— In this work we show that a metaheuristic, the Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS), can be effectively used in order to improve the performance of the hardware–friendly versio...
—The central paradigm of today’s successful Internet is to keep the network core simple and move complexity towards the network end points. Unfortunately, this very paradigm li...
Animated crowds are effective to increase realism in virtual reality applications. However, rendering crowds require large computational power. In this paper, we present a techniq...
Efficient and visually compelling reproduction of effects due to multiple scattering in participating media remains one of the most difficult tasks in computer graphics. Althoug...
In order to produce MPI applications that perform well on today’s parallel architectures, programmers need effective tools for collecting and analyzing performance data. Because ...
