Computer chess; Chess--Computer programs; Games and technology; Computer networks--Security measures
Cheating in chess can take many forms and has existed almost as long as the game itself. The advent of computers has introduced a new form of cheating into the game. Thanks to the computational power of modern-day computers, a player can use a...
Longitudinal studies occupy an important role in scientific researches and clinical trials. When taking the analysis of longitudinal data, investigators are often confronted with missing data which will produce potential biases, even in...
This thesis will present various methods of trajectory generation for various types of mobile robots. Then it will progress to evaluating Robot Operating Systems (ROS’s) that can be used to control and simulate mobile robots, and it will explain...
This thesis will focus on the topic of Selfish Nodes within a Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANET), specifically sensor networks due to their lower power and bandwidth. The approach used is a reputation based algorithm to isolate the selfish nodes from...
Electronic communication is gradually becoming a larger part of today's
society. This type of communication not only encompasses ways people stay in
touch, but also how people manage or share their personal data. As this type of
communication...
We formulate an integro-difference model to predict the growth and spatial
spread of a perennial plant population with an age-structured seed bank. We allow
the seeds in the bank to be of any age, producing an infinite system of equations.
The...
In a nonlocally compact Polish abelian group G, we will consider two notions of smallness of subsets of G. Those subsets of G which are topologically small are said to be meager, and those which are measure-theoretically small are Haar null. We...
The design of this thesis is to re-engineer the Enigma cipher to make it a viable, secure cipher for use on current computers. The goal is to create a cipher based on an antiquated mechanical cryptography device, the Enigma Machine, in software and...

Crossover design is a type of longitudinal study with each subject receiving different treatments in different time periods. It has been used frequently in the pharmaceutical industry and other medical fields to investigate the safety and efficacy...
The purpose of this research is to understand how the process parameters surrounding the Direct Metal Deposition (DMD) process affect the properties of the deposition. The powder used in this research is pre-alloyed titanium powder (Ti-6Al-4V),...

This thesis describes a method of gaining better
performance from the Blowfish cryptographic algorithm using
GPU acceleration via CUDA (Compute Unified Device
Architecture). It is an attempt to resolve the issue of
the cryptographic process taking...
