Computer Engineering Final Year Topic: Design and Evaluation of USB Serial Data Acquisition Buffering

This Computer Engineering final year project investigates avoiding lost samples when a host temporarily pauses reading, linking hardware behaviour and software assumptions through an explicitly bounded prototype or simulation.

Why choose this project topic?

The topic makes avoiding lost samples when a host temporarily pauses reading a testable computer-engineering problem with visible interfaces and failure cases. Measuring lost samples, end-to-end latency and memory use helps a student compare design alternatives and explain how resource constraints affect the proposed implementation.

How do the selected hardware or embedded-software choices affect lost samples, end-to-end latency and memory use when avoiding lost samples when a host temporarily pauses reading?

Choose an available development board or simulator, agree the supported interface and workload, and narrow avoiding lost samples when a host temporarily pauses reading with your supervisor.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Specify the interfaces, operating assumptions and expected behaviour for avoiding lost samples when a host temporarily pauses reading.
  2. 02Use owned low-voltage devices, generate known sample sequences and compare buffering policies under controlled host delays.
  3. 03Measure lost samples, end-to-end latency and memory use and document failures, resource limits and reproducibility.

A suggested research approach

Use owned low-voltage devices, generate known sample sequences and compare buffering policies under controlled host delays. Keep all tests on owned, simulated or approved low-voltage equipment. Record hardware and tool versions, compare output with an independent reference, and evaluate lost samples, end-to-end latency and memory use using normal, boundary and interrupted-operation cases.

What you will need

  • Owned acquisition board
  • Synthetic sample generator
  • Host logging application

Keep your project scope clear

The prototype does not validate precision measurement or acquisition from medical equipment. Project writing does not supply working firmware or manufactured hardware.
