Software support for experience sampling
… two is difficult. In this thesis, we describe a software solution that addresses the logistical issues of conducting affective computing field studies and we also describe an evaluation of the software using a field study. Based on the results of our study, we found that a software solution can …

Development of computer software support for interpretive structural modelling
Interpretive Structural Modelling is a computer-driven method for dealing with complexity, by allowing individuals or groups to interpret the inter-relationships between different aspects or elements of a problem. In doing this interpretation, the elements are structured, and from this structuring, …

Architectural and Software Support for Executing Numerical Applications on High Performance Computers
Numerical applications require large amounts of computing power. Although shared memory multiprocessors provide a cost-effective platform for parallel execution of numerical programs, parallel processing has not delivered the expected performance on these machines. There are two crucial steps in …

Supporting design: a computational theory of design and its implementation in a software support tool
… A theoretical framework is developed that supports the refinement of design from high-level concepts through implementation. This framework includes a computational model that is shown to be completely general (Turing-equivalent). Therefore, the theory and model are suitable for …

Kill switch design pattern for microservice architectures on internet of things devices
… notoriously insecure due to loss of continued software support. To help prevent this, we propose the ‘kill switch’ pattern. By defining operation levels for microservice-based virtualized application components and their respective communication paths, application functionality can be …

A hardware acceleration technique for gradient descent and conjugate gradient
… descent and other similar algorithms. To support this architecture, we also present a sparse matrix-vector storage format, and software support for utilizing the format, so that it can be e ciently mapped onto hardware which is also well suited for dense operations. We show that the …

A shared-memory multiprocessor system using the raw tiled architecture
… in which basic functionality is implemented in software. To demonstrate the flexibility of this scheme, I implement a shared memory system on Raw, a tiled multiprocessor. A traditional directory-based cache coherence system is used. The directories are fully resident on several tiles, and the …

Making non-volatile memory programmable
… must be made at both the hardware and software level to support persistent applications. Currently, software support for NVM places too high of a burden on the developer, introducing many opportunities for mistakes while also being too rigid for compiler optimizations. Likewise, at the …

The Development of a High-Performance Distributed Battery Management System for Large Lithium Ion Packs
… design has many great features, lack of full software support makes many of the subsystems dependent on user interaction to use. As a result, the design is not fully complete. Additionally, last minute design changes on the final revision resulted in detrimental effects to the accuracy of many …

Performance Measurement and Support Software for the Message-Driven Model on Multiprocessors
… of multiprocessors and multicomputers, and their software support. We propose to evaluate some aspects of the usefulness of the message-driven model of computation for parallel programming. For certain scientific SPMD programs that exhibit a substantial amount of idle time, it will be shown that …
