TCP offload through connection handoff
TCP offload is a technique to improve TCP/IP networking performance of a network computer system by moving (parts of) TCP processing from the host processor to the network interface. There are several ways to achieve offload. The typical full offload moves all TCP functionalities to the network …

Enhancing Mobile Devices through Code Offload
… and battery-backed operation. Opportunistic offloading of computation from a mobile device to remote server infrastructure (i.e., "code offload") offers a promising way to overcome these constraints and to expand the set of applications</p><p>(i.e., "apps") that can run on …

Cutting the datacenter tax in heterogeneous systems: a coherence-spectrum approach
… into a control plane and a data plane. By offloading repetitive, CPU-intensive data-plane functions via RDMA to a non-coherent SmartNIC, Styx reduces host CPU cycle consumption and alleviates cache pollution, thereby lowering the memory tax in practice. Second, we investigate a coherent …

The biomechanical changes during sport-specific tasks and different commercially available footwear in individuals following meniscectomy
… different footwear have an influence to aid in offloading the knee. To develop a robust and reliable test protocol for the investigation of the biomechanical outcomes in individuals following meniscectomy, a repeatability study was performed, which enabled the development of a protocol that was …

An Economic Model of Subscriber Offloading Between Mobile Network Operators and a WLAN Operator
… between the two parties for the purpose of offloading cellular data traffic to WLANs in a way that is economically beneficial to all involved. This thesis presents a model of such a relationship, in which the SSO sets a strategic offloading price per subscriber and several MNOs can choose …

Converged video delivery over heterogeneous networks
… and backhaul infrastructure upgrades. Wi-Fi offload is one such promising solution as it addresses the congestion problem where it is most severe because of data consumption by users using streaming video. Cellular spectrum is a scarce and expensive resource for operators, and by allowing …

GePSeA: A General-Purpose Software Acceleration Framework for Lightweight Task Offloading
… portions of these codes that are amenable for offloading and map them to hardware accelerators. However, offloading such tasks to specialized hardware accelerators is non-trivial. Furthermore, these accelerators can add significant cost to a computing system. Consequently, this thesis proposes …

Material transformation designing shape changing interfaces enabled by programmable material anisotropy
… in the actuated materials, we can partially offload the shape-changing control from actuators (digital) to the material itself (analogue), in order to achieve expressive transformations that current modularized actuation system cannot easily provide. The implementation of this thesis will be …

Exploring eBPF Capabilities with Hardware Acceleration on FPGAs for High-Performance Networking
… FPGA-based solutions offer a powerful way to offload and accelerate data processing. Their reconfigurability, parallelism, and fine-grained control make them well-suited not only for meeting performance needs but also for being modified to ensure compatibility with new releases. This thesis …

Validation Testing of a Synthetic Spine and Upgraded Protocol for a Biomechanical Evaluation of a Lumbar Spinal Orthosis
… of the belts separated the belts in order to offload the lumbar spine. DMO4 reduced the side profile, reduced the component count by half, and redesigned the torso belt to be more conforming to patient anatomy.DMO4 was then evaluated with the low back support test protocol that was set to …

Enhancing HPC on Virtual Systems in Clouds through Optimizing Virtual Overlay Networks
… cut-through data forwarding, and virtual TCP offload. These optimizations improve the latency and bandwidth of the overlay network on 10 Gbps Ethernet and InfiniBand interconnects, resulting in near-native performance for a wide range of microbenchmarks and MPI application benchmarks.

Joint Task Offloading and Resource Allocation for Mobile Cloud with Computing Access Point
… to improve user experience. Mobile users can offload tasks to the cloud, using abundant cloud resources to help them gather, store, and process data. In this dissertation, we consider a general three-tier multi-user MCC system consisting of mobile users, a computing access point (CAP), and a …

Essays on Finance and Climate Risk
… the government flood insurer. I find that banks offload flood risk to the government through flood insurance contracts, and to households through higher required down payments. This credit rationing shifts the composition of mortgages in flood zones towards richer and higher credit quality …
