Let Ng(f ) denote the number of rooted maps of genus g having f edges. An exact formula for Ng(f ) is known for g = 0 (Tutte, 1963), g = 1 (Arques, 1987), g = 2,3 (Bender and Canf...
The development of lightweight sensing and communication protocols is a key requirement for designing resource constrained sensor networks. This paper introduces a set of efficien...
We present a recursive algorithm for 3D surface reconstruction based on Photometric Stereo in the presence of highlights, and self and cast shadows. We assume that the surface reļ...
This paper considers enumeration of substring equivalence classes introduced by Blumer et al. [1]. They used the equivalence classes to define an index structure called compact dir...
The Palette is a digital appliance designed for intuitive control of electronic slide shows. Current interfaces demand too much of our attention to permit effective computer use i...
