Abstract-- In peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, reputation aggregation and peer ranking are the most time-consuming and spacedemanding operations. This paper proposes a gossip-based rep...
NAND Flash has become the most popular stable storage medium for embedded systems. As on-board storage capacity increases, the need for efficient indexing techniques arises. Such ...
Hard-to-predict branches depending on longlatency cache-misses have been recognized as a major performance obstacle for modern microprocessors. With the widening speed gap between...

This paper proposes a massively parallel hardware architecture for efficient tracing of incoherent rays, e.g. for global illumination. The general approach is centered around hier...
Caustics produce beautiful and intriguing illumination patterns. However, their complex behavior make them difficult to simulate accurately in all but the simplest configurations....
