Abstract:
The Internet is a fundamental infrastructure in modern life, supporting many different communication services. One of the most critical properties of the Internet is its ability to recover from failures, such as link or equipment failure. The goal of network resilience heavily influenced the design of the Internet, leading to the use of distributed routing protocols. While distributed algorithms largely solve the issue of network resilience, other concerns remain. A significant concern is network management, as it is a complex and error-prone process.

Today, there is a growing number of buildings in a neighborhood and business parks that are utilizing renewable energy generation, to reduce their electric bill and carbon footprint. The most current way of implementing a renewable energy generation is to use solar panels or a windmill to generate power; then use a charge controller connected to a battery bank to store power. Once stored, the user can then access a clean source of power from these batteries instead of the main power grid.

The growing market of portable devices and smart wearables has contributed to innovation and development of systems with longer battery-life. While Near Threshold Computing (NTC) systems address the need for longer battery-life, they have certain limitations. NTC systems are prone to be significantly affected by variations in the fabrication process, commonly called process variation (PV). This dissertation explores an intriguing effect of PV, called choke points. Choke points are especially important due to their multifarious influence on the functional correctness of an NTC system.

This study investigates the Internet's resilience to instabilities caused by the mismatch of its topological state and routing information.

This novel idea is based in the mathematical concept of complete order, which is a binary relation that is irreflexive, asymmetric, transitive and complete. More important is the fact that compl

With the rapid development of multimedia technology, video transmission over unreliable channels like Internet and wireless networks, is widely used.

Consequently, the quality of the received video at the decoder may degrade significantly. In order to improve the quality of the received video, several error resilient methods have been proposed.

Abstract:
According to Cisco's latest forecast, two-thirds of the world's mobile data traffic and 62 percent of the consumer Internet traffic will be video data by the end of 2016. However, the wireless networks and Internet are unreliable, where the video traffic may undergo packet loss and delay. Thus robust video streaming over unreliable networks, i.e., Internet, wireless networks, is of great importance in facing this challenge. Specifically, for the real-time interactive video streaming applications, such as video conference and video telephony, the allowed end-to-end delay is limited, which makes

Abstract:
In this dissertation, applications of thermodynamics at the macroscopic and quantum levels of description are developed. Within the macroscopic level, an upper-level Sustainability Assessment Framework (SAF) is proposed for evaluating the sustainable and resilient synthesis/design and operation of sets of small renewable and non-renewable energy production technologies coupled to power production transmission and distribution networks via microgrids. The upper-level SAF is developed in accord with the four pillars of sustainability, i.e., economic, environmental, technical and social. A supers

Abstract:
Error Resilient Coding tools are the methods to avoid or reduce the amount of corruption in video by altering the encoding algorithm. One of them is Flexible Macroblock Ordering (FMO) which provides us with ordering macroblocks of the frames flexibly. Six of them have definite ordering pattern and the last one, called explicit type, can get any order. In this thesis two explicit type algorithms, one of which is new, are explained and the performance of different FMO types in wired and wireless communication are evaluated. The first algorithm separates the important blocks into separate packet

Abstract:
This thesis presents the study and development of distinct data-driven techniques to support event detection, fault location, and resilience assessment towards enhancements in power systems. It is divided in three main parts as follows. The first part investigates improvements in power system monitoring and event detection methods with focus on dimensionality reduction techniques in wide-area monitoring systems. The second part focuses on contributions to fault location tasks in power distribution networks, relying on information about the network topology and its electrical parameters for sho
