2022 DLA Projects

Project Description The Future of Work Collaboratory (FWC) at CU has two open positions for undergrad research assistants. The FWC is an interdisciplinary research effort across Civil Engineering, Computer Science, and Psychology. It is funded by the National Science Foundation. After two years of R&D and prototype testing, we are...

Project Description The project involves development web software development of an offline energy auditing algorithm to improve the energy efficiency of existing buildings. The web-based tool should allow multi-users to perform energy audit of their buildings. The student candidate for this project will be introduced and trained to use the...

Project Description This project is to explore/exploit the GPS/position engine within Android. Ideally making end result more more robust with higher integrity. The Android platform provides the majority of GPS/GNSS receivers across the world. Its integration within Android is interesting and many many applications on dependent on "position aware" data...

Project Description Software Defined Radios are an ever increasing popular topic. The advent of low cost USB radio dongles such as the USRP and BladeRF as well as tools such as GNU radio have allowed for radio development to move into the software domain. GPS is a satellite-based navigation system...

Project Description Charged astrodynamics is an emerging field of research that deals with electrostatic forces in orbit that result from electrically charged spacecraft. The AVS lab is working on methods to either utilize these forces for active debris removal, or to find guidance and control laws that mitigate the perturbations...

Project Description 5G networks have shown to have significant benefits. However, their security is still a big challenge for most industries. In this project the student will work to outsource certain networking functions to accelerators and implement obfuscation mechanisms to improve the privacy of an untrusted 5G network. Special Requirements...

Project Description Non-Volatile memory systems are becoming a reality offering benefits such as larger memory densities as well as non-volatile properties that allow for systems to be resilient to power outages. Like any prior new technology, with new computing models come new vulnerabilities. In this project the student will evaluate...

Project Description The main goal of this project is to find a way to assign a level of security to certain microarchitectural security solutions that defend against transient execution attacks, such as Spectre and Meltdown. Special Requirements It would be good if students have a sense of basic computer security...

Project Description Stochastic Resonance (SR) has been shown to be a useful way to enhance perceptual and cognitive performance; however, there are open ended questions to the underlying neural mechanisms that induce SR. We will use neuroimaging and statistical analysis to understand how SR influences neural behavior and how it...

Project Description The Brain, AI, and Child (BAIC) lab at the University of Colorado Boulder is looking for undergraduate assistants who are interested in gaining research experiences in the intersection of computer science and neuroscience. You will be a part of an interdisciplinary team to investigate the question: “How can...
