      Whitlock, Brad; Favre, Jean M.; Meredith, Jeremy S. (The Eurographics Association, 2011)
      There is a widening gap between compute performance and the ability to store computation results. Complex scientific codes are the most affected since they must save massive files containing meshes and fields for offline ...

      We present an algorithm for solving the Longest Common Subsequence problem using graphics hardware accel- eration. We identify a parallel memory access pattern which enables us to run efficiently on multiple layers of ...
    • Parallel Mesh Clustering 

      Chiosa, Iurie; Kolb, Andreas; Cuntz, Nicolas; Lindner, Marvin (The Eurographics Association, 2009)
      Fast and qualitative clustering of large polygonal surface meshes still remains one of the most demanding fields in mesh processing. Because existing clustering algorithms are very time-consuming, the use of parallel ...

      Bolstad, Mark A. (The Eurographics Association, 2014)
      This paper compares the performance of three different methodologies for a multi-threaded micropolygon-based renderer. We extend the REYES [AG99] algorithm for multi-threaded rendering, which we call CASCADE. CASCADE ...

    • Parallel Reflective Symmetry Transformation for Volume Data 

      Hong, Yuan; Shen, Han-Wei (The Eurographics Association, 2007)
      Many volume data possess symmetric features that can be clearly observed, for example, those existed in diffusion tensor image data sets. The exploitations of symmetries for volume data sets, however, are relatively limited ...
