Beazley, David. M. | A wrapper generation tool for the creation of scriptable scientific applications | In recent years, there has been considerable interest in the use of scripting languages as a mechanism for controlling and developing scientific software. Scripting languages allow scientific applications to be encapsulated in an interpreted environment similar to that found in commercial scientific... | | 1998 |

Awasthi, Manu; Nellans, David W.; Sudan, Kshitij; Balasubramonian, Rajeev | ABP : predictor based management of DRAM row buffers | DRAM accesses are costly, especially in multicore systems. Future CMPs will run a mixed load of workloads/threads. Destructive interference at memory controller, spatio-temporal locality lost! DRAM row-buffer hits are least expensive, row-conflicts are most. Randomized memory access patterns re... | | 2010-10-06 |

Panangaden, Prakash | Abstract interpretation and indeterminacy | We present a semantic theory that allows us to discuss the semantics of indeterminate operators in a dataflow network. The assumption is made that the language in which the indeterminate operators are written has a construct that allows for the testing of availability of data on input lines. We then... | Semantics; Indeterminate operators | 1984 |

Lindstrom, Gary E. | Abstract semantics for functional constraint programming | A denotational semantics is given for a lazy functional language with monotonic side-effects arising from the unification of singly-bound logical variables. The semantics is based on a Scott-style information system, which elegantly captures the notion of "constraint additin" inherent in unificati... | Abstract semantics | 1989 |

Hansen, Charles D. | Accelerated isosurface extraction in time-varying fields | For large time-varying data sets, memory and disk limitations can lower the performance of visualization applications. Algorithms and data structures must be explicitly designed to handle these data sets in order to achieve more interactive rates. The Temporal Branch-on-Need Octree (T-BON) extends t... | Isosurfaces; Time-dependent scalar field visualization; Multiresolution methods; Octree; Bricking; Unstructured grid visualization; Out-of-core visualization | 2000 |

Callahan, Michael Wayne | Acoustic signal processing based on the short-time spectrum | The frequency domain representation of a time signal afforded by the Fourier transform is a powerful tool in acoustic signal processing. The usefulness of this representation is rooted in the mechanisms of sound production and perception. Many sources of sound exhibit normal modes or natural frequen... | Acoustic signal processing | 1976 |

Brunvand, Erik L. | ACT: A DFT tool for self-timed circuits | This paper presents a Design for Testability (DFT) tool called ACT (Asynchronous Circuit Testing) which uses a partial scan technique to make macro-module based selftimed circuits testable. The ACT tool is the first oFits kind for testing macro-module based self-timed circuits. ACT modifies design... | | 1997 |

Sobh, Tarek M. | Active inspection and reverse engineering | We propose a new design for inspection and reverse engineering environments. In particular, we investigate the use of discrete event dynamic systems (DEDS) to guide and control the active exploration and sensing of mechanical parts for industrial inspection and reverse engineering. We introduce dyn... | Discrete event dynamic systems; DEDS; Industrial inspection | 1993 |

Organick, Elliott I. | ADA to silicon transformations: the outline of a method | This report explores the contention that a high-order language specification of a machine (such as an Ada program) can be methodically transformed into a hardware representation of that machine. One series of well-defined steps through which such transformations can take place is presented in this i... | ADA program; High-order language specification | 1982 |

Carter, Tony M. | Ada-to-silicon compiler study (Final Report 30 Jan 85 - 30 Jun 86) | The vision of a system design environment in which both hardware and software components could be designed, tested, and executed was proffered by the late Dr. Elliott Organick1 in 1981. He was impressed by the objectiveness of Ada and the availability of an architecture (the Intel 432) which was sp... | ADA language | 1986 |

Berzins, Martin | Adaptive high-order discontinuous galerkin solution of elastohydrodynamic lubrication point contact problems | This paper describes an adaptive implementation of a high order Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method for the solution of elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) point contact problems. These problems arise when modelling the thin lubricating film between contacts which are under sufficiently high pressur... | | 2012-01-01 |

Henderson, Thomas C. | Agent-based engineering drawing analysis | Interpretation of paper drawings has received a good deal of attention over the last decade. Related areas such as direct interpretation of human drawings (HCI), search and indexing of graphics databases, and knowledge representation in the domain of graphics and drawing understanding have also s... | Interpretation; Human drawings; HCI; Graphic databases | 2002-02-04 |

Crow, Franklin C. | The aliasing problem in computer-synthesized shaded images | This paper describes work toward improving the quality of computer-synthesized shaded images. Current (practical) hidden-surface algorithms produce an image whose precision is strictly limited by the number of picture elements. Problems caused by this limitation are described and explained in the t... | aliasing problem; shaded images; hidden-surface algorithms | 1976 |

Lindstrom, Gary E. | Alpha-beta pruning on evolving game trees | The alpha-beta strategy is a widely used method for economizing on the size of game trees. Heretofore, its application has been limited to depth-first tree growth in recursive search functions. However, many modern game players use retentive (i.e. coroutine-based) control to achieve greater attentio... | Alpha-beta pruning; Game trees | 1979 |

George, Lal | An abstract machine for parallel graph reduction | An abstract machine suitable for parallel graph reduction on a shared memory multiprocessor is described. Parallel programming is plagued with subtle race conditions resulting in deadlock or fatal system errors. Due to the nondeterministic nature of program execution the utilization of resources ma... | Parallel graph reduction; Abstract machines | 1989 |

George, Lal | An abstract machine for parallel graph reduction | An abstract machine for parallel graph reduction on a shared memory multiprocessor is described. This is intended primarily for normal order (lazy) evaluation of functional programs.

Subrahmanyam, P.A. | An algebraic formulation of seitz's weak conditions for self timed circuits | Two fairly intuitive conditions are given that serve to algebraically characterize Seitz's "weak conditions" for self timed circuits. It is shown that these two conditions embody the 12 temporal logic conditions (developed b y Owicki and Malachi) which are intended to express both the weak condition... | Seitz's weak conditions; Self-timed circuits | 1982 |

Shirley, Peter S. | An anisotropic phong light reflection model | We present a new BRDF model that attempts to combine the advantages of the various empirical models currently in use. In particular, it has intuitive parameters, is anisotropic, energy-conserving, reciprocal, has an appropriate non-Lambertian diffuse term, and is well-suited for use in a Monte Carlo... | BRDF model; Anisotropic; Phong light reflection model | 2000 |

Keller, Robert M. | An approach to determinacy proofs | It is known that any parallel program graph composed of continuous operators itself represents a continuous function. In other words, the network is determinate in the sense that for a given input, the output is unique, independent of the timing of the constituent operators. This result is applied t... | Parallel program graph; Determinacy proofs | 1978 |

Henderson, Thomas C. | An approach to three-dimensional scene databases | Current image database research is concerned for the most part with the encoding and processing of two-dimensional images. However, the most successful approach to computer vision is based on 3-dimensional information, organized as either stacks of 2-D images (e.g., the intrinsic images of Barrow an... | Image databases; Three-dimensional; Scene databases | 1987 |

Keller, Robert M.; Lindstrom, Gary E. | An architecture for a loosely-coupled parallel processor | An architecture for a large (e. g. 1000 processor) parallel computer is presented. The processors are loosely-coupled, in the sense that communication among them is fully asynchronous, and each processor is generally not unduly delayed by any immediate need for specific data values. The network supp... | Loosely-coupled; Parallel processors | 1978 |
