Situational awareness of urban flooding during storm events is important for disaster and emergency management. However, no general purpose tools yet exist for rendering rainfall ...
In this paper, we present a method to speed up video encoding of GPU rendered scenes. Modern video codecs, like H.264/AVC, are based on motion compensation and support partitionin...
Exponentially rising cooling/packaging costs due to high power density call for architectural and software-level thermal management. Dynamic thermal management (DTM) techniques co...
Elevated chip temperatures are true limiters to the scalability of computing systems. Excessive runtime thermal variations compromise the performance and reliability of integrated...
Embedded cryptosystems show increased vulnerabilities to implementation attacks such as power analysis. CMOS technology trends are causing increased process variations which impac...
