Woven Threads
This thesis investigates the translation of weaving principles into architectural form, framed through the theoretical lens of Gottfried Semper. Semper’s framework, which focuses on the ideas of tectonics and narrative, provides a foundation for understanding how craft can conceptualise …

Analyzing Threads for Shared Memory Consistency
The analysis techniques described are used in the implementation of a virtual machine that guarantees sequentially consistent execution of Java bytecodes. This implementation is used to show the effectiveness of our analysis algorithms. On many benchmark programs, the performance of programs on our …

Kimono threads: unraveling ontologies, epistemologies, and ethics
What is kimono? How do we know what we know about kimono, and whose voices matter? Who should (or should not) wear kimono? Repeated protests, social media engagement, and boycotts have underscored the exigent nature of these divisive questions, particularly for those interested in fashion, …

Game of threads: Enabling asynchronous poisoning attacks
… and scalability. In asynchronous training, many threads share and update the model in a racy fashion to avoid inter-thread synchronization. This work studies the security implications of these codes by introducing asynchronous poisoning attacks. Our attack influences training outcome---e.g., …

Developing Better Models for Dialogue Threads and Responses
… dialogue disentanglement. Specifically, multiple threads of discussions in the same dialogue are disentangled and organized to single topic threads. This research can help users to more easily follow up on the topics discussed in complex dialogues. We propose a hierarchical model by considering …

Threads Of Support: Mentoring Of Online Doctoral Students
… students. The findings in the study provided threads for five emergent themes: Theme 1, Development of Trust; Theme 2, Experience as a Doctoral Student; Theme 3, Mentoring Is Challenging; Theme 4, Relationship Building; and Theme 5, Varying Types of Communication. Recommendations surfaced from …

Failure detection and repair of threads in CTAS
Reliable, error-free software is hard to come by, and this is especially true for newer, larger, or more complex programs. CTAS, an air traffic control tool, falls into this category, making it a good candidate for research on error compensation. Specifically, this thesis addresses the issue of …

Collaborative Scheduling and Synchronization of Distributable Real-Time Threads
… and synchronization of distributable real-time threads --- Real-Time CORBA's first-class abstraction for programming real-time, multi-node sequential behaviors. Distributable real-time threads can be scheduled, broadly, using two paradigms: node independent scheduling, in which nodes …

From Software Threads to Parallel Hardware with LegUp High-level Synthesis
… compiling a multi-threaded program with Pthreads and OpenMP to parallel hardware accelerators that operate concurrently within a hardware-only or a processor-accelerator hybrid system. In the context of parallel hardware, we investigate architectural and memory optimizations that help to …

High Performance Architecture using Speculative Threads and Dynamic Memory Management Hardware
With the advances in very large scale integration (VLSI) technology, hundreds of billions of transistors can be packed into a single chip. With the increased hardware budget, how to take advantage of available hardware resources becomes an important research area. Some researchers have shifted from …

Nonlinear evolution of annular layers and liquid threads in electric fields
… of viscous perfectly conducting liquid jets or threads under the action of a radial electric field are studied theoretically and numerically here. The field is generated by a potential difference between the jet surface and a concentrically placed electrode of given radius. A long-wave nonlinear …

Mechanics of the hysteretic large strain behavior of mussel byssus threads
… This study investigates mussel byssal threads, the attachment appendage of aquatic mussels, which are here shown to exhibit a remarkable ability to withstand very large resilient yet dissipative stretches (A > 4) without failing. These threads were dissected into separate regions: …

Using surface topography to re-analyze gradients in mussel byssal threads
… in the collagenous core fiber of mussel byssal threads. Mussel byssal threads have a natural, stiff, thin outer coating that is chemically and mechanically distinct from the softer collagenous core making them a prime subject for wrinkling analysis. Past work in the area has focused on full …

Raveling the Threads of Understanding: Reframing Mathematics Anxiety through Collaborative Professional Learning
This study investigates how collaborative professional learning communities (PLCs) can support teachers in evolving their understanding of mathematics anxiety. Conducted in a school serving a diverse student population, the research engaged a cohort of teachers in five PLC sessions, complemented by …

The urban weave: Interlacing intangible threads to form a cohesive hybridized urban fabric
The objective is to find tangible ways of seamlessly tying informal systems within formal systems in an urban space that will result in a paradigm shift of the way informality is viewed by the public. The intervention seeks to find a balance between the creativity of emergence and the stability of …
