We present a new Monte Carlo method for solving the light transport problem, inspired by the Metropolis sampling method in computational physics. To render an image, we generate a...
In this paper we present a performance study of memory reference behavior in network protocol processing, using an Internet-based protocol stack implemented in the x-kernel runnin...

One of the important problems in data mining is discovering association rules from databases of transactions where each transaction consists of a set of items. The most time consu...
A common statistical problem is that of nding the median element in a set of data. This paper presents a fastand portable parallel algorithm for nding the median given a set of el...
This paper presents e cient and portable implementations of a useful image enhancement process, the Symmetric Neighborhood Filter SNF, and an image segmentation technique which ma...
