Rendering of Bézier Surfaces on Handheld Devices
(Vaclav Skala - Union Agency, 2013)
[Abstract] Bézier surfaces have been widely employed in the designing of complex scenes with high-quality results. Nevertheless, parametric surfaces cannot be directly rendered in the current GPUs of modern handheld devices. ...
High-Speed FPGA Architecture for CABAC Decoding Acceleration in H.264/AVC Standard
(Springer New York LLC, 2013-08)
[Abstract] Video encoding and decoding are computing intensive applications that require high performance processors or dedicated hardware. Video decoding offers a high parallel processing potential that may be exploited. ...
Communication avoiding and overlapping for numerical linear algebra
(IEEE Computer Society, 2013-02-25)
[Abstract] To efficiently scale dense linear algebra problems to future exascale systems, communication cost must be avoided or overlapped. Communication-avoiding 2.5D algorithms improve scalability by reducing inter-processor ...
A Novel Compiler Support for Automatic Parallelization on Multicore Systems
(Elsevier, 2013-09)
[Abstract] The widespread use of multicore processors is not a consequence of significant advances in parallel programming. In contrast, multicore processors arise due to the complexity of building power-efficient, ...
Self-Organized Multi-Camera Network for a Fast and Easy Deployment of Ubiquitous Robots in Unknown Environments
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2013)
To bring cutting edge robotics from research centres to social environments, the robotics community must start providing affordable solutions: the costs must be reduced and the quality and usefulness of the robot services ...
A population-based iterated greedy algorithm for the delimitation and zoning of rural settlements
(Pergamon Press, 2013)
[Abstract] In this paper we present a Population-Based Iterated Greedy (PBIG) algorithm for delimiting and zoning rural settlements. Each cadastral plots is allocated to a category (traditional–historical, common or none) ...
Improving Scalability of Application-Level Checkpoint-Recovery by Reducing Checkpoint Sizes
(Springer Japan KK, 2013)
[Abstract] The execution times of large-scale parallel applications on nowadays multi/many-core systems are usually longer than the mean time between failures. Therefore, parallel applications must tolerate hardware failures ...
Web-GIS tool for the management of rural land markets. Application to the Land Bank of Galicia (NWSpain)
(Springer, 2013)
[Abstract] Land abandonment and stagnation of rural markets in the last few years have become one of the main concerns of rural administrations. The use of Web and GIS (Geographic Information System) technologies can help ...
A framework for argument-based task synchronization with automatic detection of dependencies
(Elsevier, 2013)
[Abstract] Synchronization in parallel applications can be achieved either implicitly or explicitly. Implicit synchronization is typical of programming environments that provide predefined, and often simple, patterns of ...
An Algorithm Template for Domain-Based Parallel Irregular Algorithms
(Springer, 2013)
[Abstract] The parallelization of irregular algorithms has not been as widely studied as the one of regular codes. In particular, while there are many proposals of parallel skeletons and libraries very well suited to regular ...
