Due to their ease of use and availability, pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras are everywhere. However, in order to utilize these cameras for a meaningful application, it is necessary tha...
This paper presents an extensive characterization, tuning, and optimization of parallel I/O on the Cray XT supercomputer, named Jaguar, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. We have c...
In this paper, we present a new algorithm to reconstruct 3D surfaces from an unorganized point cloud based on generalizing the MPU implicit algorithm through introducing a powerfu...
