We describe a novel variational segmentation algorithm designed to split an image in two regions based on their intensity distributions. A functional is proposed to integrate the ...
We present a method to measure reflectance and texture of surfaces in a one step process. For later use in digital image synthesis it is mandatory to separate the gathered intensi...
Clusters of workstations are a popular alternative to integrated parallel systems designed and built by a vendor. Besides their huge cumulative processing power, they also provide...
Chip-multiprocessors are becoming the dominant vehicle for general-purpose processing, and parallel software will be needed to effectively utilize them. This parallel software is ...
The interconnect mechanisms (shared bus or crossbar) used in current chip-multiprocessors (CMPs) are expected to become a bottleneck that prevents these architectures from scaling...
