A central problem in extending the von Neumann architecture to petaflop computers with millions of hardware threads and with a shared memory is defining the memory model [Lam79,...
Our work is motivated by the problem of ranking hyperlinked documents for a given query. Given an arbitrary directed graph with edge and node labels, we present a new flow-based ...
The study of 2D shapes is a central problem in the field of computer vision. In 2D shape analysis, classification and recognition of objects from their observed silhouette are e...
Middleware technologies such as Web Services, CORBA and DCOM have been very successful in solving distributed computing problems for a large family of application domains. As midd...
Given a scene consisting of objects, ray shooting queries answer with the first object encountered by a given ray, and are used in ray tracing and radiosity for rendering photo-r...
