(2009-07-20)Department: Computer ScienceTraffic signals provide the key mechanism to regulate traffic, and promote safe and efficient traffic flow at intersections. However, incidents of red light running can compromise the safety of the system. Research shows ...
-
(2006-06-07)Department: Computer ScienceModel-Integrated Computing (MIC) is an approach for model-based design of embedded software and systems. MIC places strong emphasis on the use of domain-specific modeling languages (DSMLs) and model transformation techniques ...
-
(2023-07-19)Department: Computer ScienceModel-driven engineering (MDE) has been applied extensively to Cyber-physical systems (CPS) in which the functionality emerges from the interactions of computational and physical processes. The CPS design of autonomous ...
-
(2008-04-25)Department: Computer ScienceThis thesis describes the design and implementation of a thread-safe meta-programmable data model that can be used in a multi-threaded environment without the need for user defined synchronization. The locking mechanisms ...
-
(2009-03-27)Department: Computer ScienceEmerging applications in the realm of Intelligent Transportation systems, such as traffic congestion management and vehicle rerouting, weather alerts, and infotainment via multimedia streaming, require timely and reliable ...
-
(2015-03-26)Department: Computer ScienceMobile devices place many constraints on interaction compared to desktop interaction, limiting task performance and the number of achievable task types. Despite the industry focus on improving mobile interface designs and ...
-
(2011-12-12)Department: Computer ScienceOver the past decade component-based technologies, such as the CORBA Component Model (CCM), have found increased acceptance as vehicles for implementing distributed systems at many levels of complexity and size. Examples ...

(2008-10-27)Department: Computer ScienceThere is an increasing demand for adaptive capabilities in distributed real-time and embedded (DRE) systems that execute in open environments where system operational conditions, input workload, and resource availability ...
-
(2014-06-09)Department: Computer ScienceOpen-ended computer-based learning environments (OELEs) challenge learners to independently solve complex problems. These environments provide powerful opportunities for learners to develop and utilize strategies for ...
-
(2023-09-26)Department: Computer ScienceIn CPS design process, the presence of computationally complex slow evaluation processes such as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) acts as bottlenecks in the design iteration. To overcome these bottlenecks and accelerate ...
-
(2024-02-05)Department: Computer ScienceNon-contract low-dose CT of the chest (LDCT) is the standard imaging protocol for lung cancer screening. In addition to lung parenchyma, this imaging modality provides a high-spatial-resolution depiction of the thoracic ...
-
(2009-04-10)Department: Computer ScienceAgile techniques are a promising approach to facilitate the development of large-scale component-based distributed real-time and embedded (DRE) systems. Conventional agile techniques help ensure functional concerns of such ...
-
(2006-04-20)Department: Computer ScienceThesis under the supervision of Professor Douglas C. Schmidt: Historically enterprise distributed, real-time and embedded (DRE) systems were developed atop of operating systems and protocols. These traditional methods ...
-
(2018-11-27)Department: Computer ScienceLarge-scale medical imaging studies to date have predominantly leveraged in-house, laboratory-based or traditional grid computing resources for their computing needs, where the applications often use hierarchical data ...
-
(2017-07-13)Department: Computer ScienceMarketing researchers and practitioners care about why and how products or services are adopted by consumers. The influential theory of innovation diffusion has been established for decades, but modeling and simulating the ...
