Though synchronous dataflow (SDF) graph has been a successful input specification language for digital signal processing (DSP) applications, lack of support for global states makes...
Recent progress of computer and network technologies makes it possible to store and retrieve a large volume of multimedia data in many applications. In such applications, efficien...
There are various techniques for simulating crowds, however, in most cases the quality of the simulation is measured by examining its “look-and-feel”. Even if the aggregate mov...
Metaballs are implicit surfaces widely used to model curved objects, represented by the isosurface of a density field defined by a set of points. Recently, the results of particle...
This paper explores a new technique called coherence decoupling, which breaks a traditional cache coherence protocol into two protocols: a Speculative Cache Lookup (SCL) protocol ...
