Modern architectural trends in instruction-level parallelism (ILP) are to increase the computational power of microprocessors significantly. As a result, the demands on memory ha...
A novel progressive geometry compression scheme is presented in the paper. In this scheme a mesh is represented as a base mesh followed by some groups of vertex split operations us...
Given the increasing dependence of our societies on networked information systems, the overall security of these systems should be measured and improved. Existing security metrics...
With the phenomenal growth of the WWW, rich data sources on many different subjects have become available online. Some of these sources store daily facts that often involve textual...
