Irregular parallel algorithms pose a significant challenge for achieving high performance because of the difficulty predicting memory access patterns or execution paths. Within an...
There have been many parallel external sorting algorithms reported such as NOW-Sort, SPsort, and hill sort, etc. They are for sorting large-scale data stored in the disk, but they ...
Modern VLSI technology has changed the economic rules by which the balance between processing power, memory and communications is decided in computing systems. This will have a pr...
Designers of distributed systems often rely on replicas for increased robustness, scalability, and performance. Replicated server architectures require some technique to select a ...
We present an algorithm which can track the 3D pose of a hand held camera in real-time using predefined models of objects in the scene. The technique utilises and extends recently...
