This paper evaluates and compares four volume rendering algorithms that have become rather popular for rendering datasets described on uniform rectilinear grids: raycasting, splat...
Spatial data mining, i.e., discovery of interesting characteristics and patterns that may implicitly exist in spatial databases, is a challenging task due to the huge amounts of s...
Elements of transaction processing become more and more accepted as a base for general purpose distributed computing.We have developed an action concept with an extended functiona...
Recent research has shown that while many complex networks follow a power-law distribution for their node degrees, it is not sufficient to model these networks based only on their...
A realistic simulation system, which couples geometry and physics, can provide a useful toolkit for virtual environments. Interactions among moving objects in the virtual worlds a...
