Hansen, Charles D.; Whitaker, Ross T. | Streaming narrow-band algorithm: interactive computation and visualization of level sets | Abstract-Deformable isosurfaces, implemented with level-set methods, have demonstrated a great potential in visualization and computer graphics for applications such as segmentation, surface processing, and physically-based modeling. Their usefulness has been limited, however, by their high computa... | | 2004-07 |

Hansen, Charles D. | Interactive texture-based volume rendering for large data sets | Visualization is an integral part of scientific computation and simulation. State-of-the-art simulations of physical systems can generate terabytes to petabytes of time-varying data where a single time step can contain more than a gigabyte of data per variable.

Zhang, Lixin | ISIM: The simulator for the impulse adaptable memory system | This document describes ISIM, the simulator for the Impulse Adaptable Memory System. Impulse adds two new features to a conventional memory system. First, it supports a configurable, extra level of address remapping at the memory controller. Second, it supports prefetching at the memory controller. ... | ISIM; Impulse Adaptable Memory System; Memory systems | 1999 |

Stoller, Leigh B. | Message passing support in the Avalanche widget | Minimizing communication latency in message passing multiprocessing systems is critical. An emerging problem in these systems is the latency contribution costs caused by the need to percolate the message through the memory hierarchy (at both sending and receiving nodes) and the additional cost of ma... | Avalanche widget; Message passing; Cache coherence; Message copying; Cache miss rates; Computer memory | 1996 |

Hansen, Charles D. | Boundary aware reconstruction of scalar fields | In visualization, the combined role of data reconstruction and its classification plays a crucial role. In this paper we propose a novel approach that improves classification of different materials and their boundaries by combining information from the classifiers at the reconstruction stage.

Lindstrom, Gary E. | Migrating relational data to an OODB: strategies and lessions from a molecular biology experience | The growing maturity of OODB technology is causing many enterprises to consider migrating relational databases to OODBs. While data remapping is relatively straightforward, greater challenges lie in economically and non-invasively adapting legacy application software. We report on a genetics labora... | OODB; Relational data; Data migration | 1997 |

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 |

Hansen, Charles D. | Massively parallel visualization: parallel rendering | This paper presents rendering algorithms, developed for massively parallel processors (MPPs), for polygonal, spheres, and volumetric data. The polygon algorithm uses a data parallel approach whereas the sphere and volume renderer use a MIMD approach. Implementations for these algorithms are presente... | Parallel visualization; Parallel rendering; Massively parallel processors | 1995 |

Fujimoto, Richard M. | Optimal performance of distributed simulation programs | This paper describes a technique to analyze the potential speedup of distributed simulation programs. A distributed simulation strategy is proposed which minimizes execution time through the use of an oracle to control the simulation. Because the strategy relies on an oracle, it cannot be used for ... | Distributed simulation programs | 1987 |

Davis, Al | An introduction to asynchronous circuit design | The purpose of this monograph is to provide both an introduction to field of asynchronous digital circuit design and an overview of the practical state of the art in 1997. In the early days of digital circuit design, little distinction was made between synchronous and asynchronous circuits. However,... | Asynchronous circuit design | 1997 |

Breaderson, Dean J. | The I3Stick: an inexpensive, immersive, interaction device | Virtual environments require interaction devices that are intuitive and ergonomic, yet capable of many input parameters. Many devices satisfying these requirements can be expensive, difficult to manipulate, and often require the integration of large software libraries with existing applications.

Hansen, Charles D. | Proxy chain method and its application to scientific visualization | We present a method for combining multiple point-based constraints in haptic programming environments. Instead of using a single proxy point for haptic feedback, the method maintains a separate proxy for each constraint. The reaction force is computed by linking the proxies in a chain.
