Abstract—Recent results have shown that the feasibility problem of scheduling periodic tasks with self-suspensions is NPhard in the strong sense. We observe that a variation of t...
Abstract—IEEE 802.16e WiMAX is a promising new technology for broadband access networks. Amongst the class of applications that can be supported is real time video services (such...
We present a simple but powerful algorithm for optimizing the usage of hardware occlusion queries in arbitrary complex scenes. Our method minimizes the number of issued queries an...
