— Molecular Dynamics (MD) is an important atomistic simulation technique, with widespread use in computational chemistry, biology, and materials. An important limitation of MD is...
We present new techniques for computing illumination from non-diffuse luminaires and scattering from non-diffuse surfaces. The methods are based on new closed-form expressions d...
We study stochastic models to mitigate the risk of poor Quality-of-Service (QoS) in computational markets. Consumers who purchase services expect both price and performance guaran...
This paper describes an application in high-performance signal processing using reconfigurable computing engines: a 250 MHz cross-correlator for radio astronomy. Experimental resu...
Cast shadows induced by moving objects often cause serious problems to many vision applications. We present in this paper an online statistical learning approach to model the backg...
