Multiprocessor architectures that continuously execute atomic blocks (or chunks) of instructions can improve performance and software productivity. However, all of the prior propo...
This paper proposes a fast motion estimation algorithm for MPEG-4 shape coding. The proposed algorithm is based on inherent properties of shape coding as well as shape information...
We demonstrate a web service and client application for querying and visualizing datasets defined over arbitrary topological grids. Such gridded datasets are produced by Earth sci...
The very hot and power-hungry x-ray filaments in today's computed tomography (CT) scanners constrain their design to be big and stationary. What if we built a CT scanner that ...
We propose two novel integration techniques -- bypass and bookkeeping -- in the memory controller to address the cache coherence compatibility issue of a non-shared bus heterogene...
