In this paper, we present a method for robustly extracting the silhouette form of the participant within an interactive environment. The approach overcomes the inherent problems as...
As technology advances into the nanometer territory, the interconnect delay has become a first-order effect on chip performance. To handle this effect, the X-architecture has been...
Today, we are witnessing a new level of scale, complexity, and pervasiveness of software systems that are designed to support much more holistically complex processes. Much richer...
The High Performance Storage System (HPSS) is a mature Hierarchical Storage Management (HSM) system that was developed around a network-centered architecture, with client access t...
Abstract. Multi-user virtual environment (MUVE) systems enable virtual participation in many applications. A MUVE usually is a complex system requiring technologies from 3D graphic...
