This paper addresses the shape-based segmentation problem using level sets. In particular, we propose a fast algorithm to solve the piece-wise constant Chan-Vese segmentation mode...
The support of variable block-sizes, though significantly improves the compression efficiency, imposes a big computational challenge on an H.264 encoder. In this paper, we present...
Numerical simulations in computational physics, biology, and finance, often require the use of high quality and efficient parallel random number generators. We design and optimi...

The slow speed of conventional execution-driven architecture simulators is a serious impediment to obtaining desirable research productivity. This paper proposes and evaluates a f...
In this paper we consider gossip-based Peer-to-Peer streaming applications where multiple sources exist and they work serially. More specifically, we tackle the problem of fast s...
