Abstract. Simple and unified non-operational specifications of the three memory consistency models Total Store Ordering (TSO), Partial Store Ordering (PSO), and Relaxed Memory Orde...
Replication is known to offer high availability in the presence of failures. This paper considers the case of a client making invocations on a group of replicated servers. It iden...
The photon map method allows efficient computation of global illumination in general scenes. Individual photon hits, generated using Monte Carlo particle tracing, are stored in the...
The Partitioned Based Spatial-Merge Join (PBSM) of Patel and DeWitt and the Size Separation Spatial Join (S3 J) of Koudas and Sevcik are considered to be among the most efficient ...
Ray tracing produces point samples of an image from a 3-D model. Constructing an antialiased digital picture from point samples is difficult without resorting to extremely high sa...
