We show that for every n-point metric space M and positive integer k, there exists a spanning tree T with unweighted diameter O(k) and weight w(T) = O(k · n1/k ) · w(MST(M)), an...
Classification is an important problem in the field of data mining. Construction of good classifiers is computationally intensive and offers plenty of scope for parallelization. D...
In this paper, we present an e cient algorithm for contact determination between spline models. We make use of a new hierarchy, called ShellTree, that comprises of spherical shell...

Recent advances in GPU programmability and architecture have allowed for the generation of ray casted or ray traced images at interactive rates. How quickly these images can be ge...
Eden is a parallel extension of the functional language Haskell. Eden inherits from Haskell its laziness, which allows it to avoid unnecessary computations. However, in order to en...
