Title

Memory Efficient Scheduling for Multicore Real-time Systems

Supervisor

Rodolfo Pellizzoni

Abstract

Modern real-time systems are becoming increasingly complex and requiring significant computational power to meet their demands. Since the increase in uniprocessor speed has slowed down in the last decade, multicore processors are now the preferred way to supply the increased performance demand of real-time systems.

Title

Electronically Tunable Filters

Supervisor

Raafat Mansour

Abstract

Microwave filters are essential building blocks in communications systems. As the communications industry evolves, smaller and more flexible filters with a high quality factor (high-Q) are in great demand. The deployment of tunability and reconfigurability in the designing of microwave filters provides greater system flexibility as well as economic benefits.

Title

A Graph-Transformation Modelling Framework for Supervisory Control

Supervisor

John Thistle

Abstract

Formal design methodologies have the potential to accelerate the development and increase the reliability of supervisory controllers designed within industry. One promising design framework which has been shown to shown to do so is known as supervisory control synthesis (SCS).
