Differential quantities, including normals, curvatures, principal directions, and associated matrices, play a fundamental role in geometric processing and physics-based modeling. ...
Query processing in traditional information management systems has moved from an exact match model to more flexible paradigms allowing cooperative retrieval by aggregating the dat...

Abstract. Many modelling languages have both a textual and a graphical form. The relationship between these two forms ought to be clear and concrete, but is instead commonly unders...
We present a method for real-time image based simulation of gaseous material such as fire and smoke. We model the kinematics of these phenomena by a mass-spring system, and their ...
Today, there are several approaches supporting an integrated processing of XML and (object-)relational data sources. However, each of these approaches favors a single data model f...
