Abstract:
Analysis and proper design of power distribution networks (PDNs) are critical steps in developing modern electronic systems. Parallel-plate structures with vias are the core components of PDN configuration at any scale of system implementation from chip to package and printed circuit board. Voltage fluctuations induced by vias with carrying time-varying currents are interpreted as power/ground noise. In this thesis, this type of noise is quantified by two fast prediction methods, i.e. using radial transmission line theory and resonant cavity analysis. A number PDN structures contai

While the benefits of analysing social networks within the wider humanities are becoming more accepted, very little work of this kind has been done in medieval studies.

Focusing on the later medieval world (in particular c.1300-1520), but also drawing on parallel evidence from the modern day, it demonstrates how the paradigm of ‘network’ allows a more nuanced reading of, predominantly literary, historical moments, which in turn reveals a deeper understandi

Abstract:
This dissertation examines the hitherto neglected role foreign, and specifically German, bankers played in the Chinese economy and the history of modern economic globalisation in China during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. By following the history of the German Deutsch-Asiatische Bank (DAB) during the last two decades of the Qing dynasty and the first years of the Chinese republic, this dissertation shows how the interaction between foreign bankers and Chinese officials, bankers and entrepreneurs led to the rapid internationalisation of Chinese finance, both in terms of public finance

Abstract:
This thesis examines the networks involved in the production of the wardrobe of Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester (1532/3-1588). It is clearly demonstrated that Leicester’s dress placed him alongside his contemporaries within the nobility. A successful and well functioning wardrobe network was crucial to achieving the required standard of dress. Establishing the identity of the individual members of the network enables the further examination of each person’s role within the network, and in dressing Leicester. Comprised of English masters embedded in their livery company politics and punctuated

Les réseaux de neurones connaissent un grand succès pratique, mais les outils théoriques pour les analyser sont encore souvent limités à des situations simples qui ne reflètent pas toute la complexité des cas pratiques d'intérêts. Cette thèse vise à réduire cet écart en rendant les outils théoriques plus concrets. Le premier axe de recherche concerne la généralisation : un réseau donné pourra-t-il bien se comporter sur des données jamais vues auparavant ? Ce travail améliore les garanties de généralisation basées sur la norme de chemins, les rendant applicables à des réseaux ReLU incluant du p
