Nowadays, academic researchers maintain a personal library of papers, which they would like to organize based on their needs, e.g., research, projects, or courseware. Clustering techniques are often employed to achieve this goal by grouping the document collection into different topics. Unsupervised clustering does not require any user effort but only produces one universal output with which us...

Laboratory where thesis will be done: Artiicial Intelligence Laboratory Brief Statement of the Problem: Reducing the power consumed by microprocessors is a signiicant problem. A reversible architecture is proposed which allows energy to be recovered rather than dissipated. Extensive simulations will be performed but no hardware is planned at this time. Supervision Agreement: The program outline...

Software faults and vulnerabilities continue to present significant obstacles to achieving reliable and secure software. The critical problem is that systems currently lack the capability to respond intelligently and automatically to attacks – especially attacks that exploit previously unknown vulnerabilities or are delivered by previously unseen inputs. Therefore, the goal of this thesis is to...
