Multi-core processors naturally exploit thread-level parallelism (TLP). However, extracting instruction-level parallelism (ILP) from individual applications or threads is still a ...
We present an interactive GPU-based algorithm for accurately rendering high-quality, dynamic glossy reflection effects from both HDR environment maps and local scene objects. Our ...
—One of the challenges of ambient systems lies in providing all the available services of the environment to the ambient devices, even if they do not physically host those servic...
Last years have witnessed how crowd simulations have become an essential tool for many virtual environment applications. These applications require both rendering visually plausib...
Interest in Grid computing has grown significantly over the past five years. Management of distributed cluster resources is a key issue in Grid computing. Central to management ...
