: In this paper, I will look at the rather convoluted discovery process which gave birth to the concept of the shared electron pair bond as developed by G.N. Lewis, to be subsequen...
We present a simple method to render complex 3D models at interactive rates using real-time displacement mapping. We use an octree to decompose the 3D model into a set of height f...
One component of a user's interaction with computer systems is commonly referred to as `flow'. Flow is an important consideration in interactive system design as it enca...
Query rewriting using views is an essential issue in data integration. A number of algorithms, e.g., the bucket algorithm, the inverse rules algorithm, the SVB algorithm and the M...
Complexity, or in other words compactness, of models generated by rule learners is one of often neglected issues, although it has a profound effect on the success of any project t...
