QPE: A System For Deconstructing SQL Queries
(East Carolina University, 2023-04-26)Research on the topic of converting natural language to machine-readable code has experienced great interest over the last decade, however studies into converting machine-readable code into natural language are sparse. The ... -
Recurrence and Plasticity in Evolved Neural Controllers
(East Carolina University, 2009)Among the more important applications of evolutionary neurocontrollers is the development of systems that are able to dynamically adapt to a changing environment. While traditional approaches to control system design demand ... -
Risk Considerations in the Use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in the Construction Industry
(2016-12)The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the construction industry is swiftly growing worldwide. UAVs are changing the way construction companies do business. Contractors are increasingly using camera-mounted UAVs ... -
Runtime Monitoring On Hard Real-Time Operating Systems
(East Carolina University, 2015)This thesis will compare and evaluate different approaches in integrating runtime monitors into processes running on a hard real-time operating system. The host system is a single board computer (SBC) with a VxWorks 653 ... -
Security Analysis and Framework of Cloud Computing with Parity-Based Partially Distributed File System
(East Carolina University, 2011)Cloud computing offers massive scalability, immediate availability, and low cost services as major benefits, but as with most new technologies, it introduces new risks and vulnerabilities too. Despite the fact that different ... -
Self-Checked Metamorphic Testing of Monte Carlo Simulation
(East Carolina University, 2011)Photon propagation in biological tissues can be modeled with Monte Carlo simulations numerically. However, testing a such program is difficult due to the unknown character of the test oracles. Although approaches based on ... -
