We live in an era of data explosion that necessitates the discovery of novel out-of-core techniques. The I/O bottleneck has to be dealt with in developing out-of-core methods. The...
Abstract. The Parallel Disks Model (PDM) has been proposed to alleviate the I/O bottleneck that arises in the processing of massive data sets. Sorting has been extensively studied ...
— This paper demonstrates that the algorithmic performance of end user programs may be greatly affected by the two or three level caching scheme of the processor, and we introduc...
Training of conditional random fields often takes the form of a double-loop procedure with message-passing inference in the inner loop. This can be very expensive, as the need to...
Efficient capturing of the entire topological and geometric information of a 3D scene is an important feature in many graphics applications for rendering multi-fragment effects. Ex...
