Many researchers have been arguing that geometry, bump maps, and BRDFs present a hierarchy of detail that should be exploited for efficient rendering purposes. In practice howeve...

Recent high-performance processors employ sophisticated techniques to overlap and simultaneously execute multiple computation and memory operations. Intuitively, these techniques ...

A central issue in the design of modern communication networks is that of providing performance guarantees. This issue is particularly important if the networks support real-time t...
As shared-memory multiprocessors become the dominant commodity source of computation, parallelizing compilers must support mainstream computations that manipulate irregular, point...
We describe and evaluate a strategy for declustering the parity encoding in a redundant disk array. This declustered parity organization balances cost against data reliability and...
