ASU Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This collection includes most of the ASU Theses and Dissertations from 2011 to present. ASU Theses and Dissertations are available in downloadable PDF format; however, a small percentage of items are under embargo. Information about the dissertations/theses includes degree information, committee members, an abstract, supporting data or media.
In addition to the electronic theses found in the ASU Digital Repository, ASU Theses and Dissertations can be found in the ASU Library Catalog.
Dissertations and Theses granted by Arizona State University are archived and made available through a joint effort of the ASU Graduate College and the ASU Libraries. For more information or questions about this collection contact or visit the Digital Repository ETD Library Guide or contact the ASU Graduate College at gradformat@asu.edu.

In both areas, individual neurons were classified based on the spectrum of their spiking patterns. A large proportion of cells in the SPL that exhibited sensory condition-specific oscillatory spiking in the beta (13-30Hz) frequency band. Cells in the IPL typically had a more diverse mix of oscillatory and refractory spiking patterns during the task in response to changing sensory condition. Contrary to the assumptions made in many modelling studies, none of the cells exhibited Poisson-spiking statistics in SPL or IPL.
Evoked LFPs in both areas exhibited greater effects of target location than visual condition, though the evoked responses in the preferred reach direction were generally suppressed in the bimodal condition relative to the unimodal condition. Significant effects of target location on evoked responses were observed during the movement period of the task well.
In the frequency domain, LFP power in both cortical areas was enhanced in the beta band during the position estimation epoch of the task, indicating that LFP beta oscillations may be important for maintaining the ongoing state. This was particularly evident at the population level, with clear increase in alpha and beta power. Differences in spectral power between conditions also became apparent at the population level, with power during bimodal trials being suppressed relative to unimodal. The spike-field coherence showed confounding results in both the SPL and IPL, with no clear correlation between incidence of beta oscillations and significant beta coherence.
industry has brought about unique set of challenges and opportunities. ARM architecture
in particular has evolved to a point where it supports implementations across wide spectrum
of performance points and ARM based tablets and smart-phones are in demand. The
enhancements to basic ARM RISC architecture allow ARM to have high performance,
small code size, low power consumption and small silicon area. Users want their devices to
perform many tasks such as read email, play games, and run other online applications and
organizations no longer desire to provision and maintain individual’s IT equipment. The
term BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) has come into being from demand of such a work
setup and is one of the motivation of this research work. It brings many opportunities such
as increased productivity and reduced costs and challenges such as secured data access,
data leakage and amount of control by the organization.
To provision such a framework we need to bridge the gap from both organizations side
and individuals point of view. Mobile device users face issue of application delivery on
multiple platforms. For instance having purchased many applications from one proprietary
application store, individuals may want to move them to a different platform/device but
currently this is not possible. Organizations face security issues in providing such a solution
as there are many potential threats from allowing BYOD work-style such as unauthorized
access to data, attacks from the devices within and outside the network.
ARM based Secure Mobile SDN framework will resolve these issues and enable employees
to consolidate both personal and business calls and mobile data access on a single device.
To address application delivery issue we are introducing KVM based virtualization that
will allow host OS to run multiple guest OS. To address the security problem we introduce
SDN environment where host would be running bridged network of guest OS using Open
vSwitch . This would allow a remote controller to monitor the state of guest OS for making
important control and traffic flow decisions based on the situation.
