Abstract:

This thesis addresses the problem of cubesat limitations on transmission power and onboard memory storage. The number of small satellites is continuing to increase. The reduced amount of time and budget required for the development of these satellites has considerable advantages. The short time leads to data becoming available faster than from a larger satellite. Consequently, the communication system is very important to ensure that all data from the cubesat can be transmitted to the receiving station. In this thesis the link budget of a cubesat has been studied to identify the constraints on

Abstract:

Digital interventions have great potential to support people to change their behaviour. However, most interventions focus on strategies that target limited conscious resources, reducing their potential impact. We outline how these may fail in the longer-term due to issues with theory, users and technology. We propose an alternative: the direct targeting of nonconscious processes to achieve behaviour change. We synthesise Dual Process Theory, modern habit theory and Goal Setting Theory, which together model how users form and break nonconscious behaviours, into an explanatory framework to explo

Computer performance has become increasingly important at modern computer installations. At the same time, performance analysts have shown a strong interest in using expert system technology to meet these new demands. Because of the importance of the system sort product in improving overall system performance, a prototype expert system (KBSORT) was developed. When embedded in the system sort utility, KBSORT optimizes the CPU time performance of the sort applications generated by the system utility.

Technology is often presented as a neutral tool to be used when and where appropriate to perform work more efficiently and improve the quality of life. This dissertation explores the possibility that computers are distributed as though they were value-laden objects rather than neutral tools. This is done by focusing on the similarity between computers and income, because income is also distributed by organizations and is generally valued positively. The literature on organizational symbols is reviewed and evidence of the value attached to computers is presented. Previous research on income ine

This is a series of treatment stages where at the end of each stage, the care team use the patient’s current condition to decide whether the treatment moves to the next stage, continues in the treatment stage, or moves to an unanticipated stage.

Full text

Abstract:

<p>This thesis presents a new method for detection of complex curvatures such as corners, circles, and star patterns. The method is based on a second degree local polynomial model applied to a local orientation description in double angle representation. The theory of rotational symmetries is used to compute curvature responses from the parameters of the polynomial model. The responses are made more selective using a scheme of inhibition between different symmetry models. These symmetries can serve as feature points at a high abstraction level for use in hierarchical matching structures

Firstly, the local orientation is estimated and represented with a vector field equivalent description. Secondly, the local curvature is estimated from the orientation description.

Perceptually-seductive technology (PST) is introduced as a way of designing IT environments that can help support everyday creativity.

Everyday creativity is characterised as the combination of novel solutions in addressing everyday problems, and learning, indicating endurance over time.
