We present RayCore, a mobile ray-tracing hardware architecture. RayCore facilitates high-
quality rendering effects, such as reflection, refraction, and shadows, on mobile devices by …

The management of heterogeneous distributed sensor networks requires new solutions that
can address the problem of automatically fusing the information coming from different …

We present a hybrid architecture, inspired by asynchronous BVH construction [1], for ray
tracing animated scenes. Our hybrid architecture utilizes heterogeneous hardware …

The kd tree data structure is implemented in a Monte Carlo (MC) molecular simulation
program to accelerate the range search for particles or interaction sites within the cutoff …

We present the surface area traversal order (SATO) metric to accelerate shadow ray
traversal. Our formulation uses the surface area of each child node to compute the TO. In this …

Quickly establishing reliable correspondence between two feature sets is a challenging task
for feature matching. However, the key to successful feature matching is not only matching …

This paper proposes a parallel computing analysis model HPM and analyzes the parallel
architecture of CPU–GPU based on this model. On this basis, we study the parallel …

In the tutorial we show the connection between rendering algorithms and sorting and
searching as classical problems studied in computer science. We provide both theoretical …

This paper presents a comparative experimental study of the multidimensional indexing
methods based on the approximation approach. We are particularly interested in the LSH …

Although regarded as a standard heuristic for constructing a kd-tree, Surface Area Heuristic
(SAH) suffers from degrading traversal performance as well as unnecessary acceleration …
