Background modeling and subtraction is a fundamental task in many computer vision and video processing applications. We present a novel probabilistic background modeling and subtr...
Parallel file systems are widely used in clusters to provide high performance I/O. However, most of the existing parallel file systems are based on UNIX-like operating systems. W...
We present a new method for rapidly computing shadows from semi-transparent objects like hair. Our deep opacity maps method extends the concept of opacity shadow maps by using a d...
Many scientific applications use parallel I/O to meet the low latency and high bandwidth I/O requirement. Among many available parallel I/O operations, collective I/O is one of th...

As high performance clusters continue to grow in size, the mean time between failure shrinks. Thus, the issues of fault tolerance and reliability are becoming one of the challengi...
