Current parallelizing compilers for message-passing machines only support a limited class of data-parallel applications. One method for eliminating this restriction is to combine ...
This paper describes a scalable parallel marking technique for garbage collection that does not employ any synchronization operation. To achieve good scalability, two major design...
Machine perception can benefit from the use of features extracted from data provided by a variety of sensor modalities. Recent advances in sensor design makes it possible to incor...
We present a technique for evaluating the usability and effectiveness of ambient displays. Ambient displays are and aesthetic peripheral displays portraying non-critical informati...

It is well-known that wavelet transforms provide sparse decompositions over many types of image regions but not over image singularities/edges that manifest themselves along curve...
