A framework for building spatiotemporal applications in Java
(2001)
A relatively new area of study that first received attention during the past decade explores how spatiotemporal data can be efficiently used in applications and stored in databases. Spatial data includes the locations or ...
Extraction of surface texture data from low quality photographs to aid the construction of virtual reality models of archaeological sites
(2001)
A tool has been designed and implemented to use information extracted from photographs captured using uncalibrated cameras (so-called casual photographs) to fill the occlusions which occur in three-dimensional models of ...
Symbolic techniques for the performance analysis of generalised stochastic petri nets
(2001)
Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) have been successfully used in sequential circuit theory, VLSI, and model checking. They form a highly memory efficient canonical representation of a Boolean function. In this dissertation, ...
Presence and co-presence in collaborative virtual environments
(2001)
Presence in Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVEs) can be defined into personal presence and co-presence. Personal presence is having a feeling of "being there" in the CVE yourself. Co-presence is having a feeling that ...
A novel technique for modelling interfaces in reinforced brittle materials
(Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Fracture Mechanics of Concrete Structures (FRAMCOS4)Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Fracture Mechanics of Concrete Structures (FRAMCOS4), 2001)
A novel numerical technique for the modelling of interfaces is introduced for the analysis of reinforced brittle materials. The method exploits the partition of unity property of finite element shape functions. By considering ...
