— We consider the problem of gathering data from a sensor network using mobile elements. In particular, we consider the case where the data are produced by measurements and need ...
Work stealing is a common technique used in the runtime schedulers of parallel languages such as Cilk and parallel libraries such as Intel Threading Building Blocks (TBB). Depth-r...
Recent advances in scanning technologies, in particular devices that extract depth through active sensing, allow fast scanning of urban scenes. Such rapid acquisition incurs imper...
