Shadowing effects dramatically enhance the realism of virtual environments by providing useful visual cues. Shadow mapping is an efficient algorithm for real-time shadow renderin...
In this paper, we outline the basis for a new distributed Bayesian search scheme in which all Bayesian decision makers recognize the same performance objective but do not possess ...
Achieving high performance for concurrent applications on modern multiprocessors remains challenging. Many programmers avoid locking to improve performance, while others replace l...

Dynamic programming is a widely applied algorithm design technique in many areas such as computational biology and scientific computing. Typical applications using this technique a...
In this paper we address the problem of minimizing the response time of a multi-way join query using pipelined (inter-operator) parallelism, in a parallel or a distributed environ...
