— Although cooperation generally increases the amount of resources available to a community of nodes, thus improving individual and collective performance, it also allows for the...
Recent years have witnessed the emergence and rapid growth of distributed service infrastructures such as mobile ad hoc networks, P2P, PlanetLab and Grids. In such distributed inf...
Previous approaches for computing duplicate-sensitive aggregates in sensor networks (e.g., in TAG) have used a tree topology, in order to conserve energy and to avoid double-count...

With the advancements in realtime ray tracing and new global illumination algorithms we are now able to render the most important illumination effects at interactive rates. One of...
We present an algorithm to generate samples from probability distributions on the space of curves. Traditional curve evolution methods use gradient descent to find a local minimum...
