheduling within a military theater. Specifically, we seek to create models that generate aircraft-specific schedules for Air Tasking Orders (ATOs) within a ... -
Optimized border interdiction
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)A feature of many conflicts is the presence of a border that separates an area of on-going military operations from an area that the enemy can use permissively. This thesis considers analytic techniques for planning military ... -
An optimized CAM-8 simulator for the SPARC architecture
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1992) -
Optimized core design of a supercritical carbon dioxide-cooled fast reactor
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Spurred by the renewed interest in nuclear power, Gas-cooled Fast Reactors (GFRs) have received increasing attention in the past decade. Motivated by the goals of the Generation-IV International Forum (GIF), a GFR cooled ... -
Optimized design and structural analysis of a non-pressurized manned submersible
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)This thesis presents an approach to the structural design and optimization of a non-pressurized manned submersible (NPMS), a type of fully "flooded" submersible based on a SEAL Delivery Vehicle (SDV) Design Concept. Using ... -
Optimized distribution supply chain for improved customer service
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)In an attempt to attract consumers, companies are offering an increasingly wide range of product varieties to cater to each consumers individual needs and desires. This behavior leads to fragmentation of demand that increases ... -
Optimized finite difference schemes for wave propagation in high loss viscoelastic material
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994) -
Optimized geometry compression for real-time rendering
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1997) -
An optimized hardware architecture and communication protocol for scheduled communication
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1997) -
An optimized Linear Lorentz-force Actuator for biorobotics and needle-free injection
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Voice coils are a configuration of Linear Lorentz-force Actuator (LLA) that offer efficient transduction of electrical energy into linear motion. The simple geometry of a typical voice coil motor makes the configuration ... -
An optimized product development process for aircraft gas turbine engines
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003) -
Optimized routing of unmanned aerial systems to address informational gaps in counterinsurgency
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Recent military conflicts reveal that the ability to assess and improve the health of a society contributes more to a successful counterinsurgency (COIN) than direct military engagement. In COIN, a military commander ... -
Optimized supply routing at Dell under non-stationary demand
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)This thesis describes the design and implementation of an optimization model to manage inventory at Dell's American factories. Specifically, the model is a mixed integer program which makes routing decisions on incoming ... -
Optimized transfer-pricing model for Asia Pacific
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Transfer price is an important field of study for profit maximization. As more multinational enterprises (MNEs) are involved in global trading in the recent decades, the objective to set an optimized transfer price is more ... -
Optimizing a deep learning approach for automatic segmentations for white matter lesions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)White matter lesion detection in the brain is crucial in diagnosing cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy early in order for life-saving therapies to be as effective as possible. To assist doctors in this early diagnosis, I developed ... -
Optimizing a parallel fast Fourier transform
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Parallel computing, especially cluster computing has become more popular and more powerful in recent years. Star-P is a means of harnessing that power by eliminating the difficulties in parallelizing code and by providing ... -
Optimizing a product development process by simulating numerical-design structure matrices
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001) -
Optimizing a protein-RNA aptamer gene regulatory system using an engineered peptide library
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)For this project, N-terminal and C-terminal peptide library fusions were designed,bconstructed, and screened in order to improve the repression achievable with a novel gene regulatory system. This system, based on the ...
