Incremental volume rendering using hierarchical compression
(1996)
The research has been based on the thesis that efficient volume rendering of datasets, contained on the Internet, can be achieved on average personal workstations. We present a new algorithm here for efficient incremental ...
A distributed computing environment (DCE) based object request broker
(1996)
Object oriented technology has moved beyond being a tool for design and programming and is now being used to implement enterprise wide computer systems. Also, there has been a move from centralised mainframe systems to ...
An object-oriented library for shared-memory parallel simulations
(1996)
Programming shared-memory multiprocessor systems is becoming increasingly difficult as the gap between memory speed and processor speed increases. At the same time, this class of computer-based on standard microprocessors-is ...
Visualizing the memory performance of parallel programs with Chiron
(1996)
This thesis describes Chiron, visualization system which helps programmers detect memory system bottlenecks in their shared-memory parallel applications. Chiron is different from most other performance debugging tools in ...
Generalised Markovian analysis of timed transition systems
(1996)
This dissertation concerns. analytical methods for assessing the performance of concurrent systems. More specifically, it focuses on the efficient generation and solution of large Markov chains which are derived from models ...
Information visualisation
(1996)
Information visualisation uses interactive three-dimensional (3D) graphics to create an immersive environment for the exploration of large amounts of data. Unlike scientific visualisation, where the underlying physical ...
Visualizing the performance of parallel programs
(1996)
The performance analysis of parallel programs is a complex task, particularly if the program has to be efficient over a wide range of parallel machines. We have designed a performance analysis system called Chiron that ...
