A digital interface for wireless networks
… Hence, both these networks serve as near-optimal digital interfaces for operating the Gaussian network. The discrete network is obtained from a Gaussian network by simply quantizing the received signals and restricting transmitted signals to a certain finite precision. Since its signals are …

Analysis and Dynamic Range Enhancement of the Analog-to-Digital Interface in Multimode Radio Receivers
… counterparts by their strong reliance on digital channel filtering and demodulation which may be reprogrammed to receive different standards. In these radios, higher dynamic range is required from the analog portion, most notably, the analog-to-digital converter (ADC). This research …

On-die signal integrity monitoring of gigabit serial I/Os
… The system has a small layout, a simple digital interface, and does not require a separate sample-and--hold circuit. The final system has 15 mV minimum resolution, operates over common-mode logic signals from 1.8V to 1.4V, and accurately captures signals up to 2GHz.

Mediating for Immediacy: Text, Performance, and Dramaturgy in Multimedia Shakespeare Editions
This dissertation examines digital multimedia Shakespeare editions, a group of seven projects that combine a complete Shakespeare text (plays or poetry) with a complete performance recording (audio or video). I argue that these projects constitute a new form of edition, which uses performance to …

Mixing the library: information interaction and the DJ
Digital collections have been amassed by institutions and individuals for over two decades. Large collections are becoming increasingly available as resources for research, learning, creativity, and pleasure. However, the value of these collections can remain elusive. Systems and methods are needed …

A sudden ionospheric disturbances monitor
… device after the receiver to act as an interface between the analogue natural events and the digital interface to record data to a PC. At the implementation stage a balanced loop antenna was realised and tested for its applicability on the project and a VLF receiver was constructed to …

A continuous silent speech recognition system for AlterEgo, a silent speech interface
… recognition system for AlterEgo, a silent speech interface. By transcribing residual neurological signals sent from the brain to speech articulators during internal articulation, the system allows one to communicate without the need to speak or perform any visible movements or gestures. It is …

Programmable MIDI Instrument Controller Design: The No Strings Attached Hammer Dulcimer
Real-time digital music system design often involves the translation of formal music notation or human gestures by some input device to Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) commands which are then transmitted to an electronic music synthesizer. This thesis describes the design and …

"This is the fluffy robot that only speaks French" : language use between preschoolers, their families, and a social robot while sharing virtual toys
… absorbing all of the children's focus onto digital content, a hybrid physical and digital interface was iteratively designed and play-tested. This interface took the form of a "café table" on which the child and robot could share food. A robot was programmed to introduce itself and name …

Being Good Women: The Rise and Appeal of Femininity Among Globalist Women
… does the process of becoming an “other” across a digital and non-digital interface mean as an ethical practice? As I observed this ethical self-cultivation that necessarily, for my interlocuters, mediated between their online and offline selves, it became clear that the discourse upon which their …
