Abstract:
Estimates of flows with specified probabilities are required for the design and planning of water resource projects. The design flow required could be a peak flood, a low flow, or other flows, depending on the project. Such flows can be readily estimated when there are adequate data; but this is rarely the case in Canada. A procedure is presented for estimating design flows on the basis of whatever information is available, however inadequate. It is based on the use of a compound probability distribution made up of a weighted combination of underlying distributions. The model can be specified on the basis of regional information alone, and design flows are computed from that. Other data can then be used to update the weights of the component distributions, thereby increasing the accuracy of the estimates. The procedure is illustrated with practical examples. Key words: design flows, flow estimation, floods frequency analysis, Bayesian methods.

Abstract:
General purpose microcontrollers have been used as computational elements in various spheres of technology. Because of the distinct requirements of specific application areas, however, general purpose microcontrollers are not always the best solution. There is a need for specialized processor architectures for specific application areas. This thesis discusses the design of such a specialized processor architecture targeted towards event driven sensor applications. This thesis presents an augmented multibus dataflow processor architecture and an automation framework suitable for executing a range of event driven applications in an energy efficient manner. The energy efficiency of the multibus processor architecture is demonstrated by comparing the energy usage of the architecture with that of a PIC12F675 microcontroller.

In this thesis, we propose a hybrid flow network architecture for future data center. The hybrid flow architecture has its origins in the early 1990s with studies on all-optical networks and fiber-optical computer networks. Research in optical flow switching has spanned over two decades. Our contribution to the study of all-optical networks is on the performance of hybrid flow data center networks. We compare the delay performance of hybrid flow architectures and traditional packet switched networks in future data center. We present a simplified data center traffic model, where data center traffic is categorized into mice traffic and elephant flows. The electronic packet switched architecture allows for low overhead and complexity for small transactions. However, mice traffic suffers as the size, fraction, and arrival rates of elephant flows increase. In the hybrid flow architecture, elephant flows are transmitted on an all-optical flow-switched data plane, where wavelength channels are reserved for the duration of a flow. In addition, the hybrid flow architecture allows for the dynamic allocation of optical wavelengths. In electronic packet switched networks, wavelength assignments are static, where traditional networking protocols do not consider the optical domain in routing decisions. We show that the hybrid flow architecture allows for superior delay performance compared to the electronic packet switched architecture as data rates and data volume increase in future data center networks.

Abstract:
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2012.
Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 135-136).
In this work, we explore transport layer protocol design for an optical flow-switched network. The objective of the protocol design is to guarantee the reliable delivery of data files over an all-optical end-to- end flow-switched network which is modeled as a burst-error channel. We observe that Transport Control Protocol (TCP) is not best suited for Optical Flow-Switching (OFS). Specifically, flow control and fair resource allocation through windowing in TCP are unnecessary in an OFS network. Moreover TCP has poor throughput and delay performance at high transfer rates due to window flow control and window closing with missing or dropped packets. In OFS, flows are scheduled and congestion control is performed by a scheduling algorithm. Thus, we focus on defining a more efficient transport protocol for optical flow-switched networks that is neither a modification of TCP nor derived from TCP. The main contribution of this work is to optimize the throughput and delay performance of OFS using file segmentation and reassembly, forward error-correction (FEC), and frame retransmission. We analyze the throughput and delay performance of four example transport layer protocols: the Simple Transport Protocol (STP), the Simple Transport Protocol with Interleaving (STPI), the Transport Protocol with Framing (TPF) and the Transport Protocol with Framing and Interleaving (TPFI). First, we show that a transport layer protocol without file segmentation and without interleaving and FEC (STP) results in poor throughput and delay performance and is not well suited for OFS. Instead, we found that interleaving across a large file (STPI) results in the best theoretical delay performance, though the large code lengths and interleaver sizes in this scheme will be hard to implement. Also, in the unlikely case that a file experiences an uncorrectable error, STPI requires extra network resources equal to that of an entire transaction for file retransmission and adds to the delay of the transaction significantly. For the above reason, we propose the segmentation of a file into large frames combined with FEC, interleaving, and retransmission of erroneous frames (TPFI) as the protocol of choice for an OFS network. In TPFI, interleaving combined with FEC and frame retransmission allows a file to be segmented into large frames (>100 Mbits). In addition, TPFI also allows for fewer processing and file segmentation and reassembly overhead compared with a transport layer protocol that does not include interleaving and FEC (TPF).

Abstract:
Improved process technology has resulted in the integration of computing elements into multiple application areas. General purpose micro-controllers are designed to assist in this integration through a flexible design. The application areas, however, are so diverse in nature that the general purpose micro-controllers may not provide a suitable abstraction for all classes of applications. There is a need for specially designed architectures in application areas where the general purpose micro-controllers suffer from inefficiencies. This thesis focuses in the design of a processor architecture that provides a suitable design abstraction for a class of periodic, event-driven embedded applications such as sensor-monitoring systems. The design principles of the processor architecture are focused on the target application requirements, which are identified as event-driven nature with concurrent task execution and deterministic timing behavior. Additionally, to reduce the design complexity of applications on this novel architecture, an automation framework has been implemented. This thesis presents the design of the processor architecture and the automation framework explaining the suitability of the designed architecture for the target applications. The energy use of the novel architecture is compared with that of PIC12F675 micro-controller to demonstrate the energy-efficiency of the designed architecture.

Full text
Abstract:
Down-hole injection and sampling equipment was designed and constructed in order to perform diverging-flow tracer tests. The tests were conducted at a field site about 8 km southeast of Oracle, Arizona, as part of a project sponsored by the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission to study mass transport of fluids in saturated, fractured granite. The tracer injection system was designed to provide a steady flow of water or tracer solution to a packed off interval of the borehole and allow for monitoring of down-hole tracer concentration and pressure in the injection interval. The sampling system was designed to collect small volume samples from multiple points in an adjacent borehole. Field operation of the equipment demonstrated the importance of prior knowledge of the location of interconnecting fractures before tracer testing and the need for down-hole mixing of the tracer solution in the injection interval. The field tests were designed to provide data that could me analyzed to provide estimates of dispersivity and porosity of the fractured rock. Although analysis of the data is beyond the scope of this thesis, the detailed data are presented in four appendices.

Abstract:
Blowing snow accounts for a large part of Illinois Department of Transportation’s total winter maintenance expenditures. This project aims to develop recommendations on the design and placement of living snow fences (LSFs) to minimize snowdrift on Illinois highways. The research team examined historical IDOT data for resource expenditures, conducted a literature review and survey of northern agencies, developed and validated a numerical model, field tested selected LSFs, and used a model to assist LSF design. Field testing revealed that the proper snow fence setback distance should consider the local prevailing winter weather conditions, and snow fences within the right-of-way could still be beneficial to agencies. A series of numerical simulations of flow around porous fences were performed using Flow-3D, a computational fluid dynamics software. The results of the simulations of the validated model were employed to develop design guidelines for siting LSFs on flat terrain and for those with mild slopes (< 15° from horizontal). Guidance is provided for determining fence setback, wind characteristics, fence orientation, as well as fence height and porosity. Fences comprised of multiple rows are also addressed. For sites with embankments with steeper slopes, guidelines are provided that include a fence at the base and one or more fence on the embankment. The design procedure can use the available right-of-way at a site to determine the appropriate fence characteristics (e.g., height and porosity) to prevent snow deposition on the road. The procedure developed in this work provides an alternative that uses available setback to design the fence. This approach does not consider snow transport over an entire season and may be less effective in years with several large snowfall events, very large single events, or a sequence of small events with little snowmelt in between. However, this procedure is expected to be effective for more frequent snowfall events such as those that occurred over the field-monitoring period. Recommendations were made to facilitate the implementation of research results by IDOT. The recommendations include a proposed process flow for establishing LSFs for Illinois highways, LSF siting and design guidelines (along with a list of suitable plant species for LSFs), as well as other implementation considerations and identified research needs.

Full text
Abstract:
The Journey to El Yunque program was designed using the cognitive apprenticeship model. Students analyze the same data that scientists in the rainforest use for their research, while at the same time, covering all of the national middle school ecology standards. In this study we seek to build a framework that integrates design-based research methods with traditional evaluation. The resulting enactment of the curriculum provides formative feedback about the curriculum as well as about the design model itself. An ecology assessment was developed using publicly released state assessment items. A quasiexperimental design study was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the beta version of the program. The results show that Journey to El Yunque was more effective at helping students learn population dynamics, while the traditional ecology curriculum was more effective at helping students understand energy flow definitions. This difference in performance is consistent with the underlying design based on the cognitive apprenticeship model.
