Server selection plays an essential role in content replication networks, such as peer-to-peer (P2P) and content delivery networks (CDNs). In this paper, we perform an analytical i...
In Monte-Carlo photon-tracing methods energy-carrying particles are traced in an environment to generate hit points on object surfaces for simulating global illumination. The surf...
This paper presents the Mitosis framework, which is a combined hardware-software approach to speculative multithreading, even in the presence of frequent dependences among threads....
We introduce a technique to rapidly generate summed-area tables using graphics hardware. Summed area tables, originally introduced by Crow, provide a way to filter arbitrarily lar...
This paper addresses the problem of human motion encoding for real-time animation in interactive environments. Classically, a motion is stored as a sequence of body postures encod...
