Shadowing effects dramatically enhance the realism of virtual environments by providing useful visual cues. Shadow mapping is an efficient algorithm for real-time shadow renderin...
Microprocessor designers use techniques such as clock gating to reduce power dissipation. An unfortunate side-effect of these techniques is the processor current fluctuations th...
As the number of cores inside compute clusters continues to grow, the scalability of MPI (Message Passing Interface) is important to ensure that programs can continue to execute o...
Peer-to-Peer overlay networks have proven their efficiency for storing and retrieving data at large scale, but new services are required to take the actual performances of resour...
