Description
With the development of technology, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of machine learning programs. These complex programs make conclusions and can predict or perform actions based off of models from previous runs or input information. However, such programs require the storing of a very large amount of data. Queries allow users to extract only the information that helps for their investigation. The purpose of this thesis was to create a system with two important components, querying and visualization. Metadata was stored in Sedna as XML and time series data was stored in OpenTSDB as JSON. In order to connect the two databases, the time series ID was stored as a metric in the XML metadata. Queries should be simple, flexible, and return all data that fits the query parameters. The query language used was an extension of XQuery FLWOR that added time series parameters. Visualization should be easily understood and be organized in a way to easily find important information and details. Because of the possibility of a large amount of data being returned from a query, a multivariate heat map was used to visualize the time series results. The two programs that the system performed queries on was Energy Plus and Epidemic Simulation Data Management System. By creating such a system, it would be easier for people of the project's fields to find the relationship between metadata that leads to the desired results over time. Over the time of the thesis project, the overall software was completed, however the software must be optimized in order to take the enormous amount of data expected from the system.

Description
The Coffee Hutch project is derived from the field of Computer Science and consists of a website, a database, and a mobile application for Android devices. This three-tiered scheme is designed to support a point-of-sale payment system to be integrated with a standalone product dispensing machine. The website contains landing pages which provide navigation and functional capabilities for users. The site also features a variety of PHP web services which communicate with the database using SQL commands. The application, programmed in the Java language, makes use of these services in a simple, utilitarian design aimed at modification of user data stored in the database. This database, developed with MySQL and managed with the phpMyAdmin application, contains limited information in order to maximize speed of read and write accesses from the website and Android app. Together, these three components comprise an effective payment management system model with mobile capabilities. All of the components of this project were built at no cost. The website hosting service is free and the third-party services required (such as Paypal payment services) are simulated. These simulations allowed me to demonstrate the functionality of the three-tiered product without the necessity for monetary supplication. This thesis features every aspect of the development and testing of The Coffee Hutch software components. Requirements for each function of the software are specified in one section, and they are aligned with various pieces of the code in the source documentation. Test cases which address each requirement are outlined in another section of the thesis.

Description
Engineering an object means engineering the process that creates the object. Today, software can make the task of tracking these processes robust and straightforward. When engineering requirements are strict and strenuous, software custom-built for such processes can prove essential. The work for this project was developing ICDB, an inventory control and build management system created for spacecraft engineers at ASU to record each step of their engineering processes. In-house development means ICDB is more precisely designed around its users' functionality and cost requirements than most off-the-shelf commercial offerings. By placing a complex relational database behind an intuitive web application, ICDB enables organizations and their users to create and store parts libraries, assembly designs, purchasing and location records for inventory items, and more.

Description
Mosquito population data is a valuable resource for researchers and public health officials working to limit the spread of deadly zoonotic viruses such as Zika Virus and West Nile Virus. Unfortunately, this data is currently difficult to obtain and aggregate across the United States. Obtaining historical data often requires filing requests to individual States or Counties and hoping for a response. Current online systems available for accessing aggregated data are lacking essential features, or limited in scope. In order to make mosquito population data more accessible for United States researchers, epidemiologists, and public health officials, the MosquitoDB system has been developed. MosquitoDB consists of a JavaScript Web Application, connected to a SQL database, that makes submitting and retrieving United States mosquito population data much simpler and straight forward than alternative systems. The MosquitoDB software project is open source and publically available on GitHub, allowing community scrutiny and contributions to add or improve necessary features. For this Creative Project, the core MosquitoDB system was designed and developed with 3 main features: 1) Web Interface for querying mosquito data. 2) Web Interface for submitting mosquito data. 3) Web Services for querying/retrieving and submitting mosquito data. The Web Interface is essential for common end users, such as researchers and public health officials, to access historical data or submit new data. The Web Services provide building blocks for Web Applications that other developers can use to incorporate data into new applications. The current MosquitoDB system is live at https://zodo.asu.edu/mosquito and the public code repository is available at https://github.com/developerDemetri/mosquitodb.
