A family of axially symmetric mirror shapes are proposed for panoramic imaging. These shapes keep the resolution in the image invariant to changes in elevation in the scene. In ot...
Manyimportant physical phenomena,such as temperature distribution, air flow, and acoustic waves,are describedas continuous,distributed parameterfields. Analyzingandcontrolling the...
Let D be a weighted directed graph cellularly embedded in a surface of genus g, orientable or not, possibly with boundary. We describe algorithms to compute a shortest non-contrac...
Despite impressive advances in file system throughput resulting from technologies such as high-bandwidth networks and disk arrays, file system latency has not improved and in many...
Understanding user intent is key to designing an effective ranking system in a search engine. In the absence of any explicit knowledge of user intent, search engines want to diver...
