      [Abstract]: Ground point filtering on national-level datasets is a challenge due to the presence of multiple types of landscapes. This limitation does not simply affect to individual users, but it is in particular relevant ...
    • New Tridiagonal Systems Solvers on GPU Architectures 

      Pérez Diéguez, Adrián; Amor, Margarita; Doallo, Ramón (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015)
      [Abstract]: Modern GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) offer very high computing power at relatively low cost. Nevertheless, designing efficient algorithms for the GPUs usually requires additional time and effort, even for ...
    • Parallel Hierarchical Radiosity on Hybrid Platforms 

      Padrón, Emilio J.; Amor, Margarita; Bóo, Montserrat; Doallo, Ramón; Rodríguez, Gabriel (Springer Verlag, 2011-12)
      [Abstract] Achieving an efficient realistic illumination is an important aim of research in computer graphics. In this paper a new parallel global illumination method for hybrid systems based on the hierarchical radiosity ...
    • Parallel Monte Carlo radiosity using scene partitioning 

      Sanjurjo Amado, José Rodrigo; Amor, Margarita; Bóo, Montserrat; Doallo, Ramón (SAGE, 2013-08)
      [Abstract]: Global illumination provides realistic image synthesis but its high computational requirements limit its use in practice. In this paper we present a parallel method of the Monte Carlo radiosity method. Our ...
    • Parallel prefix operations on GPU: tridiagonal system solvers and scan operators 

      Pérez Diéguez, Adrián; Amor, Margarita; Doallo, Ramón (Springer New York LLC, 2019)
      [Abstract]: Modern GPUs can achieve high computing power at low cost, but still requires much time and effort. Tridiagonal system and scan solvers are one example of widely used algorithms which can take advantage of these ...
    • Parallelization of shallow water simulations on current multi-threaded systems 

      Lobeiras Blanco, Jacobo; Viñas Buceta, Moisés; Amor, Margarita; Fraguela, Basilio B.; Arenaz Silva, Manuel; García Rodríguez, José Antonio; Castro, M.J. (SAGE Journals, 2013-11)
      [Abstract]: In this work, several parallel implementations of a numerical model of pollutant transport on a shallow water system are presented. These parallel implementations are developed in two phases. First, the sequential ...
    • Portable and efficient FFT and DCT algorithms with the Heterogeneous Butterfly Processing Library 

      Vázquez Pardo, Sergio; Amor, Margarita; Fraguela, Basilio B. (Elsevier, 2019-03)
      [Abstract]: The existence of a wide variety of computing devices with very different properties makes essential the development of software that is not only portable among them, but which also adapts to the properties of ...
    • Rendering of Bézier Surfaces on Handheld Devices 

      Concheiro, Raquel; Amor, Margarita; Padrón, Emilio J.; Gil, Marisa; Martorell, Xavier (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. ...
