High Speed

As big data processing and cloud computing continue to grow exponentially, more than 85% of global data traffic has remained within data centers. A significant part of communication in datacenters, including rack-to-rack, rack-to-server, and building-to-building, is based on sho…

Optical wireless communications (OWC) is an important research area that promises to mitigate some problems currently existing in radio frequency based systems, such as shortage of radio frequency spectrum, interference and necessity of transmission at very high data rates. Opti…

The field of optics and photonics enables several technologies including communication, bioimaging, spectroscopy, Ladars, microwave photonics and data processing [1-139]. The ability to use and manipulate large amounts of data is transforming many vital areas of society. The hig…

High-speed milling (HSM) provides an efficient method for accurate discrete part fabrication. However, successful implementation requires the selection of appropriate operating parameters. Balancing the multiple process requirements, including high material removal rate, maximum…

In this thesis we discuss the design and implementation of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) applications in a standard digital CMOS technology. The aim is to fulfill a throughput requirement with lowest possible power consumption. As a case study a frequency selective filter is i…
