HadioFS: Improve the Performance of HDFS by Off-loading I/O to ADIOS 

Li, Xiaobing (2013-08-21)
Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) is the underlying storage for the whole Hadoop stack, which includes MapReduce, HBase, Hive, Pig, etc. Because of its robustness and portability, HDFS has been widely adopted, often ...

Hamilton Cycles In Multipartite Graphs With Two Associative Classes 

Demir , Mustafa (2019-04-17)
In this dissertation, the following two problems are considered: the embedding problem of when a k-edge-coloring of a multipartite graph G can be embedded into a Hamilton decomposition of multipartite graph H containing ...

Hamilton Decompositions of Graphs with Primitive Complements 

Ozkan, Sibel (2007-05-15)
A graph G is a pair (V, E) where V is the set of vertices(or nodes) and E is the set of edges connecting the vertices. A graph is called k-regular, if all of its vertices are incident with k edges. A k-factor of a graph G ...

Hamiltonian Decompositions of Complete Multipartite Graphs with Specified Leaves 

McCauley, Laura (2011-05-05)
For any 2-regular spanning subgraph G and H of the complete multipartite graph K with p parts each of size m, conditions are found which guarantee the existence of a 2-factorization of K or of K - I (for some 1-factor ...

Hardware Acceleration for Pedestrian Dead Reckoning in Embedded Systems 

Johnston, Benjimen (2022-04-25)
Hardware acceleration within embedded systems can potentially allow algorithms to meet real time requirements in devices where it was previously impossible. Though many algorithms have been developed targeting embedded ...

Hardware Testbed for Collaborative Robotics using Wireless Communication 

Wilson, Christopher (2009-08-14)
Collaborating mobile robots equipped with WiFi transceivers are configured as a mobile ad-hoc network. Search and rescue algorithms are developed to take advantage of the distributed processing capability inherent to ...

A Hardware-Software Processor Architecture using Pipeline Stalls for Leakage Power Management 

Sheth, Khushbooben (2009-05-15)
In recent years, power consumption has become a critical design concern for many VLSI systems. Nowhere is this truer than for portable, battery-operated applications, where power consumption has perhaps superseded speed ...

Hardy space associated with flag-type singular integrals of three parameters 

Long, Yang (2020-07-21)  ETD File Embargoed
The main purpose of this thesis is to establish a Hardy space theory associated with the flag-type singular integrals on Euclidean space. This theory is a continuation of those the classical one parameter, product setting ...

Harnessing the Capacity of PGPR With or Without AMF for Improved Plant Use Efficiency of Chemical Fertilizers and Organic Manure 

Adesemoye, Anthony (2009-05-15)
The basis for the application of fertilizers (manure and chemical) is to make up for soil nutrient deficiencies and maintain soil fertility towards improved crop yield. Fertilizers could exacerbate environmental problems ...

Harnessing visual context information to improve face identification accuracy and explainability 

Phan, Hai (2024-05-08)
Face identification (FI) is ubiquitous and drives many high-stake decisions made by the law enforcement. A common FI approach compares two images by taking the cosine similar- ity between their image embeddings. Yet, such ...
