Realistic Reflections and Refractions on Graphics Hardware with Hybrid Rendering and Layered Environment Maps
We introduce hybrid rendering, a scheme that dynamically ray traces the local geometry of reflective and refractive objects, but approximates more distant geometry by hardwaresupp...

Decentralized algorithms using both local and random probes for P2P load balancing
We study randomized algorithms for placing a sequence of n nodes on a circle with unit perimeter. Nodes divide the circle into disjoint arcs. We desire that a newly-arrived node (...
