Alexandria Will-Cole’s PhD Proposal Review

"Morphology, Magnetism, and Transport in Nanomaterials and Nanocomposites" Abstract: Magnetic thin film materials and bilayer composites enable unprecedented new applications, ranging from magnetic-based microelectromechanical systems (magnetoelectric sensors, ultracompact magnetoelectric antennas, etc.), terahertz emitters, to spin-orbit-torque driven magnetic memories. Here we focus on two subdisciplines within magnetics – magnetoelectrics and spintronics heterostructures. The first aspect of […]

"Learning and Shaping the Wireless Environment: An Integrated View of Sensing, Computing and Communication" Abstract: The explosive growth in Internet of Things (IoT) deployments and anticipated data volumes that will be generated within future autonomous devices require collecting and processing large amounts of data, generally transmitted over the wireless channel. Rigid infrastructure deployment that does […]

Xiaolong Ma’s PhD Dissertation Defense

"Towards Efficient Deep Neural Network Execution with Model Compression and Platform-specific Optimization" Abstract: Deep learning or deep neural network (DNN), as one of the most powerful machine learning techniques, has become the fundamental element and core enabler of the artificial intelligence. Many incredible, bleeding-edge applications, such as community/shared virtual reality experiences and self-driving cars, will […]
