: Wide area network (WAN) -based distributed computing (DC) has become an active field of research, especially under the label of grid computing. On the other hand, research on WAN...
Production grids are complex and highly variable systems whose behavior is not well understood and difficult to anticipate. The goal of this study is to estimate the impact of the ...
In the past, efficient parallel algorithms have always been developed specifically for the successive generations of parallel systems (vector machines, shared-memory machines, d...
This paper addresses the problem of computing visual hulls from image contours. We propose a new hybrid approach which overcomes the precision-complexity trade-off inherent to vox...
TOPSAW program was developed by Dr. S. Chang and his team and has been successfully used in the replication of sawmill cutting to determine the optimal cutting pattern for a log t...
