    Under the Cover: The Conceptualization and Realization of an Immersive Dance-Theater Installation

    No full text
    This thesis presents a comprehensive overview of the creative and technical processes necessary to conceptualize and produce an immersive dance-theater installation. This work traces my creative process back to my initial inspirations – my ‘lightbulb’ moment – and follows the evolution of the work as it transformed into the fully-fledged show that was produced this Spring. Emphasis is placed on my choreographic process, with insights into the assembly of a multidisciplinary, collaborative team of performers, ‘techies,’ and trusted advisors. The performance itself delves into the delicate intricacies of adolescence, and the formative moments that are only ever experienced under the protective cover of darkness

    Routing Dynamics in Shipping Networks: Theory and Simulation

    No full text
    This thesis develops a discrete-time dynamical systems framework for analyzing cargo f low in port networks under two ship routing paradigms. The two models are; 1) a rotational routing scheme, in which ships follow a fixed loop through a sequence of ports, and 2) a hub-and-spoke model, in which a central hub coordinates distribution to peripheral ports. Each port maintains a warehouse with fixed maximum capacity, external inflow, and scheduled outflow. Ships transfer cargo between ports under constraints on capacity, transfer rate, and travel time. Through simulation and mathematical analysis, the nonlinearity of the systems is dissected using tools from dynamical systems analysis. Fixed point behavior is characterized under both routing regimes, and local stability is examined via lin earization techniques. The rotational model is shown to require a global flow balance for equilibrium, rendering it fragile to perturbations. In contrast, the hub-and-spoke model exhibits decentralized stability, with each port stabilizing independently given sufficient ship servic

    Zero-Knowledge Proofs

    No full text
    This thesis examine past and modern constructions of zero knowledge proofs. Zero-knowledge proofs were introduced as a method of proving a statement without revealing anything more than the statement itself. It can further be shown that a zero-knowledge protocol can be constructed for all problems in NP. Early constructions of zero-knowledge protocols were built on nondeterminism and interaction. However, interactive protocols have many limitations, including overhead and efficiency costs. With the need for online security, zero-knowledge proofs have found mainstream uses, particularly in the form of noninteractive zero-knowledge proofs. However, the focus of this thesis will only be on interactive protocols
