Abstract:

Clouds are powerful computer centers that provide computing and storage facilities that can be remotely accessed. The flexibility and cost-efficiency offered by clouds have made them very popular for business and web applications. The use of clouds is now being extended to safety-critical applications such as factories. However, cloud services do not provide time predictability which creates a hassle for such time-sensitive applications. Moreover, delays in the data communication between clouds and the devices the clouds control are unpredictable. Therefore, to increase predictability an inter

Abstract:

The uncertainty in the determination of the momentum and scalar fluxes remains one of the main obstacles to accurate numerical forecasts in low to moderate wind conditions. For example, latent heat fluxes computed from data using direct covariance and bulk aerodynamic methods show that there is good agreement in unstable conditions when the latent heat flux values are generally positive. However, the agreement is relatively poor in stable conditions, particularly when the moisture flux is directed downward. If the direct covariance measurements are indeed accurate, then they clearly indic

Two process regimes were investigated; an ALD regime, where the precursor gases are fully separated by long purging steps and a pulsed-CVD regime, where short purge times allow for continuous reactions. Both process regimes were analysed at deposition temperatures from 100 – 250°C and showed a dec

The aim of this thesis is to provide an in-depth investigation of zinc tin oxide, Zn1-xSnxOy or ZTO, grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD) as a buffer layer in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells. The thesis analyzes how changes in the ALD process influence the material properties of ZTO, and how these in turn affect the performance of CIGS solar cells. It is shown that ZTO grows uniformly and conformably on CIGS and that the interface between ZTO and CIGS is sharp with little or no interdiffusion between the layers.

They represent a flexible and deployable approach for applications to obtain new network semantics without modification of the underlying network, but they suffer from efficiency concerns. This thesis presents two new primitives for implementation in the network layer (i.e., the routers of the physical network). These

Abstract:

This thesis presents the novel application of microwave technology to the process of additive layer manufacturing (ALM). A particle size sensor, based on microwave cavity perturbation, is described and subsequently demonstrated by the measurement of the complex permeability of a series of Titanium powders. The results are compared with existing theory and finite element simulations of metallic powders. The ability to discern changing particle size distributions is important in ensuring the reliable operation of selective laser melting machines but, to remain industrially relevant, it is vital

Le dépôt de couche atomique (ALD) est devenu une technique essentielle de dépôt en phase vapeur de couches minces pour de nombreuses applications. La demande croissante de composants électroniques et de matériaux nanostructurés a fait de gls{ald} l'un des processus de fabrication clés du marché des nanotechnologies.Dans ce travail, nous présentons de nouveaux matériaux nanostructurés pouvant être utilisés comme transducteurs dans des dispositifs à biocapteurs. Ces matériaux ont été préparés en combinant gls{ald} avec des techniques "top-down" et "bottom-up" telles que la lithographie par nanos

Abstract:

This thesis concerns the Multi-layer Perceptron (MLP) model, one of a variety of neural network models that have come into wide prominence since the mid 1980s for the classification of individuals into pre-defined classes based on a vector of individual measurements. Each discipline in which the MLP model has had influence, including computing, electrical engineering and psychology, has recast the model into its own language and imbued it with its own concerns. This divergence of terminologies has made the literature somewhat impenetrable but has also led to an appreciation of other discipl

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>大氣科學研究所<br>103<br>This study investigates the influences of boundary layer (BL) processes and the environmental conditions on the maintenance of advection fog through idealized large-eddy simulations. The initial conditions were simplified from the in-situ sounding data during the fog episode at Kinmen Island. A near saturated moist layer with temperature inversion is throughout the domain, which represents the characteristics of advection fog. This kind of vertical profile of moisture can influence the effects of turbulent mixing and longwave radiative cooling at fog top. A se

Abstract:

Cloud computing has emerged in the last decade as a popular distributed computing service offered by commercial providers. Public Clouds offer pay-as-you-go access to elastic resources that can be acquired and released on-demand. Among IaaS providers, on demand Virtual Machines(VMs) give access to compute resources, and are one of the frequently used services. While these fi xed-price VMs have absolute reliability and availability, spot-priced VM offer much higher discount while being preemptible, trading-off reliability. For users running large workloads with many tasks on the Cloud, su
