Abstract:

The objective of this thesis is to develop a theoretical understanding of computation in networked dynamical systems and demonstrate practical applications supported by the theory. We are interested in understanding how networks of locally interacting agents can be controlled to compute arbitrary functions of the initial node states. In other words, can a dynamical networked system be made to behave like a computer? In this thesis, we take steps towards answering this question with a particular model class for distributed, networked systems which can be made to compute linear transformations.

Abstract:

In the first part of this thesis, we propose a distributed consensus algorithm under multi-layer multi-group structure with communication time delays. It is proven that the consensus will be achieved in both time-varying and fixed communication delays. In the second part, we study the distributed optimization problem with a finite-time mechanism. It is shown that our distributed proportional-integral algorithm can exponentially converge to the unique global minimizer when the gain parameters satisfy the sufficient conditions. Moreover, we equip the proposed algorithm with a decentralized algor

Abstract:

Secure multi-party computation (secure MPC) has been established as the de facto paradigm for protecting privacy in distributed computation. One of the earliest secure MPC primitives is the Shamir's secret sharing (SSS) scheme. SSS has many advantages over other popular secure MPC primitives like garbled circuits (GC) -- it provides information-theoretic security guarantee, requires no complex long-integer operations, and often leads to more efficient protocols. Nonetheless, SSS receives less attention in the signal processing community because SSS requires a larger number of honest participan

Abstract:

The advent of high bandwidth fibre optic links that may be used over very large distances has lead to much research and development in the field of wide area gigabit networking. One problem that needs to be addressed is how loosely coupled distributed systems may be built over these links, allowing many computers worldwide to take part in complex calculations in order to solve "Grand Challenge" problems. The research conducted as part of this PhD has looked at the practicality of implementing a communication mechanism proposed by Craig Partridge called Late-binding Remote Procedure Calls (LbRP

Abstract:

The time-triggered architecture is becoming accepted as a means of implementing scalable, safer and more reliable solutions for distributed real-time systems. In such systems, the execution of distributed software components and the communication of messages between them take place in a fixed pattern and are scheduled in advance within a given scheduling round by a global scheduling policy. The principal obstacle in the design of time-triggered systems is the difficulty of finding the static schedule for all resources which satisfies constraints on the activities within the scheduling round, s

Abstract:

The behaviour of distributed applications can be modeled as the occurrence of events and how these events relate to each other. Event data collected according to this event model can be visualized using process-time diagrams that are constructed from a collection of traces and events. One of the main characteristics of a distributed system is the large number of events that are involved, especially in practical situations. This large number of events, and hence large process-time diagrams, make distributed-system observation difficult for the user. However, event-predicate detection, a

Multiparty computation is a computation between multiple players which want to compute a common function based on private input.

Abstract:

Load distribution problems in distributed computing networks have attracted much attention in the literature. A major objective in these studies is to distribute the processing load so as to minimize the time of processing of the entire load. In general, the processing load can be indivisible or divisible. An indivisible load has to be processed in its entirety on a single processor. On the other hand, a divisible load can be partitioned and processed on more than one processor. Divisible loads are either modularly divisible or arbitrarily divisible. Modularly divisible loads can be divided in

Abstract:

Distributed human computing techniques have been shown to be effective ways of accessing the problem-solving capabilities of a large group of anonymous individuals over the World Wide Web. They have been successfully applied to such diverse domains as computer security, biology and astronomy. The success of distributed human computing in various domains suggests that it can be utilized for complex collaborative problem solving. Thus it could be used for "machine science": utilizing machines to facilitate the vetting of disparate human hypotheses for solving scientific and engineering problems.

This work presents an alternative approach to power system computations, Graph Trace Analysis (GTA), and applies GTA to the power flow problem. A novel power flow algorithm is presented, where GTA traces are used to implement a modified Gauss-Seidel algorithm coupled with a continuation method. GTA is derived from the Generic Programming Paradigm of computer science. It uses topology iterators to move through components in a model and perform calculations. Two advantages that GTA brings are the separation of system equations from component equations and the ability to distribute calculations a

A fundamental issue in many distributed computing problems is the need for nodes to distinguish themselves from their neighbors in a process referred to as symmetry breaking. Many well-known problems such as Maximal Independent Set (MIS), t-Ruling Set, Maximal Matching, and (\Delta+1)-Coloring, belong to the class of problems that require symmetry breaking. These problems have been studied extensively in the LOCAL model, which assumes arbitrarily large message sizes, but not as much in the CONGEST and k-machine models, which assume messages of size O(log n) bits.

Shipboard power systems have different characteristics than the utility power systems. In the Shipboard power system it is crucial that the systems and equipment work at their peak performance levels. One of the most demanding aspects for simulations of the Shipboard Power Systems is to connect the device under test to a real-time simulated dynamic equivalent and in an environment with actual hardware in the Loop (HIL). The real time simulations can be achieved by using multi-distributed modeling concept, in which the global system model is distributed over several processors through a communi

Abstract:

Solid cancer tumors must recruit new blood vessels for growth and maintenance. Discovering drugs that block this tumor-induced development of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) is an important approach in cancer treatment. However, the complexity of angiogenesis and the difficulty in implementing and evaluating medical changes prevent the discovery of novel and effective new therapies. This paper presents a massively parallel computational search-based approach for the discovery of novel potential cancer treatments, using a high fidelity simulation of angiogenesis. Discovering new therapies is v
