Scheduling and power allocation for interference mitigation in heterogeneous cellular networks
Creators: name: Pradhan, Shristi Nhuchhe
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: The wireless industry is confronted with an exponentially increasing demand for ubiquitous wireless coverage and larger data rates. Recent studies have shown that the spectral efficiency of a point-to-point link in cellular networks has approached its theoretical limit. This demands an increase in the node density in order to further improve the network capacity. However, today's network already has dense deployments and high intercell interference severely limits the cell splitting gains. Moreover, high capital and operational expenditure associated further limit the deployment of high power macro nodes. In this thesis, we investigate on Heterogeneous Networks (HetNets), a new paradigm for increasing cellular capacity and coverage to meet the forecasted explosion of data traffic. HetNets consist of low power nodes such as pico and femto overlaid over a macrocell network. Nevertheless, the deployment of large number of small cells overlaying macrocells presents new technical challenges. We focus on interference management issues in HetNets and present user scheduling and power allocation schemes for interference mitigation. We investigate the performance of user scheduling and power allocation techniques for interference mitigation in HetNets. We present analytical modeling and propose improved solutions using results from the model and computer simulations. First, we propose a scheme to jointly minimize network outage probability and power consumption. Second, we propose a scheme to jointly maximize network throughput and minimize power consumption. Both these schemes guarantee Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning in HetNets. We analyze the intrinsic trade-off between network performance parameters, i.e., outage and power consumption; throughput and power consumption using multi-objective optimization approach. Different user scheduling schemes have been adopted such as best user selection, proportional fairness and round-robin. Thirdly, we also propose an energy efficient power allocation method and analyze its performance with guaranteed QoS provisioning. For all the proposed algorithms and schemes we provide extensive simulation based results.

description: In this paper we study interpretations and equivalences of propositional deductive systems by using a quantale-theoretic approach introduced by Galatos and Tsinakis. Our aim is to provide a general order-theoretic framework which is able to describe and characterize both strong and weak forms of interpretations among propositional deductive systems also in the cases where the systems have different underlying languages.
On growth rate and contact homology

description: It is a conjecture of Colin and Honda that the number of Reeb periodic orbits of universally tight contact structures on hyperbolic manifolds grows exponentially with the period, and they speculate further that the growth rate of contact homology is polynomial on non-hyperbolic geometries. Along the line of the conjecture, for manifolds with a hyperbolic component that fibers on the circle, we prove that there are infinitely many non-isomorphic contact structures for which the number of Reeb periodic orbits of any non-degenerate Reeb vector field grows exponentially. Our result hinges on the exponential growth of contact homology which we derive as well. We also compute contact homology in some non-hyperbolic cases that exhibit polynomial growth, namely those of universally tight contact structures non-transverse to the fibers on a circle bundle.
title: Investigating the effectiveness of New Zealand Blackcurrant extract to modulate postprandial glycaemia in overweight/obese individuals
Creators: name: Nolan, A

description: Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has now reached epidemic proportions, and therefore strategies to prevent and treat these conditions are required. Long-term adherence to current strategies that primarily revolve around increasing energy expenditure or reducing caloric intake is poor, and therefore alternative therapies need to be investigated. A major component surrounding the progression of obesity to diabetes and further co-morbidities is sustained periods of postprandial hyperglycaemia. Current epidemiological evidence has suggested that habitual anthocyanin intake is linked to lower T2DM risk. The aim of this thesis was to investigate whether anthocyanin-rich New Zealand blackcurrant (NZBC) extract could be an effective nutritional strategy to reduce postprandial glycaemia in overweight and obese individuals. Chapter 2 provides evidence that an acute bolus of NZBC extract is unable to mediate postprandial glucose or triglyceride responses to a carbohydrate-fat test meal, irrespective of the dose used. Therefore, Chapter 3 investigated whether 8 days NZBC extract supplementation is effective at reducing postprandial glucose responses under free-living conditions using continuous glucose monitoring. Chapter 3 showed that NZBC extract supplementation reduced postprandial glucose responses to breakfast and dinner (-9% and -8%, respectively), as well as improving insulin sensitivity (+22%) in overweight/obese individuals. In conclusion, this thesis provides evidence that short-term supplementation with an anthocyanin-rich blackcurrant extract is effective in reducing postprandial glucose responses under free-living conditions, thereby highlighting the potential for anthocyanins to be an effective strategy in mediating postprandial glycaemia and improving insulin sensitivity in individuals at risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

description: We study the dynamics in the neighborhood of fixed points in a 4D symplectic map by means of the color and rotation method. We compare the results with the corresponding cases encountered in galactic type potentials and we find that they are in good agreement. The fact that the 4D phase space close to fixed points is similar to the 4D representations of the surfaces of section close to periodic orbits, indicates an archetypical 4D pattern for each kind of (in)stability, not only in 3D autonomous Hamiltonian systems with galactic type potentials but for a larger class of dynamical systems. This pattern is successfully visualized with the method we use in the paper.

description: The pseudo-conformal scenario is an alternative to inflation in which the early universe is described by an approximate conformal field theory on flat, Minkowski space. Some fields acquire a time-dependent expectation value, which breaks the flat space so(4,2) conformal algebra to its so(4,1) de Sitter subalgebra. As a result, weight-0 fields acquire a scale invariant spectrum of perturbations. The scenario is very general, and its essential features are determined by the symmetry breaking pattern, irrespective of the details of the underlying microphysics. In this paper, we apply the well-known coset technique to derive the most general effective lagrangian describing the Goldstone field and matter fields, consistent with the assumed symmetries. The resulting action captures the low energy dynamics of any pseudo-conformal realization, including the U(1)-invariant quartic model and the Galilean Genesis scenario. We also derive this lagrangian using an alternative method of curvature invariants, consisting of writing down geometric scalars in terms of the conformal mode. Using this general effective action, we compute the two-point function for the Goldstone and a fiducial weight-0 field, as well as some sample three-point functions involving these fields.

description: Let A be a complex abelian variety and G its Mumford--Tate group. Supposing that the simple abelian subvarieties of A are pairwise non-isogenous, we find a lower bound for the rank of G, which is a little less than log_2 dim A. If we suppose that End A is commutative, then we show that rk G >= log_2 dim A + 2, and this latter bound is sharp. We also obtain the same results for the rank of the l-adic monodromy group of an abelian variety defined over a number field. ----- Soit A une variété abélienne complexe et G son groupe de Mumford--Tate. En supposant que les sous variétés abéliennes simples de A sont deux à deux non-isogènes, on trouve une minoration du rang rk G de G, légèrement inférieure à log_2 dim A. Si on suppose que End A est commutatif, alors on montre que rk G >= log_2 dim A + 2, et cette borne-ci est optimale. On obtient les mêmes resultats pour le rang du groupe de monodromie l-adique d'une variété abélienne définie sur un corps de nombres.

description: The aim of this note is to extend the result of Angel and Holroyd concerning the transience and the recurrence of transfinite rotor-router walks, for random initial configuration of rotors on homogeneous trees. We address the same question on directed covers of finite graphs, which are also called trees with finitely many cone types or periodic trees. Furthermore, we provide an example of a directed cover such that the rotor-router walk can be either recurrent or transient, depending only on the planar embedding of the periodic tree.

description: We review the relation between AdS spacetime in 1+2 dimensions and the BTZ black hole. Later we show that a ground state in AdS spacetime becomes a thermal state in the BTZ black hole. We show that this is true in the bulk and in the boundary of AdS spacetime. The existence of this thermal state is tantamount to say that the Unruh effect exists in AdS spacetime and becomes the Hawking effect for an eternal BTZ black hole. In order to make this we use the correspondence introduced in Algebraic Holography between algebras of quasi-local observables associated to wedges and doble cones regions in the bulk of AdS spacetime and its conformal boundary respectively. Also we give the real scalar quantum field as a concrete heuristic realization of this formalism.

Effect of hypoxia-inducible secreted protein, tenascin c, on 4T1 tumour cells in vitro and in vivo
Creators: name: Harbourne, Bryant Thomas
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: Introduction: Metastatic cancer is responsible for 90% of cancer related deaths. Past research focused mainly on the primary tumour, leaving the process of metastasis poorly understood. Poorly oxygenated (hypoxic) tumour cells express hypoxia inducible proteins and have a more aggressive and invasive phenotype correlated with poorer prognosis. Hypoxic tumour cells are responsible for increased angiogenesis, invasion, matrix deposition and remodelling along with many other functions. We hypothesize hypoxic tumour secreted proteins are responsible for promoting metastasis. Our aim is to identify these hypoxia inducible secreted proteins and determine mechanisms promoting metastasis. Methods: Mammary carcinoma cells (4T1 – metastatic and 67NR – non-metastatic) were placed in 1% O₂ (hypoxic) or 21% O₂ (normoxic) for 24 hours. Stable Isotope Labelling of Amino acids in Cell culture (SILAC) and mass spectrometry were used to perform a quantitative proteomic screen of conditioned medium. Proteins in 4T1 conditioned media, up-regulated in hypoxia and absent from the 67NR results represented candidate secreted proteins in metastasis. Tenascin C (TNC), a candidate protein identified from the proteomic screen was stably knocked down and over-expressed. In vitro, the Boyden chamber and wound healing assay were used to study invasion and migration. In vivo, metastasis was assessed using flow cytometry-based quantification of metastasized tumour cells in the murine lungs. Results: (TNC) was identified as a secreted protein with a role promoting metastasis in vivo through enhanced migratory ability. In vitro, knockdown of TNC in 4T1 enhanced migratory ability whereas over-expression decreased migratory ability. These results were contradictory to the expected results based on the hypothesized in vivo role. However, in vivo knockdown of TNC in 4T1 tumour cells resulted in a significant decrease in lung metastases. These results are consistent with the expected role of TNC in vivo. Conclusions: Despite the contradictory results in vitro, TNC had a positive metastatic role potentially through a migratory mechanism. TNC represents a potential new therapeutic drug target. Given the 4T1 cell line results, these data support further examination of the migratory role of TNC and how it promotes metastasis. In addition, TNC expression in other tumour cell lines including human breast cancer should be examined.

description: Quantum stochastic methods based on effective wave functions form a framework for investigating the generally non-Markovian dynamics of a quantum-mechanical system coupled to a bath. They promise to be computationally superior to the master-equation approach, which is numerically expensive for large dimensions of the Hilbert space. Here, we numerically investigate the suitability of a known stochastic Schrödinger equation that is local in time to give a description of thermal relaxation and energy transport. This stochastic Schrödinger equation can be solved with a moderate numerical cost, indeed comparable to that of a Markovian system, and reproduces the dynamics of a system evolving according to a general non-Markovian master equation. After verifying that it describes thermal relaxation correctly, we apply it for the first time to the energy transport in a spin chain. We also discuss a portable algorithm for the generation of the coloured noise associated with the numerical solution of the non-Markovian dynamics.

description: Let X* be a subset of an affine space A^s, over a finite field K, which is parameterized by the edges of a clutter. Let X and Y be the images of X* under the maps x --> [x] and x --> [(x,1)] respectively, where [x] and [(x,1)] are points in the projective spaces P^{s-1} and P^s respectively. For certain clutters and for connected graphs, we were able to relate the algebraic invariants and properties of the vanishing ideals I(X) and I(Y). In a number of interesting cases, we compute its degree and regularity. For Hamiltonian bipartite graphs, we show the Eisenbud-Goto regularity conjecture. We give optimal bounds for the regularity when the graph is bipartite. It is shown that X* is an affine torus if and only if I(Y) is a complete intersection. We present some applications to coding theory and show some bounds for the minimum distance of parameterized linear codes for connected bipartite graphs.

Characterizations in terms of convex duality conditions are given and strong consistency is proved. Moreover, we show that, under smoothness conditions on the underlying distributions and using the usual bandwidth choice in density estimation, the local convergence rate is $n^{-2/5}$ and the limit distribution is normal, in contrast with the rate $n^{-1/3}$ of the ordinary maximum likelihood estimator.

description: When two independent analog signals, X and Y are added together giving Z=X+Y, the entropy of Z, H(Z), is not a simple function of the entropies H(X) and H(Y), but rather depends on the details of X and Y's distributions. Nevertheless, the entropy power inequality (EPI), which states that exp [2H(Z)] \geq exp[2H(X)] + exp[2H(Y)], gives a very tight restriction on the entropy of Z. This inequality has found many applications in information theory and statistics. The quantum analogue of adding two random variables is the combination of two independent bosonic modes at a beam splitter. The purpose of this work is to give a detailed outline of the proof of two separate generalizations of the entropy power inequality to the quantum regime. Our proofs are similar in spirit to standard classical proofs of the EPI, but some new quantities and ideas are needed in the quantum setting. Specifically, we find a new quantum de Bruijin identity relating entropy production under diffusion to a divergence-based quantum Fisher information. Furthermore, this Fisher information exhibits certain convexity properties in the context of beam splitters.

Systematic study of separators to improve the performance of passive air-breathing flat-plate microbial fuel cells
Creators: name: Kazemi, Sona
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: Passive air-breathing microbial fuel cells (MFC) are a promising technology for energy recovery from wastewater. The performance of the passive air breathing MFCs is dependent on the separator characteristics, isolating the anaerobic anode from the air-breathing cathode. The separator plays a more important role when the electrodes are placed in close proximity, to reduce the Ohmic resistance. The goal of the present work was to study the separator characteristics and its effect on the performance of passive air-breathing flat-plate MFCs (FPMFCs), through a combination of experimental and theoretical approaches. This was performed through characterization of 8 separators to investigate the ionic resistivity, oxygen and ethanol crossover, and proton transport number. The separators were then examined in three passive air-breathing FPMFCs with different electrode spacing, using three-dimensional graphite felt anodes and platinum-based cathodes. A numerical model was developed based on the mixed potential theory to investigate the sensitivity of the electrode potentials and the power output to the separator characteristics. The separator characterization indicated a greater susceptibility to oxygen and ethanol crossover in diaphragms, compared to the ion-exchange membranes (IEMs). Increasing the electrode spacing was also shown to be desirable for the application of diaphragms, as the anodic mixed potentials were reduced. The peak power density decreased by increasing the mass transfer coefficients of oxygen and ethanol in the separator. The model indicated that this was due to the increased mixed potentials at the anode, caused by the oxygen crossover. The mixed potentials at the cathode did not vary as the ethanol crossover increased, due to the slow kinetics of ethanol oxidation over Pt. The model also indicated that the peak power was affected by the proton transport number of the separator, which affected the cathode pH. The peak power was not sensitive to the resistivity of the separator due to the overshadowing effect of the oxygen crossover. The passive air-breathing FPMFC, using a 6 mm thick graphite felt anode, Pt-based cathode, and Nafion®117 membrane, showed the highest peak power density of ca. 0.52 W/m², which was higher than those reported for the active air flow FPMFCs in the literature.

description: Today by growing network systems, security is a key feature of each network infrastructure. Network Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) provide defense model for all security threats which are harmful to any network. The IDS could detect and block attack-related network traffic. The network control is a complex model. Implementation of an IDS could make delay in the network. Several software-based network intrusion detection systems are developed. However, the model has a problem with high speed traffic. This paper reviews of many type of software architecture in intrusion detection systems and describes the design and implementation of a high-performance network intrusion detection system that combines the use of software-based network intrusion detection sensors and a network processor board. The network processor which is a hardware-based model could acts as a customized load balancing splitter. This model cooperates with a set of modified content-based network intrusion detection sensors rather than IDS in processing network traffic and controls the high-speed.

The generalized Pareto process; with a view towards application and simulation

description: In extreme value statistics, the peaks-over-threshold method is widely used. The method is based on the generalized Pareto distribution characterizing probabilities of exceedances over high thresholds in $\mathbb {R}^d$. We present a generalization of this concept in the space of continuous functions. We call this the generalized Pareto process. Differently from earlier papers, our definition is not based on a distribution function but on functional properties, and does not need a reference to a related max-stable process. As an application, we use the theory to simulate wind fields connected to disastrous storms on the basis of observed extreme but not disastrous storms. We also establish the peaks-over-threshold approach in function space.

description: A disease prevalence can be estimated by classifying subjects according to whether they have the disease. When gold-standard tests are too expensive to be applied to all subjects, partially validated data can be obtained by double-sampling in which all individuals are classified by a fallible classifier, and some of individuals are validated by the gold-standard classifier. However, it could happen in practice that such infallible classifier does not available. In this article, we consider two models in which both classifiers are fallible and propose four asymptotic test procedures for comparing disease prevalence in two groups. Corresponding sample size formulae and validated ratio given the total sample sizes are also derived and evaluated. Simulation results show that (i) Score test performs well and the corresponding sample size formula is also accurate in terms of the empirical power and size in two models; (ii) the Wald test based on the variance estimator with parameters estimated under the null hypothesis outperforms the others even under small sample sizes in Model II, and the sample size estimated by this test is also accurate; (iii) the estimated validated ratios based on all tests are accurate. The malarial data are used to illustrate the proposed methodologies.

description: We formulate, and in some cases prove, three statements concerning the purity or, more generally the naturality of the resolution of various rings one can attach to a generic curve of genus g and a torsion point of order l in its Jacobian. These statements can be viewed an analogues of Green's Conjecture and we verify them computationally for bounded genus. We then compute the cohomology class of the corresponding non-vanishing locus in the moduli space R_{g,l} of twisted level l curves of genus g and use this to derive results about the birational geometry of R_{g, l}. For instance, we prove that R_{g,3} is a variety of general type when g>11 and the Kodaira dimension of R_{11,3} is greater than or equal to 19. In the last section we explain probabilistically the unexpected failure of the Prym-Green conjecture in genus 8 and level 2.

Exchange Economy in Two-User Multiple-Input Single-Output Interference Channels

description: We study the conflict between two links in a multiple-input single-output interference channel. This setting is strictly competitive and can be related to perfectly competitive market models. In such models, general equilibrium theory is used to determine equilibrium measures that are Pareto optimal. First, we consider the links to be consumers that can trade goods within themselves. The goods in our setting correspond to beamforming vectors. We utilize the conflict representation of the consumers in the Edgeworth box, a graphical tool that depicts the allocation of the goods for the two consumers, to provide closed-form solution to all Pareto optimal outcomes. Afterwards, we model the situation between the links as a competitive market which additionally defines prices for the goods. The equilibrium in this economy is called Walrasian and corresponds to the prices that equate the demand to the supply of goods. We calculate the unique Walrasian equilibrium and propose a coordination process that is realized by an arbitrator which distributes the Walrasian prices to the consumers. The consumers then calculate in a decentralized manner their optimal demand corresponding to beamforming vectors that achieve the Walrasian equilibrium. This outcome is Pareto optimal and dominates the noncooperative outcome of the systems. Thus, based on the game theoretic model and solution concept, an algorithm for a distributed implementation of the beamforming problem in multiple-input single-output interference channels is provided.

description: A local exclusion principle is observed for identical particles obeying intermediate/fractional exchange statistics in one and two dimensions, leading to bounds for the kinetic energy in terms of the density. This has implications for models of Lieb-Liniger and Calogero-Sutherland type, and implies a non-trivial lower bound for the energy of the anyon gas whenever the statistics parameter is an odd numerator fraction. We discuss whether this is actually a necessary requirement.

description: In this paper a supersymmetric version of a generalized unitarity cut method in application to MHV and NMHV for form factors of operators from the N=4 SYM stress-tensor current supermultiplet $T^{AB}$ at one loop is discussed. The explicit answers for 3 and 4 point NMHV form factors at tree and one loop level are obtained.
