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.

Mathew, Binu K.; Davis, Al; Fang, Zhen | A Gaussian probability accelerator for SPHINX 3 | Accurate real-time speech recognition is not currently possible in the mobile embedded space where the need for natural voice interfaces is clearly important. The continuous nature of speech recognition coupled with an inherently large working set creates significant cache interference with other... | Speech recognition; SPHINX 3; Speech recognizers | 2003-07-22 |

Hansen, Charles D. | Reconstruction and visualization of planetary nebulae | Abstract-From our terrestrially confined viewpoint, the actual three-dimensional shape of distant astronomical objects is, in general, very challenging to determine. For one class of astronomical objects, however, spatial structure can be recovered from conventional 2D images alone. So-called planet... | 2005-09 | |

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. Constraints a... | 2006 | |

Pickett, Forrest B. | Simulation of Cells | A self-timed cell set and library for the design of integrated circuits is presented. The cell set and library are two different cellular methods of designing integrated circuits. These have been incorporated to form a hybrid system which exploits the advantages provided by each. The cell set an... | Self-timed; Cell set | 1984 |

Bhanu, Bir | Segmentation of complex outdoor scenes | A new simpler approach to image segmentation via recursive region splitting and merging is presented. Unlike other techniques the kernel of splitting is based on a generalization of a two class gradient relaxation method and merging uses a statistical analysis of variance. | Image segmentation; Outdoor scenes; Recursive region splitting; Segmentation algorithm | 1985 |

Hansen, Charles D. | Illustrative interactive stipple rendering | Abstract-Simulating hand-drawn illustration can succinctly express information in a manner that is communicative and informative. We present a framework for an interactive direct stipple rendering of volume and surface-based objects. By combining the principles of artistic and scientific illustratio... | 2003-04 | |

Yang, Yue; Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh; Lindstrom, Gary E. | Formalizing the Java Memory Model for multithreaded program correctness and optimization | Standardized language level support for threads is one of the most important features of Java. However, defining and understanding the Java Memory Model (JMM) has turned out to be a big challenge. Several models produced to date are not as easily comparable as first thought. Given the growing inte... | Java Memory Model; JMM; Multithreaded program | 2002-04-02 |

Hansen, Charles D.; Tasdizen, Tolga | Statistically quantitative volume visualization | Visualization users are increasingly in need of techniques for assessing quantitative uncertainty and error in the images produced. Statistical segmentation algorithms compute these quantitative results, yet volume rendering tools typically produce only qualitative imagery via transfer function-base... | Volume visualization; Uncertainty; Classification; Risk analysis | 2005 |

Henderson, Thomas C.; Bhanu, Bir | CAGD based 3-D visual recognition | A coherent automated manufacturing system needs to include CAD/CAM, computer vision, and object manipulation. Currently, most systems which support CAD/CAM do not provide for vision or manipulation and similarly, vision and manipulation systems incorporate no explicit relation to CAD/CAM models. CAD... | Object manipulation; CAGD | 1985 |

Hibler, Michael J. | Separating presentation from interface in RPC and IDLs | In RPC-based communication, we term the interface the set of remote procedures and the types of their arguments; the presentation is the way these procedures and types are mapped to the target language environment in a particular client or server, including semantic requirements. For example, pres... | RPC-based communication; IDL; Presentation; Interface | 1995 |

Elens, Robert N. | Sequencing computational events in heterogeneous distributed systems | Distributed systems are growing in number, size, and complexity. Some technological advances have been made to program these systems, most notably the remote procedure call. However, the nature of heterogeneous distributed systems allows for much more complex interactions and new programming techno... | Sequencing; Computational events; Heterogeneous distributed systems | 1990 |

Zhu, Xiaohong | Automatic compensating cleanup operation | Today's part geometries are becoming ever more complex and require more accurate tool path to manufacture. Machining process efficiency is also a major consideration for designers as well as manufacturing engineers.

Balasubramonian, Rajeev | Non-uniform power access in large caches with low-swing wires | Modern processors dedicate more than half their chip area to large L2 and L3 caches and these caches contribute significantly to the total processor power. A large cache is typically split into multiple banks and these banks are either connected through a bus (uniform cache access - UCA) or an on-c... | Large caches; Low-swing wires; Non Uniform Cache Access; NUCA | 2009 |

Parker, Steven G.; Hansen, Charles D. | Interactive volume rendering of large datasets using the silicon graphics Onyx4 visualization system | Many recent approaches to interactive volume rendering have focused on leveraging the power of commodity graphics hardware. Though currently limited to relatively small datasets, these approaches have been overwhelmingly successful. As the size of volumetric datasets continues to grow at a rapid pa... | Volume visualization; Onyx4; Interactive volume rendering; Parallel volume rendering; Large datasets; Visualization systems | 2005 |

Sudan, Kshitij | Understanding the behavior of Pthread applications on non-uniform cache architectures | Why is it important? As number of cores in a processor scale up, caches would become banked Keeps individual look-up time small. Allows parallel accesses by different cores. Present shared programming model assumes a flat memory. Unaware application can have sub-optimal performance Conclusion ... | Computer architecture, compiler analysis, NUCA caches | 2011-10-08 |

Henderson, Thomas C. | Instrumented sensor system architecture | Sensor systems are becoming ubiquitous throughout society, yet their design, construction and operation is still more of an art than a science.

Gopalakrishnan, Ganesh | Static analysis techniques for the synthesis of efficient asynchronous circuits | In the context of deriving asynchronous circuits from high-level descriptions, determining whether two actions are potentially concurrent (overlapped execution) or serial (non-overlapped execution) has several advantages.
