Boll, Steven F. | Suppression of acoustic noise in speech using two microphone adaptive noise cancellation | Acoustic noise with energy greater or equal to the speech is suppressed by filtering a separately recorded correlated noise signal and subtracting it from the speech waveform. This approach was investigated to determine the degree of noise suppression possible using an external correlated input. The... | Suppression; acoustic noise; adaptive noise cancellation | 1979 |

Hibler, Michael J. | Interface and execution models in the fluke kernel | We have defined and implemented a new kernel API that makes every exported operation either fully interruptible and restartable, thereby appearing atomic to the user. To achieve interruptibility, all possible states in which a thread may become blocked for a "long" time are completely representable ... | Fluke kernel; Interruptibility | 1998 |

Henderson, Thomas C. | Implementing multi-sensor systems in a functional language | We discuss a methodology for configuring systems of sensors using a functional language. To date no such general methodology exists, and existing multi-sensor systems have been hand-crafted around a particular application. Our main point is that the use of abstraction and of functional language fe... | Multi-sensor systems; Multisensor systems | 1984 |

Hansen, Charles D.; Shirley, Peter S. | Parallel point reprojection | Improvements in hardware have recently made interactive ray tracing practical for some applications. However, when the scene complexity or rendering algorithm cost is high, the frame rate is too low in practice.
