Budhrani, Ravish (author)Classical computing has been evolving, to help solve harder problems. Following Moore’s Law the miniaturisation of transistors has helped improve performance. However, this has led to a ”Power Wall”. The clock frequency of processors have not been making the leaps predicted by Moore’s law. This is simply because the power dissipation becomes too...master thesis 2020

Zhang, Mengyu (author)Quantum microarchitecture is a key component in bridging the gap between quantum software and quantum hardware of a fully programmable quantum computer. Confronting the control problem of superconducting quantum processors, an experimental microarchitecture (QuMA) has been proposed in previous work. As the size of the target quantum chip...master thesis 2018

van Wee, Bas (author)Quantum algorithms can be described by quantum circuits which consist of quantum bits (qubits) and quantum gates. Such a circuit description assumes that any kind of interaction between qubits is possible. However, quantum chips have limited qubits connectivity only allowing, for instance, nearest-neighbor (NN) interactions. That means, qubits...master thesis 2017

Zhong, C. (author)Running quantum algorithms in a quantum machine may solve some complex problems that are intractable for even the most powerful classical computers. Quantum algorithms can be described by quantum circuits consisting of a set of qubits and a sequence of gates operating on those qubits when the quantum circuit model of computation is adopted. This...master thesis 2017

Van den Bor, J. (author)Image Processing is an emerging field: every year new applications are introduced, and these are pushing the hardware requirements. This thesis looks at the design of a hardware accelerator to accelerate several filters used in Image Processing: 2D Convolution, Census Transform, and Local Binary Patterns. At Intel, these filters are used for...master thesis 2015

Hubregtsen, T.S. (author)Big Data systems have been used for multiple years to solve problems that require scale. A framework takes care of scalability and resiliency issues, and allows the user to focus on relevant computation, in the form of map and reduce functions. In these Big Data systems, we currently see a shift from the traditional use of the Hard Disk Drive ...master thesis 2015

Rouvoet, A.J. (author), Schoute, E. (author), Booij, A.B. (author)DWARV is a C-to-VHDL compiler which can compile arbitrary C programs for a heterogeneous platform with minimal effort. Depending on the application this will imply faster execution. We give an overview of C-to-VHDL compilers. One important aspect of all software is its reliability, and we aim to assess DWARV’s reliability and the adequacy of its...bachelor thesis 2013

Ypeij, T.M. (author), Hensen, D.K.L. (author)Nowadays a lot of students have smart-phones that can be put to use for mobile learning. The TU Delft Library has come up with an idea for this which also incorporates the use of a modern technology called Near Field Communication. It is already available on the market but immature so experience has to be gained in combination with mobile...bachelor thesis 2013

Westen, H.P. (author)The Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) paradigm promises speedup at relatively low silicon area cost for software that exposes a large amount of loop level parallelism. Automatic simdization–the act of exploiting loop level parallelism by issueing SIMD instructions that operate on multiple data elements at once– remains a daunting task for...master thesis 2012

Slotema, M. (author)Hardware acceleration using recon?gurable devices is a hot research item. To facilitate this acceleration technique, also called recon?gurable computing, tools are being developed that translate High-Level Languages into Hardware Description Languages. DWARV is such a tool developed at Delft University of Technology, translating C into VHDL. The...master thesis 2012

Jimenez Villarreal, O.E. (author)With the increasing complexity of current embedded applications, and the mobility required in embedded devices, new approaches are being proposed to optimize the power and the energy consumed by an application, at higher levels of abstraction levels and in earlier stages in a design flow. However, one essential part of a structured and guided...master thesis 2011

Thomas, A. (author)IWEX stands for Invers Wavefield Extrapolation and is commonly used in seismic exploration. Niels Pörtzgen[15] showed that this technique can also be used for inspection of welds. This thesis describes two domains in which the IWEX algorithm can be calculated. The time domain which has a quantization problem and the frequency domain which is...master thesis 2009

Abbasfard, M. (author)Watermarking is the process of inserting predefined patterns into multimedia data in a way that the degradation of quality is minimized and remain at an imperceptible level. Many digital watermarking algorithms have been proposed in special and transform domains. The techniques in the spatial domain still have relatively low-bit capacity and are...master thesis 2009

Bink, J. (author)Wind tunnels are used to study airflows around objects like cars, airplanes and ice-skaters. This is done, simulating the real world, by blowing an airflow over a fixed body. In the real situation an object moves through the air, while in a wind tunnel it is the air that is moving. So a wind tunnel needs to generate an airflow. In this airflow,...master thesis 2008

Van Akkeren, R. (author), Bensdorp, S. (author), Vos, M. (author)FPGAs are easy and cheap to produce, a world of new possibilities is opened. One of those is in the area of reconfigurable computing. It is possible to extend normal CPUs with FPGAs for specific tasks, especially for those tasks which requires a lot of computational power. The Delft WorkBench is such a project. In this project, C-code is...bachelor thesis 2008
