We consider the problem of finding two parallel rectangles, in arbitrary orientation, covering a given set of n points in a plane, such that the area of the larger rectangle is m...
Many performance problems observed in high end systems are actually caused by the runtime system and not the application code. Detecting these cases will require parallel performa...

Markov random field models provide a robust formulation of low-level vision problems. Among the problems, stereo vision remains the most investigated field. The belief propagation...
