Abstract. Sparse matrix-vector multiplication is an important computational kernel that tends to perform poorly on modern processors, largely because of its high ratio of memory op...
The design of complex systems requires powerful mechanisms for modeling state, concurrent events, and real-time behavior; as well as for visualising and structuring systems in ord...
We present an interactive system, which allows the user to produce drawings in a variety of traditional styles. It takes as input an image and performs semi-automatic tonal modelin...
Preserving and fostering knowledge is the vital interest of a network-like virtual organization. The decentralized and geographically distributed organizational structure inhibits...
