Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVEs) show great promise in domains such as education. Instead of using 3D space to weakly imitate physical classrooms, educators can create 3D...
The Distributed Probabilistic Protocol (DPP) is a new, approximate algorithm for solving Distributed Constraint Satisfaction Problems (DCSPs) that exploits prior knowledge to impr...
The use of Collaborative Virtual Geographic Environments (CVGE) is one of the most promising uses of virtual reality in geographic field. Data collaboration can support multi-direc...
The dream of pervasive multimedia retrieval and reuse will not be realized without incorporating semantics in the multimedia database. As video data is penetrating many informatio...
We propose a high performance architecture for fractional motion estimation and Lagrange mode decision in H.264/AVC. Instead of time-consuming fractional-pixel interpolation and s...
