Fast Soft Self-Shadowing on Dynamic Height Fields
We present a new, real-time method for rendering soft shadows from large light sources or lighting environments on dynamic height fields. The method first computes a horizon map f...

Optimizing through Co-evolutionary Avalanches
Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...

Optimizing Multi-hop Queries in ZigBee Based Multi-sink Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor networks with multiple users collecting data directly from the sensors have many potential applications. An important problem is to allocate for each user a query r...

The k-path tree matroid and its applications to survivable network design
We define the k-path tree matroid, and use it to solve network design problems in which the required connectivity is arbitrary for a given pair of nodes, and 1 for the other pairs...

Predictive modeling of the spatiotemporal evolution of an environmental hazard and its sensor network implementation
Predicting accurately the spatiotemporal evolution of a diffusive environmental hazard is of paramount importance for its effective containment. We approximate the front line of a...
