Neff, Rick | Versatile interaction specification of tools and agents | Vista is a software infrastructure addressing the vexing problem of software tool interaction?especially how to get egocentric tools to work well together. Vista neither assumes nor requires that tools or tool-mediating agents understand a cooperative messaging protocol, only that they share some c... | Vista; software infrastructure; software tool interaction | 1994 |

Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh | Bounded transaction model checking | Industrial cache coherence protocol models often have too many reachable states, preventing full reachability analysis even for small model instances (number of processors, addresses, etc.). Several partial search debugging methods are, therefore, employed, including lossy state compression using... | Model checking; Reachability analysis | 2006-02-27 |

Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh | A partial order reduction algorithm without the Proviso | This paper presents a partial order reduction algorithm, called Two phase, that preserves stutter free LTL properties. Two phase dramatically reduces the number of states visited compared to previous partial order reduction algorithms on most practical protocols. The reason can be traced to a step o... | Order reduction algorithm; Proviso step | 1998 |

Kessler, Robert R. | Visual threads: the benefits of multithreading in visual programming languages | After working with the CWave visual programming language, we discovered that many of our target domains required the ability to define parallel computations within a program. CWave has a strongly hierarchical model of computation, so it seemed like adding the ability to take a part of the hierarchy ... | Visual threads; multithreading; CWave | 1997 |

Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh | Performance studies of PV: an On-the-fly model-checker for LTL-X featuring selective caching and partial order reduction | We present an enumerative model-checker PV that uses a new partial order reduction algorithm called Twophase. This algorithm does not use the in-stack check to implement the proviso, making the combination of Twophase with on-the-fly LTL-X model-checking based on nested depth-first search, as well a... | Model-checker; PV; Performance; On-the-fly; Partial order reduction algorithm;' Twophase | 2001 |

Gooch, Bruce; Reinhard, Erik | Perception-driven black-and-white drawings and caricatures | In this paper, we present a method for automatically creating black-and-white drawings of human faces from photographs. We then demonstrate new techniques for deforming these drawings to create caricatures intended to highlight and exaggerate facial features. A number of psychophysical studies we... | Caricatures; Human faces | 2002-01-22 |

Hansen, Charles D. | Volume Ray casting with peak finding and differential sampling | Direct volume rendering and isosurfacing are ubiquitous rendering techniques in scientific visualization, commonly employed in imaging 3D data from simulation and scan sources. Conventionally, these methods have been treated as separate modalities, necessitating different sampling strategies and ren... | | 2009-11 |

Parker, Steven G.; Hansen, Charles D.; Johnson, Christopher R. | Computational steering and the SCIRun integrated problem solving environment | SCIRun is a problem solving environment that allows the interactive construction, debugging, and steering of large-scale scientific computations. We review related systems and introduce a taxonomy that explores different computational steering solutions. Considering these approaches, we discuss why ... | Computational steering; Problem solving environment; SCIRun; Volume rendering | 1997 |

Keller, Robert M. | Semantics of networks containing indeterminate operators | We discuss a denotational semantics for networks containing indeterminate operators. Our approach is based on modelling a networks by the set of all its possible behaviors. Our notion of behavior is a sequence of computational actions. The primitive computational action is an event: the appearance o... | | 1984 |

Kirby, Robert Michael II | On the use of adjoint-based sensitivity estimates to control local mesh refinement | The goal of efficient and robust error control, through local mesh adaptation in the computational solution of partial differential equations, is predicated on the ability to identify in an a posteriori way those localized regions whose refinement will lead to the most significant reductions in the ... | Sensitivity; Adaptivity; Error estimation; hp-finite elements; Discrete adjoint; Mesh refinement | 2009 |

Brown, Bruce Eric | Modeling of solids for three-dimensional finite element analysis | The geometric modeling of solid objects is a major problem within the design analysis loop of the engineering design process. Models are analyzed by various computer programs to predict their performance. The format of each model is usually different for each analysis routine.

Keller, Robert M. | Semantics of parallel program graphs | A denotational model for networks of parallel processes is presented which generalizes the work of Kahn by using alternative data types, e.g. Lisp-like operators on trees. It is shown that the ordering aspect of data types plays a central role in determining how much parallelism can be present.

Lindstrom, Gary E. | Modular language processors as framework completions | The conceptual and specificational power of denotational semantics for programming language design has been amply demonstrated.

Lindstrom, Gary E. | Toward function-based distributed database systems | We discuss the suitability of a function-based (or "applicative") approach to the construction of distributed database systems.
