Physical simulation for animation and visual effects: parallelization and characterization for chip multiprocessors
We explore the emerging application area of physics-based simulation for computer animation and visual special effects. In particular, we examine its parallelization potential and...

Confidence and Curvature Estimation of Curvilinear Structures in 3-D
In this paper we present a new method for estimating confidence and curvature of 3-D curvilinear structures. The gradient structure tensor (GST) models shift-invariance. The eigen...

A lightweight, flow-based toolkit for parallel and distributed bioinformatics pipelines
Background: Bioinformatic analyses typically proceed as chains of data-processing tasks. A pipeline, or ‘workflow’, is a well-defined protocol, with a specific structure defin...

Efficient Detection of Determinacy Races in Cilk Programs
A parallel multithreaded program that is ostensibly deterministic may nevertheless behave nondeterministically due to bugs in the code. These bugs are called determinacy races, an...

Scalable Node-Level Computation Kernels for Parallel Exact Inference
—In this paper, we investigate data parallelism in exact inference with respect to arbitrary junction trees. Exact inference is a key problem in exploring probabilistic graphical...
