To adapt the data rate in accordance with the quality of the link, the IEEE 802.11 standard proposes the variable rate shifting functionality. This intrinsic functionality of the ...
The accurate generation of soft shadows is a particularly computationally intensive task. In order to reduce rendering time, most real-time and offline applications decorrelate th...
The visibility function in direct illumination describes the binary visibility over a light source, e.g., an environment map. Intuitively, the visibility is often strongly correla...
Numerous biological functions--such as enzymatic catalysis, the immune response system, and the DNA-protein regulatory network--rely on the ability of molecules to specifically rec...
This paper describes a Genetic Algorithms approach to a manpower-scheduling problem arising at a major UK hospital. Although Genetic Algorithms have been successfully used for sim...
