Rule based analysis of computer security
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1987)
Optimal-efficiency constant-speed control of nonlinear variable reluctance motor drives
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1988)
Reflectance map techniques for analyzing surface defects in metal castings
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1977)
Orientation of crystalline overlayers on amorphous substrates by artificially produced surface relief structures.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1978)
Efficient algorithms for new computational models
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)
Advances in hardware design and manufacturing often lead to new ways in which problems can be solved computationally. In this thesis we explore fundamental problems in three computational models that are based on such ...
Surface reflectance recognition and real-world illumination statistics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)
Humans distinguish materials such as metal, plastic, and paper effortlessly at a glance. Traditional computer vision systems cannot solve this problem at all. Recognizing surface reflectance properties from a single ...
Structure of the polar electrojet antenna
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)
Field experiments were performed in Gakona, Alaska in August and November 2002. The ionospheric conductivity was periodically perturbed using amplitude-modulated radiation from the HAARP HF transmitter (1 MW power, 14 dB ...
Field emission from organic materials
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)
Field emission displays (FEDs) show great promise as high performance flat panel displays. The light emission process is efficient, long lifetimes are possible with high brightness, and bright passive matrix displays can ...
Subgradient methods for convex minimization
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)
Many optimization problems arising in various applications require minimization of an objective cost function that is convex but not differentiable. Such a minimization arises, for example, in model construction, system ...
Hybrid eager and lazy evaluation for efficient compilation of Haskell
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)
The advantage of a non-strict, purely functional language such as Haskell lies in its clean equational semantics. However, lazy implementations of Haskell fall short: they cannot express tail recursion gracefully without ...
