In contrast to a large body of theoretical work on computer systems, distributed systems are not idealised constructions, unconstrained by physical world limitations. They must be...
We address the normal reconstruction problem by photometric stereo using a uniform and dense set of photometric images captured at fixed viewpoint. Our method is robust to spurio...
Good network hardware performance is often squandered by overheads for accessing the network interface (NI) within a host. NIs that support user-level messaging avoid frequent ope...
In order for collective communication routines to achieve high performance on different platforms, they must be able to adapt to the system architecture and use different algori...
A number of software packages are available for the construction of comprehensive human genetic maps. In this paper we parallelize the widely used package Genehunter. We restrict ...
