Physically-based modeling has been used in the past to support a variety of interactive modeling tasks including free-form surface design, mechanism design, constrained drawing, a...
In this paper we describe a new tool for interactive free-form fair surface design. By generalizing classical discrete Fourier analysis to two-dimensional discrete surface signals...
We study the problem of e cient maintenance of materialized views that may contain duplicates. This problem is particularly important when queries against such views involve aggre...
The Pentium computer chip’s division algorithm relies on a table from which five entries were inadvertently omitted, with the result that 1738 single precision dividenddivisor ...
The spatial join operation is benchmarked using variants of well-known spatial data structures such as the R-tree, R-tree, R+-tree, and the PMR quadtree. The focus is on a spatia...
