Anonymous Multicast Communication for Wireless Networks Using Layered Encryption and Hashing
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2010)A sensor network consists of autonomous sensors that operate cooperatively to monitor sensitive information in various environments. A sensor node often sends the information to the base node(s). The base nodes contain the ... -
Application of Wrapper Methods to Non-Invasive Brain-State Detection: An Opto-Electric Approach
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-01-20)Using a classification guided feature selection (wrapper method) in conjunction with a new performance metric, I present a solution to multi-class subject invariant Brain Computer Interface (BCIs) using electroencephalography ... -
Classification of Human Postural and Gestural Movements Using Center of Pressure Parameters Derived From Force Platforms
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2010)The human body, while standing, can be imagined as a complex feedback system that produces continuous sway patterns. Subtle body movements that can be caused by sensory cues such as visual or auditory, affective, cognitive, ... -
An Energy Efficient Addressing Scheme For a Static Wireless Sensor Network
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-01-20)In this thesis, we propose architecture for a static wireless sensor network where sensors are arranged into a zones with the nodes at each zone interconnected with nodes in sub zones. We also provide an energy efficient ... -
Functional Sorting of Evolutionary Effects in Protein Domains
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2010)One of the most important questions in evolutionary genetics is whether a gene of interest is under positive selection, negative selection or neutral evolution. Although there are numerous existed methods and statistical ... -

A New Strong Proactive Verifiable Secret Sharing Scheme with Unconditional Security
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2010)In secret sharing scheme, the master secret and all the private shares (which are distributed by the dealer to the shareholders) are the two secrets which are to be maintained confidentially. In all the secret sharing ... -
Performance Impacts Due to Number Portability Under Various Routing Schemes
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2010)Number portability allows a user to keep her telephone number as she moves to another provider. Number portability has been adopted by more and more countries around the world. A number that has a new provider is called a ... -
Socio-Cultural Communication System--a Communication Mechanism For Multi-Media Information Access System for Non-Literate and Linguistically Diverse Users
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2010)Current Internet services are not optimal for the access of information for non-literate or linguistically diverse users. Almost all Internet content is available only in written form and still in a limited number of ... -
VirtualMindTrial: An Intelligent Questionnaire System for Clinical Trail Recruitment
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2010)The recruitment of human subjects for clinical trials research is a critically important step in the discovery of new cures for diseases. Volunteers are subjected to an elaborate questionnaire process in current recruitment ... -
Volatility-Aware Query Processing in Peer-to-Peer Systems
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2010)Peer-to-Peer (P2P) paradigm has been recognized as a disruptive technology that can aggregate enormous storage and processing resources for information sharing and distributed computing. This paradigm has received significant ...
