Body measurements, including weight and height, are key indicators of health. Being able to visually assess body measurements reliably is a step towards increased awareness of overweight and obesity and is thus important for public health. Nevertheless it ...
DC-DC converters based on Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) have been developed in this doctoral work for the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) experiments at CERN. They step down the voltage from a 2.5 V line and supply a load ...
We present a comparison between approximated methods for the construction of mock catalogues based on the halo-bias mapping technique. To this end, we use as reference a high-resolution N-body simulation of 38403 dark matter particles on a 400 h(-1) Mpc cu ...
Gallium Nitride (GaN) and all III-Nitride compounds have revolutionized the world with the development of the blue light emitting diode (LED). In addition, GaN-based epi-structures, such as AlGaN/GaN, enable the fabrication of high electron mobility transi ...
In this paper, we demonstrate that the information encoded in one single (sufficiently large) N-body simulation can be used to reproduce arbitrary numbers of halo catalogues, using approximated realizations of dark matter density fields with different init ...
Resistive Random Access Memories (ReRAMs) have been researched intensively in the last past decades as a promising alternatives technology for the next-generation non-volatile memory (NVM) devices. ReRAMâ s excellent performance properties such as high sw ...
Voltage regulator modules are dc-dc converters that power modern microprocessors. They must exhibit a fast dynamic response, in order to achieve satisfactory regulation performance in spite of the rapid load current variations. The pulsewidth modulator is ...
Utilization of the Integrated Gate Commutated Thyristor as a semiconductor switch in the Series Resonant Converter for isolated medium voltage DC-DC conversion offers an opportunity for high conversion efficiency while operating at the high switching frequ ...
Quasi two-level operation of voltage source converters, intended to operate either within high/medium voltage DC networks or low output frequency applications, has caught the attention of both academia and industry. Sequential insertion of the so-called su ...
Adaptive data analysis is known to introduce bias in reported measurements. Russo and Zou [1] recently introduced an information-theoretic framework to study this problem. Herein, this framework is adopted and new dependence measures are introduced to boun ...
News entities must select and filter the coverage they broadcast through their respective channels since the set of world events is too large to be treated exhaustively. The subjective nature of this filtering induces biases due to, among other things, res ...
In this paper we present proofs for the new biases in RC4 which were experimentally found and listed out (without theoretical justifi- cations and proofs) in a paper by Vanhoef et al. in USENIX 2015. Their purpose was to exploit the vulnerabilities of RC4 ...
