We provide a method whereby, given mode and (upper approximation) type information, we can detect procedures and goals that can be guaranteed to not fail (i.e., to produce at leas...
We present a simple method for rendering directly from compressed textures in hardware and software rendering systems. Textures are compressed using a vector quantization (VQ) met...
The data distribution problem is very complex, because it involves trade-offdecisions between minimizing communication and maximizing parallelism. A common approach towards solving...
