Secure, Verifiable and Timely Side Channel Network Communications Using Distributed Ledgers

Ciaran McGoldrick (email | all projects)

Background I’m happy to consider compelling project proposals that involve hardware, networking, security or wireless technologies. Ideally they will be well aligned with my research interests. In recent years students have worked on projects in security and crypto, VPNs, homomorphic encryption, Vehicular Networking, Distributed online control, Underwater communications, music visualisation and some fundamental Quantum Communication … Read more

Give me a sign! Investigating the brain processing of sign language (taken)

Giovanni Di Liberto (email | all projects)

The perception of speech has been studied extensively, due to its importance in our society. Sign language is an alternative form of communication, primarily adopted by individuals that are deaf, with severe hearing impairment, or with severe difficulties speaking to physically speak. However, it is unknown how the brain of the “listener” transforms sign language … Read more

Slot-based Driving Simulation in CARLA

Vinny Cahill (email | all projects)

The Research Ireland-funded ClearWay project [2] is investigating new models of road management is which each vehicle is allocated a slot in which to travel for the duration of its journey. Adherence to travelling in its allocated slot ensures congestion-free travel from source to destination for each vehicle (in the absence of unexpected events). A … Read more

[Taken] Framework for Chaos Engineering for Kubernetes

Stefan Weber (email | all projects)

Deployments of micro-services to Kubernetes clusters can consist of a variety of implementations and their interaction can result in very complex system behaviour. Chaos Engineering is a testing strategy that exposes these deployments to a variety of stress tests in order to reveal potential bottlenecks and system failures. Current approaches to Chaos Engineering provide functionality … Read more

[Taken] Kernel-based QUIC implementation

Stefan Weber (email | all projects)

The Quick UDP Internet Connections (QUIC) protocol has been proposed as the transport protocol for HTTP3. The protocol is based on the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) and facilitates a number of features in comparison to the traditional Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) such as streams and connection identifiers. Current, implementations of this protocol have been realised … Read more

[Taken] Extending Kubernetes Clusters to Individual Nodes in Edge Networks

Stefan Weber (email | all projects)

Traditionally, Kubernetes has been designed to manage clusters of servers and distribute processing load over them, while providing resilience and scalability. Various approaches have been proposed that stretch the traditional Kubernetes concept to multi-cluster solutions where hardware from multiple providers are combined and deployments can be distributed over available hardware according to a variety of … Read more

[Taken] Design of an AI-based Dissertation Evaluation System

Stefan Weber (email | all projects)

Currently, academics receive PDF copies of dissertations and assess these dissertations by reading them, grading various rubrics in evaluation forms, commenting on their views, and consulting with a 2nd examiner about an agreed mark. This project will investigate the development of a system that analyses submitted PDF copies with the help of Artificial Intelligence eg. … Read more
