This dissertation compares and contrasts large-scale optimization algorithms in the use of variational and sequential data assimilation on two novel problems chosen to highlight the challenges in non-linear and non-smooth data...
Message Passing Interface (MPI) is broadly used in parallel applications. As High Performance Computing (HPC) systems become massively parallel, the efficiency of communication among processes has become more critical. Since the birth of...
With the popularity of microprocessors and scale-out system architectures, many large-scale high-performance computing (HPC) systems are built from a collection of compute servers, with an identical set of resources such as CPU, memory, ...
Spatial datasets are becoming increasingly more common over the recent decades. Rapid devel- opments in technology has brought an abundance of information and data. Big spatial datasets produce many computational challenges. In this...
Nonstationary nonparametric densities occur naturally including applications such as monitoring the amount of toxins in the air and in monitoring internet streaming data. Progress has been made in estimating these densities, but there is...
Statistical Process Control (SPC) tools are popular for monitoring system performance. SPC tools usually monitor the changes of the behavior of a sequence of noisy observations, called profiles, to validate whether the process of...
This study identifies the major contributing factors in estimating whitecap coverage globally from satellite observations. Power law functions for estimating both the active and total whitecap coverage from in situ observations are...
Nonparametric statistical methods can refer a wide variety of techniques. In this dissertation, we focus on two problems in statistics which are common applications of nonparametric statistics. The main body of the dissertation focuses...
As the world is moving towards exascale computing, interconnect networks are becoming more and more important because of their omnipresent use in high performance computing systems and in large scale data centers. The performance of an...
