A unified decision analysis framework for robust system design evaluation in the face of uncertainty
Some engineered systems now in use are not adequately meeting the needs for which they were developed, nor are they very cost-effective in terms of consumer utilization. Many problems associated with unsatisfactory system performance and high life-cycle cost are the direct result of decisions made …

Characterization and Engineering of Error Statistics for Reliable Computation
… of nanoscale circuits, employing these for designing robust systems, and engineering error-statistics to enhance the performance of various robust design techniques. A simple additive error model is presented for arithmetic computations. The proposed error model is shown to be a strong …

Heterogeneous machine learning with decentralized data
… data distribution for improved performance? (P3) Robust system design: How can we ensure robustness during both training and adaptation, preventing performance degradation caused by random failures or malicious attacks? To address (P1), we develop client clustering algorithms that enable knowledge …

Estimation-theoretic framework for robust and energy-efficient system design
… may fail to produce the gains required by future systems. It may be desirable to allow occasional hardware errors for the sake of power savings; however, this trade-off must be done without adversely impacting the end-user experience. Many applications in signal processing, communications, and …

Behavioural Demand Response for Future Smart Homes: Investigation of Demand Response Strategies for Future Smart Homes that Account for Consumer Comfort, Behaviour and Cybersecurity
… Investigation towards ensuring a secure and robust system design. The key source of information that enhances this work is obtained from data on historical user behavior which can be stored within a smart controller installed in the home and optimised using genetic algorithm implemented on …

Dealing with variability in the design, planning and evaluation of Healthcare inpatient units: a modeling methodology for patient dependency variations.
… demand and high variability in healthcare systems. These system’s variations need to be considered whilst at the same time making efficient use of the systems’ resources. Patient dependency fluctuation, which makes determining the level of adequate staffing highly complex, is among the …
