Predicting reflectance functions from complex surfaces
We describe a physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulat...

Autonomous Protocols for Bandwidth-Centric Scheduling of Independent-Task Applications
In this paper we investigate protocols for scheduling applications that consist of large numbers of identical, independent tasks on large-scale computing platforms. By imposing a ...

Parallel implementation of the replica exchange molecular dynamics algorithm on Blue Gene/L
The Replica Exchange method is a popular approach for studying the folding thermodynamics of small to modest size proteins in explicit solvent, since it is easily parallelized. Ho...
