251 Freire, JulianaDesigning information-preserving mapping schemes for XMLAn XML-to-relational mapping scheme consists of a procedure for shredding XML documents into relational databases, a procedure for publishing databases back as documents, and a set of constraints the databases must satisfy. In previous work, we discussed two notions of information preservation for m...Losslessness; Validation; Mapping scheme; Edge++; LILO; Lossless Inlining; Lossless Outlining; XML Schema2005
252 Bruderlin, BeatDetecting ambiguities: an optimistic approach to robustness problems in computational geometryComputational geometry algorithms deal with geometric objects, usually represented by coordinates in an n-dimensional Euclidean space. Most efficient algorithms implement geometric operations as floating point arithmetic operations on the coordinates. Since floating point numbers can only approxima...Ambiguities; Computational geometry; Robustness problems1990
253 Kasera, Sneha K.Detecting receiver attacks in VRTI-based device free localizationVariance-based Radio Tomographic Imaging (VRTI) is an emerging technology that locates moving objects in areas surrounded by simple and inexpensive wireless sensor nodes. VRTI uses human motion induced variation in RSS and spatial correlation between link variations to locate and track people. An ar...2012-01-01
254 Brunvand, Erik L.DFT for fast testing of self-timed control circuitsIn this paper, we present a methodology to perform fast testing of the control path of self-timed circuits [91]. The speedup is achieved by testing all the execution paths in the control simultaneously. The circuits considered in this paper are those designed using an OCCAM based circuit compile...1995

256 Faugeras, Olivier DominiqueDigital color image processing and psychophysics within the framework of a human visual modelA three-dimensional homomorphic model of human color vision based on neurophysiological and psychophysical evidence is presented. This model permits the quantitative definition of perceptually important parameters such as brightness. saturation, huo and strength. By modelling neural interaction in t...Human visual model; Neurophysiological evidence; Psychophysical evidence1977
257 Colas-Baudelaire, PatrickDigital picture processing and psychophysics: a study of brightness perceptionA computer driven display system was used to study brightness contrast phenomena, in a project motivated by research in digital picture processing. The modeling approach was that of Stockham and Davidson: the visual system is modeled as the cascade of a linear system (eye optics) and a multiplicati...Digital picture processing; Computer driven display system; Brightness contrast1974
258 Stoller, Leigh B.Direct deposit: a basic user-level protocol for carpet clusters?This note describes the Direct Deposit Protocol (DDP), a simple protocol for multicomputing on a carpet cluster. This protocol is an example of a user-level protocol to be layered on top of the low-level, sender-based protocols for the Protocol Processing Engine. The protocol will be described in te...Direct Deposit Protocol; DDP; Carpet clusters; Multicomputing; User-level protocol1995
259 Regehr, John; Pagariya, Rohit PannalaljiDirect equivalence testingTesting embedded software is difficult. • Further complicated by presence of memory and type safety errors in software. • Compiler contain various known bugs. Developers are skeptical to upgrade the compilers. • Is your embedded software affected by memory safety and compilation erro...
260 Shirley, Peter S.Direct Ray tracing of smoothed and displacement mapped trianglesWe present an algorithm for ray tracing displacement maps that requires no additional storage over the base model. Displacement maps are rarely used in ray tracing due to the cost associated with storing and intersecting the displaced geometry. This is unfortunate because displacement maps allow the...Ray tracing displacement maps2000
261 Riesenfeld, Richard F.Discrete B-splines and subdivision techniques in compter-aided geometric design and computer graphicsThe relevant theory of discrete 5-sphnes with associated new algorithms is extended to provide a framework for understanding and implementing general subdivision schemes for nonuniform B-splines. The new derived polygon corresponding to an arbitrary refinement of the knot vector for an existing .B-...1979
262 Sobh, Tarek M.Discrete event control for inspection and reverse engineeringWe address the problem of intelligent sensing in this work. In particular, we use discrete event dynamic systems (DEDS) to guide the sensing of mechanical parts for industrial inspection and reverse engineering.Discrete event control; Intelligent sensing; Inspection; Discrete event dynamic systems; DEDS1994
263 Evans, DavidDisplay of complex three dimensional finite element modelsComplex three dimensional models can be displayed after an automatic generation of a finite element (panel) mapping. although this automatic generation algorithm fails at certain levels of model complexity, the elimination of these failures can be accomplished through user interaction. This report p...Three dimensional models; Finite element models1978
264 Peterson, John W.Distributed computation for computer animationComputer animation is a very computationally intensive task. Recent developments in image synthesis, such as shadows, reflections and motion blur enhance the quality of computer animation, but also dramatically increase the amount of CPU time needed to do it. Fortunately, the computations involved w...Distributed computation1987
265 Parker, Steven G.; Hansen, Charles D.Distributed interactive ray tracing for large volume visualizationWe have constructed a distributed parallel ray tracing system that interactively produces isosurface renderings from large data sets on a cluster of commodity PCs. The program was derived from the SCI Institute's interactive ray tracer (*-Ray), which utilizes small to large shared memory platforms, ...Ray tracing; Volume rendering; Large data; Cluster computing; Distributed shared memory2003
266 Thompson, William B.; Willemsen, Peter; Gooch, Amy A.; Creem-Regehr, Sarah HopeDoes the quality of the computer graphics matter when judging distances in visually immersive environments?In the real world, people are quite accurate judging distances to locations in the environment, at least for targets resting on the ground plane and distances out to about 20m. Distance judgments in visually immersive environments are much less accurate. Several studies have now shown that in vis...Visually immersive environments2002-12-05
267 Riloff, Ellen M.Domain-specific coreference resolution with lexicalized featuresMost coreference resolvers rely heavily on string matching, syntactic properties, and semantic attributes of words, but they lack the ability to make decisions based on individual words. In this paper, we explore the benefits of lexicalized features in the setting of domain-specific coreference reso...2014-01-01

269 Kessler, Robert R.DPOS: A metalanguage and programming environment for parallel processorsThe complexity and diversity of parallel programming languages and computer architectures hinders programmers in developing programs and greatly limits program portability. All MIMD parallel programming systems, however, address common requirements for process creation, process management, and inte...DPOS; MIMD parallel programming1990
270 Lepreau, JayDRAFT: work in progress - - - comments solicited evolving Mach 3.0 to use migrating threadsLike most operating systems, Mach 3.0 views threads as statically associated with a single task. An alternative model is that of migrating threads, in which a single thread abstraction moves between tasks with the logical flow of control, and "server" code is passively executed. We have compatibly r...DRAFT1993

273 Balasubramonian, RajeevDynamic hardware-assisted software-controlled page placement to manage capacity allocation and sharing within large cachesIn future multi-cores, large amounts of delay and power will be spent accessing data in large L2/L3 caches. It has been recently shown that OS-based page coloring allows a non-uniform cache architecture (NUCA) to provide low latencies and not be hindered by complex data search mechanisms.
