Reducing power consumption has become a major challenge in the design and operation of today's computer systems. This chapter describes different techniques addressing this c...
In this paper, we present a new visibility-based feature extraction algorithm from discrete models as dense point clouds resulting from laser scans. Based on the observation that ...
r acceptance of FPGAs as a computing device requires a higher level of programming abstraction. ROCCC is an optimizing C to HDL compiler. We describe the code generation approach i...
A primary goal of program performance understanding tools is to focus the user's attention directly on optimization opportunities where significant cost savings may be found....
We present a novel technique for generating animation of laughter for a character. Our approach utilizes an anatomically inspired, physics-based model of a human torso that includ...
