As described in the attributions of the dissertation, parts of two chapters have been previously published.  Copyright and rights to reproduce are described here.


Chapter 2 is an expanded version of a conference paper.  Although at this point, very little of the original conference paper remains, for the portions that do the copyright is held by IEEE (see attached form, CopyrightIEEE).  Their policy (available at https://www.ieee.org/content/dam/ieee-org/ieee/web/org/pubs/permissions_faq.pdf), states:
	
"Does IEEE require individuals working on a thesis or dissertation to obtain formal permission for
reuse?
The IEEE does not require individuals working on a thesis to obtain a formal reuse license, however, you
must follow the requirements listed below:

The requirements pertaining to an entire article do not apply, as IEEE holds the copyright only to the original conference version.  The expanded version appropriately cites that conference version, and the IEEE copyright is appropriately noted on the chapter's title page.  Additionally, a manuscript based on this chapter has been submitted for journal publication, but not yet accepted.  If accepted, the same policy will apply.

Chapter 3 was published in a conference proceedings by the ACM, however the copyright is retained by the authors.  The license granted to ACM (attached, under "LicenseACM") states that ""(b) Furthermore, notwithstanding the exclusive rights the Owner has granted to ACM in Paragraph 2(a), Owner shall have the right to do the following:  (i) Reuse any portion of the Work, without fee, in any future works written or edited by the Author, including books, lectures and presentations in any and all media."

Chapter 4 has not been submitted to any journal yet, and consequently copyright is held by myself.  When it is submitted (in a shortened form), the same rights as Chapter 3 will be retained.
