• Building shape-shifting tries for fast IP lookup 

    Pan, Mian, 1974- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
    [ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The Internet Protocol (IP) is a protocol used to communicate data over packet-switched internet works. The currently deployed version of the Internet ...
  • Confocal microscopy imaging analysis of plant morphodynamics 

    Fortman, John T., 1973- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
    Pollen tubes are delivery mechanisms in a plant's reproductive cycle. Morphodynamic analysis of these microscopic structures provide biologists with insight into the inner workings of these structures. This thesis presents ...
  • Data-driven 3D shape modeling 

    Xi, Yongjian, 1971- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
    3D shape modeling is essential for computer to understand our real world. So far, 3D shaping modeling is still an open issue. There are too much raw data around, but there is no uniform or standard way to translate them ...
  • A fast multiple longest common subsequence (MLCS) algorithm 

    Wang, Qingguo (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
    [ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Finding the longest common subsequence (LCS) of multiple strings is an NP-hard problem, with many applications in the areas of bioinformatics and ...
  • A new approach to data backup 

    Hutchinson, Jay L. (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
    Backing up data in order to protect against its possible loss is important. As more and more data is stored the burden of storing large amounts of backup data becomes significant. This thesis discusses the design and ...
  • Statistical inference in wireless sensor and mobile networks 

    Zhuang, Peng, 1979- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
    In recent years, wireless sensor networks have emerged as a cost effective alternative to traditional wired sensor systems. In the meantime, mobile networks have also gained many momentums. The two emerging networks share ...
  • Temporal mining framework for risk reduction and early detection of chronic diseases 

    Paladugu, Sowjanya, 1984- (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
    Chronic diseases significantly affect the quality of life of over 25 million Americans and are among the most common health problems. Due to the complexity of these diseases, it is difficult for clinicians to analyze trends ...
