With dramatic improvements in cost-performance, the use of clusters of personal computers is fast becoming widespread. For ease of use and management, a Single System Image (SSI) ...
This paper introduces an approach to control of physics-based characters based on high-level features of movement, such as centerof-mass, angular momentum, and end-effectors. Obje...
In this paper we study the impact of the medium access control (MAC) layer and the routing layer on the performance of a multi-hop wireless network. At the medium access control la...
Programmers and users of compute intensive scientific applications often do not want to (or even cannot) code load balancing and fault tolerance into their programs. The PBEAM syst...
Efficiently scheduling parallel tasks on to the processors of a shared-memory multiprocessor is critical to achieving high performance. Given perfect information at compile-time, ...
