Dynamically reconfigurable architectures or systems are able to reconfigure their function and/or structure to suit changing needs of a computation during run time. The increasing...
Texture mapping has become indispensable in image synthesis as an inexpensive source of rich visual detail. Less obvious, but just as useful, is its ability to mask image errors d...
