Name: Farhan A. Alenizi Date: May 26th, 2017 Time: 10:00 AM Location: Engineering Hall 3206 Committee: Professor Fadi Kurdahi Abstract: Establishing robust and blind data hiding techniques in multimedia is very important for authentication, ownership protection and security. The multimedia being used may include images, videos and 3D mesh objects. A hybrid pyramid Discrete-Wavelet-Transform (DWT) Singular-Value-Decomposition (SVD) data hiding scheme […]

Name: Peyman Nazari Date: May 15, 2017 Time: 10:00 AM Committee: Prof. Payam Heydari (Chair). Prof. Michael Green, Prof. Ahmed Eltawil Abstract:  MM-wave/sub-Terahertz (THz) signal generation, radiation, and detection have become increasingly attractive due to its fast-growing applications in spectroscopy, radar, biomedical and security imaging as well as high-speed wireless communication. Silicon technology, in one hand, […]

Name: Guantao Liu Date: March 2, 2017 Time: 4:00 PM Location: Engineering Hall 3206 Committee: Rainer Doemer (Chair), Kwei-Jay Lin, Mohammad Al Faruque Abstract: In hardware/software co-design, Discrete Event Simulation (DES) has been in use for decades to verify and validate the functionality of Electronic System Level (ESL) models. Since the parallel computing platforms are readily available […]

Name: Wael Mahmoud Elsharkasy Date: February 15, 2017 Time: 11:00 AM Location: Engineering Hall 3206 Committee: Prof. Fadi J. Kurdahi, Prof. Ahmed Eltawil, Rainer Doemer Abstract: System-on-Chip (SoC) faced lots of challenges over the past decade. With nowadays applications centered around Internet-of-Everything (IoE), these challenges are expected to be more critical. Among these challenges are the reduction of power consumption […]

Name: Hossein Tajik Date: November 15, 2016 Time: 3:00PM - 4:00PM Location: DBH 3011 Conference Room Committee: Nikil Dutt (Chair), Tony Givargis, Alex Nicolau Abstract: With the increasing number of cores on a chip, we are moving towards an era where many-core platforms will soon be ubiquitous. Efficient use of tens to hundreds of cores on […]

Name: Rana A. Abdelaal Date: January 30, 2017 Time: 1:00 PM Location: Engineering Hall 3106 Committee: Professor Ahmed Eltawil Abstract: Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO) technology has seen prolific use to achieve higher data rates and an improved communication experience for cellular systems. However, one of the challenging problems in MIMO systems is interference. Interference limits the […]

Name: Brett Chien Date: November 29, 2016 Time: 10:00AM Location: EH 2210 Committee: Pai H. Chou (Chair) Abstract:  While Internet-Of-Things (IoT) has drawn more attention to researchers and the public, to build a complete system from the edge sensing units to the cloud services requires massive amount of efforts. Researchers with strong interests in collected information are […]

Name: Hung Nguyen Date: November 17, 2016 Time: 1:30 P.M. Location: EH 3206 Committee: Fadi Kurdahi (Chair), Aditi Majumder (Co-Chair) Abstract:  We explore and develop an embedded real time system and associated algorithms that enable an aggregation of limited resource, low-quality, projection-enabled mobile devices to collaboratively produce a higher quality video stream for a superior viewing […]
