In this paper we present two efficient GPU-based visual hull computation algorithms. We
compare them in terms of performance using image sets of varying size and different voxel …

This paper addresses the problem of real time 3D modeling from images with multiple
cameras. Environments where multiple cameras and PCs are present are becoming usual …

In this paper, we introduce a 3-D human-body tracker capable of handling fast and complex
motions in real-time. We build upon the Monte–Carlo Bayesian framework, and propose …

Increasingly, a number of applications rely on, or can potentially benefit from, analysis and
monitoring of data streams. Moreover, many of these applications involve high volume data …

Grimage glues multi-camera 3D modeling, physical simulation and parallel execution for a
new immersive experience. Put your hands or any object into the interaction space. It is …

This paper briefly presents the TOPCASED project which gathers industrialists, researchers,
universities and SMEs, aiming at producing a free/open-source system/software/hardware …

In distributed query processing systems, load balancing plays an important role in
maximizing system throughput. When queries can leverage cached intermediate results …

We investigate techniques for efficiently executing multiquery workloads from data and
computation-intensive applications in parallel and/or distributed computing environments. In …

The nature of distributed systems is constantly and steadily changing as the hardware and
software landscape evolves. Porting applications and adapting existing middleware systems …

Over the last 10-15 years, an important development in high-end computing has been the
increasing use of both commodity and distributed resources for solving large-scale …
