The progress of GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) technology opens a new avenue for boosting computing power. This work is an attempt to exploit GPU for accelerating VLSI circuit opt...
Query optimizers in current database management systems (DBMS) often face problems such as intolerably long optimization time and/or poor optimization results when optimizing compl...
Shape of an object is an important feature for image and multimedia similarity retrievals. In our previous studies we introduced a new boundary-based technique (MBC-based) for shap...
Power-efficient design requires reducing power dissipation in all parts of the design and during all stages of the design process subject to constraints on the system performance ...
In this paper, we introduce an analytical expression for the expected distortion of a single layer encoded video bit-stream. Based on the expected distortion model, we propose a d...
